Cloud Nine White Wine

Karam Cloud Nine White Wine

Why Cloud Nine?

like to reflect sitting in my garden in Jezzine, glass of wine in hand. I keep having the same flashbacks to defining moments during my early years as a pilot. Most of my fond memories took place in my favorite bar Cloud Nine, located in the heart of Beirut. Being there at that time gave me a lot of pleasure and after blending my dry white wine, drinking it gave me similar pleasure. It was then that I decided to name it “Cloud Nine”. As a pilot, the clouds were my second home and my lucky number is nine. Everything fit! I hope this fresh, crisp, fruity and dry white wine will give you equally pleasurable moments. Have a sip, close your eyes and enjoy it! – Captain Habib Karam

Arak Brun Reserve Special 5 years from the Domaine des Tourelles winery is an aniseed, distilled and colorless alcoholic beverage produced in Lebanon. It is obtained from a 3-stage distillation, before aging in bar jars for 5 years.

Said Touma came from a family with a long history in the alcohol business and founded Clos St. Thomas in 1997. The winery was named after the chapel of St. Thomas, found in the heart of the vineyards.

Arak Touma is distilled four times using a variety of grapes and quality aniseed.

The arak of Chateau Ksara is a truly authentic expression of Lebanon's traditional, anise-flavored spirit.

It is produced in a specially-designed alembic still using an innovative technique to assure that only the heart of the distillate, the real "pure flower", is used. Finally, following ancestral norms, Ksarak is matured for two years in clay jars from Beit Chebab before it is at last ready for consumption.

Always Down! Always Grounded! This is a wine whose whiteness doesn’t promise virtue, but promises a clear invitation to fuck shit up! Not just a side dish for your meal, this is a traveling companion along the streets!

This is a wine for the rooftop parties where the people have wings!

This is a wine for people who enjoy themselves! Drink White and Forget the Night .
