Hennessy VS X Lebron James Limited Edition Cognac
Hennessy V.S x LeBron James Limited Edition Cognac pairs the world's most recognised cognac house with one of the most decorated athletes of his generation. The collaboration wraps Hennessy's signature V.S blend in a bold, basketball-inspired bottle design that reflects LeBron's on-court legacy and off-court philanthropy — a collectible release for both cognac drinkers and sports fans.
Inside the bottle is the familiar V.S profile: a blend of eaux-de-vie aged up to 8 years in French oak, delivering toasted almond, fresh grape, light vanilla, and a warm oak finish. It is medium-bodied and approachable, with enough spine to cut through a cocktail and enough elegance to sip over a large cube. A natural choice for a classic Sidecar, a cognac-and-ginger highball, or a simple neat pour when the occasion calls for it.
Hennessy has been producing cognac in the commune of Cognac, France since 1765, and this partnership with LeBron James continues a tradition of collaborations with cultural icons. If you're already pouring Hennessy V.S.O.P or X.O, this limited edition sits one step below in the range but carries the added value of a limited-run package. Stock is finite and the bottle is built to be kept.

Why Gifted Pour recommends it
For the friend who follows every playoff run and appreciates a good pour, this bottle brings two passions together in one gift. The basketball-inspired design celebrates LeBron James's on-court legacy and off-court philanthropy, and it is built to be kept on a shelf long after the last glass. Inside is Hennessy's signature V.S blend, eaux-de-vie aged up to 8 years in French oak. The nose offers crisp apple, juicy grape and a hint of citrus, then toasted almond and roasted coffee bean as it opens. The palate brings cinnamon, clove, vanilla and caramelized sugar over a mellow, woodsy undertone, finishing with sweet spice and dried fruit. It suits a birthday, a big-game watch party, a promotion or Father's Day, especially for a recipient who likes options. They can sip it neat from a tulip glass, pour it over a large cube, or shake it into a Sidecar. Because it comes in a limited-edition package, it feels like a considered pick rather than a default bottle.
Pairs well with
- Big-game watch party — The basketball-inspired bottle is a centerpiece for the occasion, and Sidecars built on its bright fruit and spice are easy to share with a crowd.
- Father's Day gift — Notes of caramelized sugar, vanilla and toasted almond make it a warm, approachable sipper for a dad who enjoys a slow pour over ice.
- Almond biscotti and espresso — The cognac's toasted almond and roasted coffee bean notes echo the nutty cookie and the coffee for a well-matched after-dinner pour.
