To mark Chinese New Year 2026 and the arrival of the Year of the Horse, Hennessy unveils a new limited-edition collection featuring Hennessy V.S.O.P and Hennessy X.O. Each expression is decorated with a dynamic interpretation of the horse, a symbol of energy, freedom, and forward momentum.
The design is presented in metallic copper accents and deep mineral tones, set against a flowing red palette. The galloping horse reflects elegance and strength, capturing movement and optimism in celebration of the Year of the Horse.
Inspired by Eastern philosophy and the ideas of perspective, energy, and freedom, the artwork invites personal interpretation. Sculpted forms and open spaces encourage viewers to engage with the design, reflecting the layered complexity and evolving character of Hennessy’s cognacs.
Hennessy’s relationship with China dates back to 1859, when the Maison first shipped Old Pale Cognac to China. Over the years, Hennessy has continued to honour Chinese culture through key milestones and creative collaborations, from the introduction of Hennessy X.O in 1872 to cultural initiatives such as the Spirit of Hennessy in Shanghai and the Hennessy X.O Silk Road journey.
“The Year of the Horse represents energy, optimism, and forward momentum,” said Laura Drozdowski Lot, Marketing Director of Moët Hennessy Southeast Asia. “These values resonate strongly with Hennessy’s spirit and our deep-rooted connection with Chinese New Year celebrations. Through this collection, we celebrate a legacy shaped by shared cultural inspiration.”
The limited-edition Hennessy Chinese New Year 2026 collection, featuring Hennessy V.S.O.P and Hennessy X.O, will be available in Indonesia at all Red & White shops nationwide from January 2026.
