The Camus Prestige Jubilée Cognac is an extraordinary Premier Cru blend, created in 1913 by Edmond Camus, the son of the founder of Camus Cognac. This Prestige Cognac was created to mark the 50th anniversary of the house, making it an extraordinary bottle for any collector to own. In classic Grande Champagne style, this is a Cognac which has aged with elegance; its rich notes of oak, leather and honey show a level of integration that can only come from decades of maturation in Limousin oak.

The Baccarat Crystal decanter, designed by Serge Manseau, is as impressive as its contents. With a multifaceted, cutaway design, a thin rope decoration on the neck and an oversized crystal stopper, this is a bottle to admire time and time again.
