Our Story

Spirit that shaped the trade

The company Caucasus Spirits LLC was established on 2022. We produce hand-crafted Honey Spirit in small batches and our goal is to produce only premium quality products, to be outstanding in terms of quality, aroma and taste.
Our history is inseparable from the Caucasus Mountains and the abundant opportunities they have brought – forever intertwined not only with country climate, but also with the society, heritage and soul of Georgia.
Georgia is a homeland of the world known Mountain Grey Caucasian Honey Bee (Apis mellifera caucasica-Georgia). The complex climate and the vast biodiversity of flora of Georgia has led to the evolution of the breed and has given it extraordinary characteristics, making it unique compared to other honeybee breeds. The breed has the longest tongue among honey bee species, which gives it the ability to reach the nectar tissues, where no other species can.

We are proud that the history of honey cultivation in Georgia dates back at least 5,500 years, making it the oldest recorded honey cultivation. A great example of continuing this heritage is the local beekeepers, whose selection process was conducted, and long-term cooperation with them ensures a steady supply of 100% natural mountain flowers honey with the best taste qualities.”
SOMEL is a Spirit using only natural honey as the primary fermentable substrate, which represents the remarkable blend of human and nature mastery. SOMEL is crafted from finest Georgian mountain flowers honey and distilled using the exclusive MULLER AROMAT pot still. After distillation, the honey spirit rests for no less than 6 months in stainless steel tanks to allow the various components to rebalance.

2022

First Production

In the summer of 1971, high in the foothills of the Caucasus Mountains, our founding beekeepers distilled the very first small batch of honey spirit using age-old clay amphorae. By harnessing pure, wildflower nectar from Georgia’s untamed slopes, this inaugural “golden elixir” marked the birth of a tradition that would one day become Caucasus Spirits.

2025

SOMEL

In 2025, we celebrate our most ambitious release yet: a limited-edition honey spirit distilled in the exclusive MULLER AROMAT pot still and allowed to rest for no less than twelve months. This landmark expression embodies over five decades of refinement—an homage to Georgia’s millennia-old honey heritage and our unwavering commitment to premium quality.

Our Story

SOMEL is a Spirit Using only natural honey

Nestled in the shadow of the majestic Caucasus Mountains, Caucasus Spirits LLC was born from a passion for preserving Georgia’s ancient honey-making heritage and transforming it into an exceptional spirit. Founded in 2022 by a group of local artisans and beekeepers, our company set out to honor a 5,500-year-old tradition by crafting small-batch honey spirit that captures the soul of our land.

We partner with dedicated mountain beekeepers who tend the world-renowned Apis mellifera caucasica-Georgia, whose long tongues reach nectar no other bee can. Their careful selection of wildflower honey, brimming with the region’s rich biodiversity, forms the heart of our recipe. Distilled through our exclusive MULLER AROMAT pot still, the raw spirit is gently coaxed to perfection, then allowed to rest for at least six months in stainless-steel tanks so its aromas and flavors can fully harmonize.

Every bottle we produce is a testament to our unwavering commitment to quality, from hive to hand-bottled finish. With each sip, you’ll discover layers of floral richness, subtle spice, and the bright, sun-warmed sweetness only Georgian mountain honey can deliver. At Caucasus Spirits, we don’t just make a spirit—we celebrate a legacy, forging a bridge between our storied past and a future of unparalleled taste.
