Fakra Arak is a premium Lebanese anise spirit from a distillery established in the early 18th century in Kfardebian — distilled in traditional pot stills and matured in clay jars for a smooth, licorice-like character.
With deep historical roots, Fakra delivers a soft, absinthe-adjacent anise profile that is gentler on the finish. It turns milky-white when mixed with water and ice — the customary serve — and pairs traditionally wit ezze such as small fish, olives, and feta.
