Obama is the man of the moment indeed. Everybody across the world is celebrating him so why should a major brand like Hennessy Cognac stay behind. Well, they haven’t as their collector-edition is out. Buzz is that 180,000 of them were produced to honour the 44th American president.
Not just that, Hennessy is all set to spread the goodwill spirit that Obama stands for. Well, this individually numbered bottle priced at just $30 will have a percentage of the total proceeds will bt going to the Thurgood Marshall College Fund. After all, isn’t that the college that prepares most of America’s leaders!
You can get your bottle in Washington D.C., Maryland, Illinois, New York City and Georgia. People overseas should not worry as eBay comes to their rescue, as always! We know you might say that the president-elect isn’t much of a drinker but for those of us who are, isn’t it just a great way to join in the celebrations. By the way, NY Magazine’s Grub Street would like us to believe that Obama is a whisky kindah man. Well, someone should remember to ask him in the next press con.

PLEASE! While I too wish that Obama were a Whisky drinker, you know that Hennessy is a black man’s drink. Get real now.
