Lebanon's Ancient Spirit — Three Ingredients, Centuries of Tradition

Arak is the traditional spirit of Lebanon and the broader Middle East — a cousin to ouzo and pastis, but older and purer than both. Gantous & Abou Raad craft their Arak from just three ingredients: grape spirit, aniseeds, and water. Nothing more. The result is a distinctively clean, bright spirit with an intensely aromatic anise character that has been shared at Lebanese tables for centuries. Pour it over ice, add cold water, and watch it transform into a milky, fragrant cloud — the louche effect is part of the ritual.

Tasting Notes

  • Nose: Clean and intensely aromatic. Star anise and grape spirit lead with a bright, refreshing character and no artificial sweetness.
  • Palate: Bold and refreshing. Anise dominates with a clean, unsweetened character that opens up beautifully when diluted. The grape spirit base adds a subtle fruity depth.
  • Finish: Long and cooling. Anise and a gentle grape warmth linger with a clean, refreshing close.
