Fragrant, layered, and complex. Silky smooth. More rose pedals... They said that this bottle is 25-130 years old. And I personally witness the Hennessy website went from this declaration to simply remove all ages from all of their bottle descriptions. So I have a feeling, that as time progresses, there will be less contents over one hundred years old, and fewer from the 19th century. Even if any trace of 130 year old cognac were to be detectable in future bottles, we know that in 10 more years, by default, the 130 year old cognac in the 2030 bottle would put it into the 1900s.

Dat valt mij eigenlijk toch wel redelijk tegen, dat die karamel zo duidelijk aanwezig is. Precies of Emmanuel heeft het flesje karamel uit zijn handen laten glippen in het vat van de Générations laten vallen. Ik heb mijn zoon dit blind laten proeven en hij dacht zelfs maple syrup te proeven ... En ik kan het hem niet eens kwalijk nemen. Die karamel doet die Générations echt wel te zoet smaken. Ik dacht er aanvankelijk over na om ook hun Secrets de Famille te kopen, maar als ze daar ook al karamel in gaan mengen dan hoeft het voor mij niet.

I think this generation of Paradis has only eaux de vies from 30 to 100 years old. I believe only the older versions were up to 130 years old. Former forum member Don Henny told me so.They want to preserve their oldest stocks as much as possible.

Yes, I have also heard that the new Paradis is not as old as the older version; especially the Paradis Extra. It’s great to know the exact numbers though. Thanks. A lot of people are fascinated by the 100 year old claims.

I must say it is still a great blend that Paradis, very smooth and feminine. Not many cognacs can match such finesse
