A truly exceptional blend of XO Cognac from every traditional region that’s blended to a perfection of balanced complexity.
In the early 1800s, Jean-Baptiste Camus was a small, independent wine grower who distilled some of his harvest to sell wholesale to the larger, more established Cognac houses in the region. In 1863 he organized a group of his fellow vintners to create their own line — La Grande Marque Cognac. Over the next years, the Camus family bought out their business partners and have owned and operated Camus Cognac with dedication and love for five generations.
Camus XO Elegance is a blend of XO Cognacs from all six of the traditional producing regions. It’s like a Tour de Cognac. They are aged exclusively is Limousin oak — the youngest aged a minimum of ten years with some Spirit as much as thirty years old in the mix. As you can imagine, this develops a nuanced and complex aromatic and flavor profile. Not only has this winning combination won more than a dozen major awards over the years, but it is universally admired and savored. I don’t think we’ve ever seen it get less than five stars or 90 points in any review ever.
Smartass Corner:
The six traditional Cognac-producing regions are Bois Ordinaires, Bon Bois, Fins Bois, Petite Champaign, Grand Champaign, and Bordaries. They roughly form a target-like shape in that order with Bordaries in the upper center. Each is defined by a different terroir.

The palate opens with a soft spice that blooms into a balanced complexity or orange zest, ginger, jasmine and rose, sultana, pear, and dried apricot all over a bass note of dry wood spice.

The finish is long, warm, and balanced as well with an interesting anise note arriving at the end.
