Camus VSOP owes its fabulous aromatic character to a blend of wines distilled with some of the lees. This technique requires great expertise, and ensures a remarkable aromatic intensity. The eaux-de vie are then aged in barrels selected for their mild tannins. Particular attention is paid to the toast of the barrels, to ensure that the fruity and floral aromas express themselves to the full whilst also adding a hint of spices and vanilla.

An audacious combination. Martell Blue Swift is a spirit drink made of cognac VSOP then finished in Bourbon casks. Through Martell's signature distillation process, the eaux-de-vie absorbs the rich aromatic tones of the bourbon cask. The result is Martell's hallmark style - delicate notes of candied fruit and plum - complemented by the subtle sweetness of vanilla and toasted oak from the casks. Exceptionally smooth, with a rounded taste and unique character.

Aroma: Gourmet notes of banana and caramelised pear introduce the subtle sweetness of vanilla, coconut and spices.
Palate: A sensation of fullness and generosity with notes of ginger and candied fruit, followed by distinctive hints of toasted oak from the bourbon casks.
