Description
Created by visionary distiller Walid Azar, L’arak 12 YO Gold Flakes represents the pinnacle of artisanal Lebanese spirits. The journey begins in the high-altitude vineyards of Niha village in the Bekaa Valley, where organically grown Obaidy grapes are left to over-ripen. This late harvest concentrates the natural sugars, resulting in a naturally sweeter, more complex base spirit.
Artisanal Craftsmanship
The production adheres to strict ancestral traditions:
Pure Distillation: The grapes are matured and fermented without stems to ensure a clean, elegant profile, then distilled in a traditional copper alembic (karkeh).
Fresh Anise: Only the finest green anise seeds are used, harvested and distilled within three days to capture their vibrant, essential oils.
The Aging Process: Unlike mass-produced spirits, this arak is aged for 12 years in traditional clay jars, a process that mellows the 60% alcohol content and allows the flavors to marry perfectly.
A Luxurious Experience
Every 520ml bottle is a statement of opulence, containing delicate gold flakes sourced from France. When water is added (recommended 1 part arak to 2–3 parts water), the spirit transforms into a milky-white “louche,” with the gold flakes shimmering through the glass. It is a full-bodied, silky-smooth arak with a long, refreshing anise finish, designed for the most discerning connoisseurs.
