Distilling & Tasting Notes

Arak XO is proudly triple distilled in handmade copper alembic stills with Pure Jezzine Spring Water from Lebanese indigenous white grapes only, using the finest aniseed in the world and aged in traditional clay jars for a period of six years. The renowned Pure Jezzine Spring Water when used in the distill gives the Arak a highly mineral taste on the palate. The Lebanese indigenous white grapes give a luscious, fruity taste which when coupled with the best aniseed gives a sweet complex note to Arak.

Our aniseed is brought in from the Syrian village of Heeneh, famed for producing the best aniseed in the world. We harvest our grapes at the optimal level of maturity, ensuring lower alcohol content, thus paying the penalty of producing lower yields of Eau de Vie, but ensuring the ideal smoothness. When mixed with water color changes to snow white and on the nose displaying a bouquet of licorice and dry aniseed aromas. In the mouth it displays a mixture of raisins, aniseed, licorice with sweet dryness in the aft palate.

Food Pairing: As an aperitif and with Lebanese Mezza, Spanish seafood tapas, raw meat, raw fish, barbecued
meat or chicken, green salads and an assortment of pickles.

Almaza Pilsner Beer includes delicate aromas of grain and corn waft from the glass. And that’s not really surprising, when you discover that the brewery states “corn makes up to 25%” of the grain bill. But give the beer a few vigorous swirls to bring some of its head back. And you’ll soon discover that it also brings light notes of honey and flora, with grassy hints.

That light, delicate character also carries into Almaza Pilsener Beer’s flavor.

A really clear and honest arak from Lebanon. And despite its intense and impulsive personality, this arak still seems very approachable. Accordingly, even a little too seductive. Because once you start drinking it, some people might find it hard to stop. Especially if the the arak is drunk chilled and of course with ice cubes in the summer.

However, this brandy can be drunk with numerous dishes. Among them, of course, raw meat such as tartar or carpaccio. However, this arak is indeed one of the few varieties that can be drunk on its own.
