Distilling & Tasting Notes

Arak XO is proudly triple distilled in handmade copper alembic stills with Pure Jezzine Spring Water from Lebanese indigenous white grapes only, using the finest aniseed in the world and aged in traditional clay jars for a period of six years. The renowned Pure Jezzine Spring Water when used in the distill gives the Arak a highly mineral taste on the palate. The Lebanese indigenous white grapes give a luscious, fruity taste which when coupled with the best aniseed gives a sweet complex note to Arak.

Our aniseed is brought in from the Syrian village of Heeneh, famed for producing the best aniseed in the world. We harvest our grapes at the optimal level of maturity, ensuring lower alcohol content, thus paying the penalty of producing lower yields of Eau de Vie, but ensuring the ideal smoothness. When mixed with water color changes to snow white and on the nose displaying a bouquet of licorice and dry aniseed aromas. In the mouth it displays a mixture of raisins, aniseed, licorice with sweet dryness in the aft palate.

Food Pairing: As an aperitif and with Lebanese Mezza, Spanish seafood tapas, raw meat, raw fish, barbecued
meat or chicken, green salads and an assortment of pickles.

The Three Brothers bathtub Lebanese Gin is a rediscovery of a lost style in gin production. Lebanese Juniper berries are macerated then infused along with 21 botanicals in a premium neutral grain spirit. Each of the botanicals has been carefully picked to bring the Lebanese aroma to life with every sip. When sipped,the palate explores intense notes of juniper, lavender, rose, carob, grapefruits and a spicy touch of cinnamon. This gin feels soft and silky with a zest of citrus and warm spicy finish. Can also be consumed neat, like a fine cognac or decent whisky. 2 Awards in 1 Year! GOLD world gin award 2022 SILVER Bartenders spirits awards 2022.

Winemaking: The grapes are manually harvested, totally stemmed and transferred to tank in order to achieve the alcoholic fermentation. The Cinsault is shortly vatted to keep the freshness, the Syrah and Mourvedre are kept for a longer time to extract the aroma and spices, and the Cabernet-Sauvignon undergoes long skin contact to express length and elegance. The free flowing and press wine achieve the malolactic fermentation in different vats.

Maturing: The grape varietals are matured separately in vats for 14 to 18 months before being blended, fined and bottled. Taste: Its bright intense ruby red colour, with an exotic fruity aroma along with spicy and licorice notes make it a wine to remember. The mellow and supple tannins produce a persisting length on the Palate Ageing It can be drunk upon purchase or kept for 2 to 3 years in a good cellar.

Serving: Its easy flowing taste suits daily consumption and goes along very well with leg of lamb and stew
