Yeni Rakı - Yeni Seri offers a smooth and distinct flavour profile, which is achieved by carefully processing fresh and dried grapes with the first harvest of aniseed. The freshness and quality of the season’s aniseed impart a unique smoothness to every sip, with the result being an extraordinary taste that embodies the essence of rakı. With an alcohol content of 45%, Yeni Rakı Yeni Seri reflects the 500-year-old tradition of rakı production, starting with the fermentation of unfermented grape juice and culminating in the creation of suma, the base alcohol used in rakı. This production process is what gives Yeni Rakı Yeni Seri its exceptional quality. Officially launched in 2009, this version of Yeni Rakı remains a symbol of craftsmanship and dedication to preserving rakı's deep-rooted cultural heritage. It pairs especially well with cold and herby mezzes.

Aniseed (Pimpinella Anisum), a key ingredient in rakı, is not only a fundamental botanical symbol of the Mediterranean but also plays an essential role in shaping the flavour profile of the drink. Known for its distinctive aroma, aniseed contributes a unique taste that distinguishes rakı from other spirits. The annual plant, which can grow between 1 and 1.5 meters tall, requires ample sunlight to thrive. Harvested between July and August, the seeds are carefully separated, dried, and prepared for use. The quality of the aniseed used in rakı production is crucial, as it directly influences the final flavour.

Rakı is a distinctive spirit with a production process that sets it apart from other alcoholic beverages. Produced in Turkey, rakı is made by redistilling suma, either alone or mixed with agricultural ethyl alcohol, along with aniseed grown locally. This process occurs in traditional copper alembics, with a filling volume of 5,000 liters or less. The method of distillation not only sets rakı apart but also ensures that it retains its unique taste, which has become synonymous with the cultural identity of Turkey. With its rich history and complex production, rakı continues to be a celebrated drink, particularly enjoyed with cold and herby mezzes.

Yeni Rakı - Yeni Seri offers a smooth and distinct flavour, derived from the careful selection of fresh and dried grapes combined with the first harvest of aniseed. Its refined taste comes from using the freshest aniseeds of the season, ensuring every sip delivers the unparalleled pleasure of rakı. With an alcohol content of 45%, Yeni Rakı Yeni Seri was officially launched in 2009 and stands as a testament to the 500-year-old rakı tradition. The rakı production process begins with the fermentation of unfermented grape juice with yeast, followed by distillation to produce ethanol, known as suma, which is used in rakı. This drink pairs perfectly with cold and herby mezzes, enhancing its delicate flavours.

Aniseed, the key ingredient in rakı, plays a crucial role in giving the spirit its distinctive taste. This annual Mediterranean plant, Pimpinella Anisum, is known for its strong cultural and gastronomic significance. It grows up to 1-1.5 meters and requires abundant sunlight, with its harvest season occurring in July and August. After harvesting, the seeds are separated, dried, and prepared for use in rakı production. The rakı-making process itself is unique, involving the redistillation of suma and sometimes the addition of ethyl alcohol, along with Turkish-grown aniseed. This method, carried out in traditional copper alembics, ensures rakı's one-of-a-kind flavor, setting it apart from other aniseed-flavoured spirits. Again, cold and herby mezzes are the ideal accompaniment to this traditional drink.
