Beehive brandy dazzles with XO Gold Edition
By Miona MadsenLa Martiniquaise-Bardinet-owned French brandy Beehive has released an exclusive XO Gold Edition for the Middle East and Asian markets.

The limited edition bottling showcases the Beehive House of Fine Brandy’s blending expertise, which master blenders have perfected since its founding in 1852.
Presented in a reflective golden bottle, Beehive XO Gold Edition is designed as a statement piece highlighting the brandy’s craftsmanship.
The expression combines sweet, aged eaux-de-vie with a rare parcel distilled from Red Muscadel grapes. These grapes, which are rarely used in the brandy-making process, are said to impart honeyed notes and delicate pastry undertones to Beehive’s signature style, along with flavours of toasted oak and fig.
On the palate, the flavours are complemented by honey, candied fruit, and vanilla notes.
The brandy is best enjoyed neat at room temperature or over ice.
Léna Rusek, international senior brand manager of Beehive, said: “We are so excited to share our sumptuous Beehive XO Gold Edition with collectors and spirits lovers. From its delicate, honeyed flavours to its gleaming, golden bottle, this exclusive limited edition is an extraordinary brandy. Born from tradition, elevated by expertise – and perfected in gold.”
Offered in a 1-litre format at 40% ABV, the limited edition is now available from select retailers in the Middle East, China, and India.
In March last year, La Martiniquaise-Bardinet introduced a new modernised design for Beehive Brandy.
At The Brandy Masters 2025, Beehive was awarded three Silver medals.
