The hip-hop world has walked hand-in-hand with Hennessy for decades, seeing reigning stars constantly support the cognac brand.

To celebrate the 50th anniversary of hip-hop, Hennessy has teamed up with East Coast rapper Nas to release an exclusive Hennessy V.S bottle. The eccentric bottle lab pays tribute to the history of hip-hop and its expansion across the globe.

Nas has been in the game for over 20 years, seeing him launch chart-topping albums that hit platinum and gold status internationally. Hennessy has supported the rise of hip-hop since its establishment, becoming synonymous with the music genre and the people that define it.

The duo’s limited-edition Hennessy bottle is a love letter to hip-hop and is portrayed with a hand-written note by Nas. The aged label boasts trademark branding and Nas’ face alongside orange, white, and black splotches. Finally, the boxed packaging dons spirited “HenNASsy” lettering with NYC-inspired graffiti art accents.

The Nas x Hennessy V.S bottle will be available to purchase in July 2023 at select retailers worldwide.
