{"product_id":"arak-blanka-founders-blend","title":"Arak Blanka | Founder's Blend","description":"\u003cp\u003eArak Blanka begins with one family and three generations of it. More than fifty years ago Halim Bejjani took up the craft of arak making in Lebanon and passed it to his son Robert, who spent forty years refining blends and technique to become a Master Distiller. Robert's middle son Ramy then brought modern equipment to the family method without abandoning it. The Founder's Blend is the expression that carries that lineage, made by ETS. Distillery from Obeidi grapes and Heena aniseed, distilled and purified through authentic copper stills.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCrystal clear in the bottle, turning milk white the moment water hits it. The aniseed is clean and precise rather than heavy, with the Heena seed giving a sweeter and rounder note than the sharper anise found in industrial arak. Obeidi grape spirit sits underneath, giving body without harshness, and the finish is smooth and long with the liquorice warmth staying well after the glass is down.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100 cl bottle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade from Obeidi grapes, the indigenous Lebanese white variety\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlavoured with Heena aniseed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDistilled and purified in copper stills\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArtisanal production in small batches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eServing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTraditionally poured one part arak to two parts water, then ice added last so the ice never touches neat spirit.
