Created in 1991 by Bernard & Jacques HINE, the great great great great grandsons of Thomas HINE to celebrate to bicentenary of their ancestor's arrival in France. They selected their most prestigious cognac, TRIOMPHE, for this occasion. These precious elixirs required an equally precious presentation and so they called upon master artisans, who like themselves, have inherited a centuries-old tradition. The result of this occasion is Talent.

The Talent de Thomas HINE presentation consists of :

- A crystal custom designed decanter

Created by Baccarat, one of the world's most prestigious makers of fine crystal and on which a silversmith has added a silver band. Each piece is unique and numbered by hand.

- The TRIOMPHE Grande Champagne blend

- A precious wood case

Made from Maccasar ebony from India and Honduran Mahogany accented with an inlaid tracery of violet wood. Each case is individually crafted to ensure perfection.

- A genuine cigar humidor

- 4 pure crystal tulip glasses

Created by Bernard HINE. Because of its form, its dimensions and its delicacy, this glass makes it easier to identify and enjoy the full range of aromatic components of a great cognac.
