El Massaya Arak is a Lebanese arak made by the Ghosn brothers' Massaya estate at Tanaïl in the Beqaa Valley. It is bottled at 50% in a 75cl bottle. The base is wine from indigenous Obeidi grapes, triple-distilled in Moorish-lid copper pot stills. Green aniseed from Hiné is macerated in the spirit before the third distillation, and the arak then rests for about two years in clay amphorae. No sugar is added and it is not chill filtered. It is medium-bodied and dry, with green fennel and anise, spearmint and pungent black liquorice, and a waxy mouthfeel.
