In 2000, CAMUS launched EXTRA El\u00e9gance: an ambitious Cognac whose contemporary design has left its mark on the history of Cognac. Now, with Extra Dark & Intense, EXTRA reveals its darker side. <\/p>\n

The mystery of Camus EXTRA Dark & Intense lies in the eaux-de-vie meticulously selected by its Maitre de Chai, and in the casks that are racked, opened and then gently exposed to an open flame at a controlled temperature. This action regenerates the barrels’ aromatic potential. A highly specific aging process for an intense, spicy finish. <\/p>\n

\"extra_dark\"Based on the idea of offering an intense, spicy version of Extra in the same way as a more intense fragrance in perfumery, Patrick L\u00e9ger – the Cellar Master at Maison CAMUS – selected the eaux-de-vie and the casks in which they are stored on the basis of very specific characteristics.<\/p>\n

The idea is then to assign them a very specific ageing process. Each selected barrel is carefully racked, then opened by the Master Cooper to be re-toasted, in order to regenerate its full aromatic potential. This delicate and meticulous operation is carried out on a barrel-by-barrel basis. <\/p>\n

The casks are then filled with their original Cognac for a special finishing phase, in which the Cognac acquires its full complexity. Rich and spicy, this Extra could hardly be called anything else than Dark & Intense. <\/p>\n

Robe: sparkling, with hints of mahogany and topaz.
\nNose: solid and powerful, with notes of cr\u00e8me br\u00fbl\u00e9e, gingerbread and toasted macadamia nuts.
\nPalate: intense, with creamy, buttery notes, a robust, persistent finish marked by notes of subtly spicy bitter chocolate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
