Efe Grape 750mL

Efe Fresh Grapes Raki 750mL is a premium Turkish anise spirit crafted exclusively from fresh Sultana grapes, offering a cleaner, fruit-forward flavor profile compared to standard raki. Made using a meticulous distillation process in traditional copper pot stills, this raki is a true expression of Anatolian craftsmanship and heritage.

What sets Efe Fresh Grapes apart is its 100% fresh grape base, as opposed to dried or reconstituted fruit, resulting in a softer mouthfeel, brighter flavor, and a slightly aromatic lift on the nose. Infused with high-quality aniseed, this raki exhibits the classic louche effect when diluted with water, revealing its purity and natural origins.

Whether sipped slowly or paired with a full meze table, this is a refreshingly smooth, yet distinctly Turkish raki for connoisseurs and newcomers alike.
