Russia may sure be the land of vodka but the French cognac has made its way into the celebrations of the wealthy class, who love to flaunt the crystal-encrusted cognac bottle with a stylish chest. Hennessy, the leading cognac brand, has recently offered the luxurious Beaute du Siecle, a flamboyant treasure chest that comes complete with equally lavish items, a Baccarat bottle filled with a blend of Cognac dating back to 1907. Only 100 are being made, designed by the French artist Jean-Michel Othoniel and would be put out to sale for $220,000, and delivered personally by a Hennessy board member. You can also witness the Hennessy’s Ellipse, a $10,000 Baccarat decanter that is a mixture of Cognacs ranging through the seven generations of Hennessy’s blenders. Consuming 5.3 million bottles by July, Russia has placed itself at the No. 7 slot in the market of Cognac.
