Camus – DARK & STORMY

Camus House has created Dark & Stormy, a unique cognac born from a historical storm on the island of Ré.

The island, located not far from the Cognac region, occasionally experiences storms of such magnitude that ocean water floods its vineyards. The limestone and sandy soils were temporarily saturated with salt and minerals. In 2010, a major storm occurred, and Camus used the grapes harvested that year to produce a cognac with extraordinary maritime characteristics. To tell this extraordinary story, we collaborated with illustrator Yroslav Shkriblyak, who captured the impetuous spirit of the ocean through his style on the label and packaging.

This illustration shows each element of the island naturally displayed.

To create the packaging, we envisioned the primary and secondary packaging as a second skin, providing a unique sensory experience for this exceptional cognac.
