On Monday, Hennessy (link) hosted a private dinner at Neuehouse Hollywood to present “The Originals,” a program that shed a light on the creativity and ingenuity of true original brands that have shaped the trajectory of luxury as we know it.

In collaboration with like-minded partners Rolls-Royce & The Stronghold, Hennessy provided a rare glimpse at how these brands have managed to successfully transcend time, while continuing to pioneer and define what luxury means to today’s consumer.  

Hennessy

In 1870, Maurice Hennessy and 3rd generation Cellar Master Emile Filloux created an exceptional aged or “Extra Old” Cognac, the original X.O. Maurice-Richard Hennessy, 8th generation family member and global brand ambassador was there to share stories of his great-great grandfather’s contribution to Cognac – a blend that was intended for family & friends.

 

Rolls-Royce

Rolls-Royce, founded in 1906, is the original luxury automobile brand. From the early pioneering experiments of founder Sir Henry Royce, to the brand’s visionary EX models which imagine what a Rolls-Royce could be in 2040 and beyond, Rolls-Royce is constantly creating motorcars that are instantly recognizable and an icon all over the world.
