JAKARTA, OCTOBER 16, 2015 – Hennessy Artistry today brought together six local artists- Andien, Mario Ginanjar, Teza Sumendra, Giselle, Radhini, and Jevin Julian-into Empirica Jakarta, treating cognac and music enthusiasts to a sensory-load experience that celebrates the ultimate mixing of sound, sight, and taste.

About Hennessy
Richard Hennessy, an Irish officer serving in the army of Louis XV, founded the Hennessy cognac distillery in Cognac, France, in 1765. He foresaw the potential for his exceptional cognac to define excellence beyond the borders of France and did his first deliveries to America in 1792. Today, Hennessy conveys the world’s finest cognacs to the four corners of the globe. Hennessy produces only qualified cognacs—made from at least 90 percent of the white-wine Saint-Emillion grape varieties that are grown in a unique environment, in a strictly controlled area of Southwest France. A traditional double-distillation process in Charentais copper stills is carried out to produce the finest eaux-de-vie for the House of Hennessy, which will then be aged in special oak casks and stored in specific barrels. The aging processes vary from two to 200 years.
