VSOP Cognac from the House of Camus, made including a portion of Borderies eaux-de-vie, which Camus is well-known for using in their expressions.
Yellow plum, raisin, vanilla, almonds and walnuts.
My first Camus, but definitely not my last, complex notes on the nose with an overall smooth finish for a warming winter cognac, this is definitely going to be one of my staples now for a regular but very reasonably priced cognac, I usually defer to Remy Martin Vsop but this is a superb challenger
Very floral, fruity and aromatic. Has a certain complexity and character not found on other brands. Feels very much like drinking nectar. The screw cap may be a put-off for purists who believe that cork should be the only way to stopper a bottle of fine Cognac, but is actually very sturdy and practical. In a sentence, this is my favorite VSOP Cognac.
Had this for the first time last night. It’s a useful drink: not profound, but gentle, fruity, sweet but not cloying, with little oak signature. Hides its youth and alcohol well, and surely a crowd pleaser.
