  • Eight Generations of Hennessys N°1 Eight Generations of Hennessys
    N°1 EIGHT GENERATIONS OF HENNESSYS N°1 EIGHT GENERATIONS OF HENNESSYS Richard, James, Maurice... 1724-1800: Richard Hennessy The patriarch and founder. After fighting in the army of King Louis XV, he settled in Cognac and created the Hennessy trading com- pany in 1765. 1765-1843: James-Jacques Hennessy The visionary. With his partner, Samuel Turner, Richard’s oldest son structured the company and determined the criteria that would define the brand’s identity: expertise, the will to lead, a dedication to excellence – from the quality of the barrels to the methods of shipping. 1795-1845: James Hennessy, then in 1800-1879: Auguste Hennessy The sons of “James I” inherited values they would pass on to the Hennessy “dynasty”. In particular, the spirit of conquest that, beginning in the nineteenth century, enabled the Maison to expand across five continents. 1835-1905: Maurice Hennessy The innovator who worked in partnership with his Master Blender Emile Fillioux, introducing the star-based classification system, revolutionising shipping methods, creating X.O. At the end of the 1880s, his initiative was decisive in saving Hennessy from the phyl- loxera crisis that had started in the Seventies. With the help of scientists, his son James continued his work, benefitting the entire industry. 1867-1945:James Hennessy, then in 1874-1944:Jean Hennessy James and Jean gave their all to speed up the restoration of the Charente vineyards, decimated by phylloxera, and to reorganise the cognac industry in such a way that it could bounce back under optimum conditions. James was a senator for Charente and Jean a député, a minister and an Ambassador of France.

    NICHOLAS FAITH’S GUIDE TO COGNAC NICHOLAS FAITH’S GUIDE TO COGNAC CONTENTS Introduction 5 Land, vine, wine 19 The personality of cognac 41 The producers and their brandies 57 Cognac recipes 122 INTRODUCTION THE UNIQUENESS OF COGNAC In winter you can tell you are in cognac country when you turn off the N10, the old road between Bordeaux and Paris at the little town of Barbezieux and head towards Cognac. The landscape does not change dramatically; it is more rounded, perhaps a little more hilly, than on the road north from Bordeaux, and the vines are thicker on the ground. But the major indicator has nothing to do with the sense of sight. It has to do with the sense of smell. During the distillation season from November to March the whole night-time atmosphere is suffused with an unmistakable aroma, a warm smell that is rich, grapey, almost palpable. It emanates from dozens of otherwise unremarkable groups of farm buildings, distinguished only by the lights burning as the new brandy is distilled. Cognac emerges from the gleaming copper stills in thin, transparent trickles, tasting harsh and oily, raw yet recognisably the product of the vine. If anything, it resembles grappa; but what for the Italians is a saleable spirit is merely an intermediate product for the Cognacais. Before they consider it ready for market it has to be matured in oak casks. Most of the spirits, described by the more poetically minded locals as ‘sleeping beauties’, are and dashed the precious liquid to the floor to ensure that destined to be awakened within a few years and sold off as the glass was free from impurities.

  • TEXT of the INTRODUCTORY ADDRESS Delivered by PROFESSOR J.J
    TEXT OF THE INTRODUCTORY ADDRESS delivered by PROFESSOR J.J. LEE, in University College Cork on 8 June, 2007, on the occasion of the conferring of the Degree of Doctor of Laws, honoris causa, on TED MURPHY A Leas-Sheansailéir, a mhuintir na hOllscoile agus a dhaoine uaisle, Cork enjoyed a prominent place in the wine trade long before the great scatterings after Kinsale in 1601, and even more after Limerick in 1691 and the broken Treaty that made the 18th century the classic period of Wild Geese and Winegeese alike. Except for four years, every Mayor of Cork between 1434 and 1644 was engaged in the wine trade, Ted Murphy tells us in A Kingdom of Wine: A Celebration of Irelandʼs Winegeese, handsomely edited and published in 2005 by Roz Crowley, and which would win the Gourmand World Cookbook Award for a wine history book, firstly in English and then in any language. Needless to say, it is studded with Cork names that resonate down to the present, Roache, Morragh, Lawton, Galwey, and McCarthy – not forgetting Hennessy for a somewhat stronger beverage – and of course there are Murphys everywhere. Although some Winegeese emigrated for purely commercial reasons, the association with the Wild Geese is not fanciful. For many of the families who made their names in Nantes, in Bordeaux, in Cognac, or in Spain, Portugal, and Madeira, left on religious or political grounds. But Tedʼs work takes us far beyond 18th century Europe, especially to Australia and above all to the United States. It was actually through the French connection that the highest circles in the infant United States became impressed by the Irish role in the wine trade, when Thomas Jefferson acquired a taste for their products as American Ambassador in France, and responded accordingly to the demands of George Washington for good wines for the White House.

  • Revising Whelan's Model of Tridentine Catholicism In
    Revising Whelan’s Model of Tridentine Catholicism in Ireland: The Experience of Cloyne Diocese, County Cork, c.1700 to 1830 Martin Millerick Department of Geography National University of Ireland, Maynooth ABSTRACT: In his pioneering research into the geographical development of Tridentine Catholicism in Ireland, Whelan (1988) identifies two contrasting regions. From a core region located mainly in the south and east, innovations in Catholic thought and practice are presented as having diffused outwards geographically and downwards socially. The north and west of Ireland, however, is presented as having been slower in adapting to these changes. This paper finds that Cloyne Diocese may be broadly, yet not totally located within the core region given that the west of the diocese looks more like Whelan’s periphery. Further analysis of this diocese suggests that contrasting one region as dynamic and active vis-a-vis another as lagging or passive is misleading since both regions are demonstrated to have been dynamic, albeit in different ways. These different paths were also influenced by the colonial and class relations within and through which Tridentine Catholicism interacted. n his pioneering research on the geographical development of Tridentine Catholicism in Ireland, Kevin Whelan (1988) identifies two contrasting regions.1 One, a core region located mainly in Ithe south and east of Ireland, is presented as materially wealthier and more urbanized; with deeply rooted Catholic and crypto-Catholic landed families, a large, commercialized Catholic tenant farming class, merchants and other professionals providing patronage and leadership for their church. Its enduring social, cultural, and economic ties with continental Europe were also significant.
