Lagos, NIGERIA, 25th October, 2019 – Hennessy hosted an exclusive preview to celebrate the limited-edition Hennessy Very Special bottle in commemoration of Hennessy Artistry’s 10th anniversary, featuring a carafe decorated by the Nigerian urban artist known as Osa Seven to celebrate this important milestone.
The Night was as bold and vibrant as the stunning carafe created by Osa Seven and it was well attended by various industry pioneers across Music, Media and the Creative Arts space.

The event hosted by Jimmie, had in attendance Falz, Vector, Illbliss, Olisa Adibua, Ycee, Sasha P, Dj Obi, Toni Tones, Anto Lecky, Ayoola, Elozonam and many others.
“Hennessy Artistry longevity and success is a testament to the strength of our devotion to strengthen and promote artistic content within the Nigerian creative space.

Our 10th anniversary celebrations will definitely leave a lasting impression in the minds of our consumers.” says Wole Awoleke – Brand Manager, Hennessy & Spirits, Moet Hennessy Nigeria.
The limited-edition bottle will serve as a memento for Hennessy patrons as each of the Limited-edition bottles have a unique number inscribed on the bottle, allowing collectors to have bottles with numbers special to them. The rest of Hennessy’s celebrations this year will focus heavily on the Limited-Edition bottles – a pop up store from 7th – 10th November, club tours towards the end of November and the FINALE CONCERT on the 14th of December 2019.
The pop up will host Osa Seven, Patoranking and Falz to make that already Very Special bottle of Hennessy even more special at the Ikeja City Mall. The headliners for the concert will also be announced in the following weeks.
