Smyrna Fresh Grape Raki 1L

Smyrna Fresh Grape Raki is produced in Turkey, a country renowned for its traditional raki distillation methods and rich cultural heritage in anise-flavored spirits.

This raki is crafted primarily from fresh grape distillates, which provide a smooth and fruity base before the infusion of aniseed.

Smyrna Fresh Grape Raki is produced through a traditional double distillation process. The first distillation extracts the essence from fresh grapes, followed by a second distillation with natural aniseed to impart its characteristic flavor. The spirit is then rested to harmonize flavors before bottling.
