From Ukraine With Elegance: LEX Vodka as the New Icon of Taste

Nemiroff is a historic vodka brand with a 150-year legacy, available on five continents. The distillery's roots in Nemyriv, Ukraine, date back over 100 years before Mendeleev's famous vodka research. From the very beginning, the brand has followed the same principles that defined it centuries ago – natural ingredients, finest grains, bespoke quality and continuous innovation. These principles remain unchanged to this day, ensuring that every bottle reflects the brand’s unwavering dedication to excellence.
The town, owned by the Potocki family since the 17th century, was known for honey tinctures served at diplomatic events, likely the precursor to honey and pepper vodka.
The distillery was first mentioned in 1797, operated by local entrepreneurs using natural ingredients and traditions.
The distillery gained fame for its quality and craftsmanship, and by 1872, it became the largest in Podillia, known for producing high-quality grain alcohol, making it a key exporter in the region.

Nemiroff’s legacy is built on resilience, craftsmanship, and a deep respect for tradition. Through a lot of years, brand has remained true to its origins — producing vodka that embodies purity, character, and strength. Starting with a pure vision and absolutely no preconceptions, Nemiroff proudly introduces its latest Masterpiece release, LEX by Nemiroff – ultra-premium vodka created after 3 years of research by 6 distillery masters. LEX is the culmination of generations of expertise, modern technology, and a relentless pursuit of perfection. It represents a new chapter in the Nemiroff story — where Ukrainian heritage meets modern luxury.

After more than three years of research by six Distillery Masters with a combined experience of over 150 years in vodka production, the recipe for LEX by Nemiroff has been perfected. Through a process that incorporates the distillation of botanicals from linden flowers and honey into the traditional vodka distillation, a product of exceptional complexity was created — offering consumers a new perspective on vodka. Thirteen stages of liquid filtration, including filtration through amber, silver, and platinum, culminate in a six-month resting period, allowing the spirit to achieve ultimate smoothness. This meticulously crafted drink, made with natural ingredients and pure water, represents the next evolution of LEX — a bottle that reflects Nemiroff’s commitment to quality and innovation in every drop of LEX by Nemiroff.

Given LEX by Nemiroff complexity, the production process is intricate and comprises few key elements.

A unique feature of LEX by Nemiroff is botanical distillation using a traditional alembic still. Alembic distillation is a time-honored method favored by premium distilleries. It produces an aromatic spirit, a technique also used in perfume making. The resulting distillate includes the "head," "heart," and "tail." Our distillery masters select only the heart — the purest part — to capture delicate aromatic notes. According to European regulations, when aromatic spirits and flavorings are added to vodka, it typically falls into the category of flavored vodka. By using distillation of botanicals, LEX by Nemiroff remains in the category of classic vodka — and that’s part of what makes it truly unique. This aromatic spirit is blended into the final liquid, adding a subtle floral aroma and flavor while allowing LEX to remain a classic clear vodka.

LEX by Nemiroff undergoes an extraordinary purification process that sets it apart in the world of premium vodka. The spirit is carefully filtered through thirteen meticulous stages, including rare and precious materials such as amber, silver, and platinum. Each filtration step refines the liquid further, removing impurities while enhancing its delicate character and clarity. Following this, LEX is allowed to rest for six months, a crucial period during which the vodka harmonizes and matures, achieving unparalleled smoothness and balance. This patient aging ensures every sip delivers a velvety texture and a sophisticated finish, embodying the perfect union of tradition and innovation. The result is a vodka that is as refined in flavor as it is in spirit—an exceptional experience in every drop.

Each LEX by Nemiroff bottle is treated with exceptional care. Specifically, every bottle is placed by hand on the bottling line, then meticulously embellished and boxed by our distillery artisans. The bottle itself is crafted in France from fine French perfume glass — a material long associated with elegance, precision, and artisanal craftsmanship. Like in perfumery, the design of the bottle complements the luxurious nature of the liquid it holds. It reflects not only the premium character of LEX by Nemiroff but also elevates its presence as a true symbol of refined lifestyle and exclusivity.
