The Spirit of the Levant
\nProduced in the heart of the Bekaa Valley, Arak Massaya is the result of a rigorous artisanal process that blends Lebanese tradition with meticulous French distillation standards. It begins with the distillation of fermented juice from indigenous Obaidy grapes, providing a naturally sweet and fruity foundation.
\nTraditional Craftsmanship & Aging
\nEvery bottle of Massaya is a product of time and patience:
\nTriple Distillation: The spirit undergoes three slow distillations in traditional Moorish copper stills (alembics). During the final cycle, the highest quality organic green aniseed from the village of Hineh on Mount Hermon is added, infusing the spirit with its fragrant essential oils.
\nTwo-Year Clay Maturation: Unique to Massaya is the extended aging process. The arak is rested for two years in traditional clay jars (amphorae). This porous environment allows the “fire” of the 53% alcohol to mellow, resulting in a crystalline spirit with a rounded, velvety mouthfeel.
\nPurity: Massaya is produced without any additives or extra sugar, relying entirely on the quality of its grapes and anise for its natural sweetness.
\nThe Perfect Serving
\nWith its 53% ABV, Arak Massaya is the quintessential partner for a Lebanese Mezze. To experience its full complexity, mix 1 part arak with 2 parts fresh water; watch as it transforms into a beautiful, milky-white louche. Always add the ice after the water to maintain the integrity of the anise oils. Its clean, licorice-toned finish serves as a superb palate cleanser between dishes. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
