Askalon Arak Extra Fine Special is a refined, traditionally crafted Middle Eastern anise spirit, produced using time-honored distillation methods and high-quality natural ingredients. Named after the ancient city of Askalon, this premium arak reflects centuries of Levantine distilling heritage, offering exceptional purity, balance, and aromatic intensity.
Distilled from a neutral grape spirit and infused with natural anise, Askalon Arak undergoes multiple distillations to achieve a clean, elegant profile. The “Extra Fine Special” designation highlights its superior smoothness and aromatic clarity, making it an excellent introduction to arak as well as a standout choice for seasoned enthusiasts.
When mixed with water, Askalon Arak turns beautifully opalescent—an iconic hallmark of authentic anise spirits—delivering a refreshing, expressive, and food-friendly drinking experience.
