Legatus Old Bee Gin is an original gin inspired by the Old Tom style, combining dry Beskydy gin with late honey from a local beekeeper. The result is a delicately sweet, harmonious, and full-bodied gin flavor with a distinctive character.
Production:
The base is a distillate from a macerate of carefully selected herbs and spices typical of the Beskydy region. After distillation, the gin is enriched with high-quality honey from the Beskydy Mountains, which gives it roundness, smoothness, and a slightly floral undertone. The honey is not just a sweetener here—it is an integral part of the flavor profile.
Tasting profile:
The taste combines the freshness of juniper with herbal depth and a subtle hint of honey. Compared to classic dry gin, it is fuller, smoother, and more accessible, without losing its typical gin structure.
Legatus Old Bee Gin is an exceptional product in the gin category – ideal for drinking on its own, in an elegant Gin & Tonic, or in cocktails where its honey alchemy shines through.
Made with a love of gin in the heart of the Beskydy Mountains.
About the Fleret distillery:
The roots of fruit distillate production in Frenštát pod Radhoštěm date back to 1850, when the Velkopalírna pravé slovácké slivovice a borovičky (Large Distillery of Genuine Slovácko Plum Brandy and Juniper Brandy) was established here. After nationalization in 1948, production was interrupted, but in 1993 it was resumed thanks to the knowledge of the last blender of the original distillery. Today, the FLERET distillery continues this tradition, combining historical recipes with modern technologies.
The basis of production is the selection of first-class fruit, crystal-clear Beskydy water, and rigorous control of every step of production. FLERET produces both traditional fruit distillates and spirits, as well as the premium Collection 1850 and BESKYD 1129 series. The brand's products regularly win awards at prestigious international competitions, for example in London, San Francisco, and Hong Kong.
Production takes place in a modern plant in Frenštát pod Radhoštěm, which is continuously being expanded technologically. Nevertheless, the distillery maintains a personal approach to each bottle. FLERET thus represents a combination of more than 170 years of tradition, the regional identity of the Beskydy Mountains, and contemporary demands for quality and design.
