Arak El Karya: Traditional & Authentic Lebanese Anise‑Spirited Drink
Arak El Karya is a distinguished Lebanese spirit deeply rooted in the rich tradition of arak‑making. Crafted from fine grape‑based alcohol infused with natural anise seeds, this expression embodies the smooth, licorice‑driven character of Lebanon’s national aniseed drink.
On the nose, Arak El Karya presents fragrant aromas of fresh licorice, herbs, and subtle floral undertones, reflecting its anise‑seed heritage. On the palate, it is smooth and warm, with a light sweetness, distinctive anise‑licorice flavor and a lingering finish. When diluted with cold water and ice, it develops the classic milky‑white louche effect, enhancing its aromatic depth.
This spirit pairs beautifully with Lebanese mezze, grilled fish, fresh seafood, or hearty Middle Eastern cuisine—meals that complement its herbal richness and traditional character.
Whether you’re enjoying Arak El Karya at a relaxed gathering in Dubai’s Jumeirah Beach Residence or hosting friends in Abu Dhabi’s Al Bateen Village, you can have it delivered directly to your door in the UAE with ease.
