Description
Camus Jubilee 5.50 Cognac: Capturing the essence of time
Jubilee 5.50 is a Cognac that captures the story of Cyril Camus and his family.
His travels forged his resolutely international view of the world and enriched his family heritage, which boasts five generations of entrepreneurs. It is to this perfect alchemy of tradition and innovation that Jubilee 5.50 pays tribute.
The Jubilee 5.50 blend is the culmination of a complex operation aimed at bringing out the organoleptic qualities of five exceptional Cognacs by blending them in perfect harmony.
Drawing his inspiration from a 1971 Cognac de Petite Champagne distilled 50 years ago and sourced from the family reserve, the Camus Cellar Master chose to blend five Cognacs, each characterized by floral, fruity, gourmet and rancio notes. These aromatic notes reflect the most distinctive aromas of Cognac in its purest form.
Jubilee 5.50 was born from the alliance of these five selected Cognacs. In a superb amber color, the five exceptional eaux-de-vie blends shine with their unique personality and bedazzling character. Blending titanium and aluminium with fine craftsmanship and through use of high precision components from the aeronautics and automobile industries, the Jubilee 5.50 line introduces new tasting rituals and nudges the traditional spirit of Cognac into a new age.
Presentation of the bottle
Only 50 bottles will be produced - a number that celebrates the jubilee of a man who now shares the legacy of the generations that preceded him. Fifty, symbolises harmony, creativity and open-mindedness in a constantly changing world. Made from a 6060 aluminium tube, usually used in the boating and aeronautics industries, the Jubilee 5.50 presentation case features a contemporary design for the Cognac.
More than a case, it is a ritual in itself. The time zones carved around the metal frame expose the crystal decanter. You can imagine it, catch a glimpse of it, but its full splendour will only be revealed to those who can unlock its secrets.
The Héritage Paraison decanter, created in 1931 by Georges Chevallier, highlights the beauty of Cognac. Its pure form captures the light like never before. Its elegant base is designed to match the bottle’s generous curves. It is like a timeless chalice, preserving this precious Cognac for future generations to come.
In total, only 45 presentation cases will be produced, meanwhile, the other 5 decanters are offered exclusively as part of the one-of-a-kind Camus tasting table offering.
