Arak Touma 500ml

Production:
Arak Touma is a premium Lebanese arak, crafted with a rich tradition of Lebanese distillation. Produced in the Beqaa Valley, a region known for its fertile lands and ideal climate for growing grapes, Arak Touma is made from high-quality, hand-selected grapes. The arak undergoes a meticulous distillation process that includes infusing the spirit with aniseed and aging it in clay amphorae, which imparts a unique and smooth character to the final product.

ABV: 50%

Tasting Notes:
Arak Touma offers a distinctive aroma of aniseed with subtle hints of herbal and citrus notes. On the palate, it delivers a rich, smooth flavor with a pronounced anise character, balanced by hints of licorice and a touch of grape sweetness. The finish is clean and refreshing, with a lingering herbal note that highlights the traditional craftsmanship of the spirit.

Pairing:
Arak Touma is best enjoyed with a variety of Lebanese meze, including grilled meats, olives, and fresh vegetables. It pairs exceptionally well with traditional dishes such as kebabs and falafel. Its robust flavor also complements strong cheeses and spiced nuts.

Serving Tips:
Serve Arak Touma chilled or at room temperature. Traditionally, it is diluted with cold water, which transforms the clear spirit into a milky, opaque beverage, enhancing its flavors and aromas. It is also commonly served with ice, which slightly dilutes the spirit and brings out its aromatic qualities. Enjoy it as a refreshing aperitif or as part of a traditional Lebanese meal.
