Camus 'XO Elegance' Cognac

Creating Camus XO Elegance requires years of meticulous work. The process starts with the careful selection of different styles of hugely rich eaux-de-vie from all six of the Cognac crus (Borderies, Petite Champagne, Bons Bois, Grande Champagne, Fins Bois, Bois à Terroirs). The presence of the Borderies cru among these eaux-de-vie gives the Cognac a rounder flavor and greater aromatic length. Long aging in cool, damp cellars ensures that each barrel gains a perfect level of maturity. A meticulous blending process finally reveals the Cognac’s personality in all its glory: a myriad of complex, harmonious aromas.

The flower-scented bouquet enriched by dried fruit and crunchy almonds already provide a harmony of the senses. This full and stimulating fragrance of the Camus XO Elegance Cognac also continues in the mouth. Here hazelnuts can be clearly discovered which emulate with a gentle hint of vanilla beans. Like a coat, the aroma of ripe plum lies down on the tongue and gives a rich and round body to the tasters.

The finish is smooth, long-lasting and spicy. The sweet facets of vanilla beans and plums linger. The almonds come more to the fore, accompanied by slightly peppery sounds and a touch of oak. This Camus XO in addition boasts a soothing resonance which remains very positive in memory for a long while.
