We are two Houston women with deep East Texas roots and a friendship spanning more than 45 years. Both of us navigate autoimmune conditions and allergies that require avoiding grains, gluten, and nightshades, yet we still love to enjoy a great cocktail. When we couldn’t find a spirit free from those allergens, we recognized an opportunity and founded Queen Bee Distilling.

At Queen Bee, we are dedicated to crafting ultra-premium, allergen-free spirits while supporting pollinator conservation, promoting sustainability, and celebrating life’s moments. We invite you to raise a glass and join us in the buzz.

The Process

⬢ Quality Ingredients: We distill Texas raw, chemical-free honey and organic non-GMO sugar cane instead of corn, rice, barley, wheat, or potatoes. Osmia Vodka is grain-free, gluten free, additive-free, nightshade-free, and preservative-free.

⬢ Sustainability: By using honey as our source in the process, we help our environment, which saves bees, helps our ecosystems, cuts water usage, and lowers our carbon footprint.

⬢ Bees: Bees supply 80% of the world’s pollination, creating a crucial process in our food chain and are the only insect that provides food for humans – honey, which is antimicrobial and antibacterial.

⬢ Transparency: Nutritional information is displayed on the label: 98 calories per 1.5 oz / 0 grams carbs / 0 grams protein / 0 grams fat.
