Fleret Meruňkovice 18Y 0,5L 50%

Fleret Apricot Brandy 18Y represents the pinnacle of distilling artistry and proof that time can turn a good distillate into something exceptional. This limited edition gem has been aged for a full 18 years in small stainless steel tanks, where it has gradually acquired depth, harmony, and a velvety texture.

The limited series consists of 5,500 bottles, making this apricot brandy not only an exceptional tasting experience, but also a collector's item.

Tasting profile:

The basis is carefully selected, perfectly ripe apricots with a high content of aromatic substances. Thanks to long maturation, their natural fruitiness has transformed into a complex, full-bodied and elegant taste with a long finish. The aroma blends ripe apricot with a subtle hint of honey and a mature fruit depth that only time can offer.

Awards:

Its quality is confirmed by a gold medal from the Spirit International Prestige Awards (Irvine, California, 2019).

Fleret Apricot Brandy 18Y is intended for slow enjoyment at room temperature, ideally as a representative gift or as a dignified conclusion to a festive moment.

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.
