Arak or araq ( Arabic: ﻋﺮﻕ) is a distilled Levantine spirit of the anise drinks family. It is translucent and unsweetened. Manufacturing begins with the vineyards, and quality grapevines are the key to making good arak. [28] The vines should be very mature and usually of a golden color. Instead of being irrigated, the vineyards are left to the care of the Mediterranean climate and make use of the natural rain and sun. The grapes, which are harvested in late September and early October, are crushed and put in barrels together with the juice (in Arabic el romeli) and left to ferment for three weeks. Occasionally the whole mix is stirred to release the CO 2.

Among a wide range of spirits made there, his sublime version of pastis ages for two years before it’s released as a “vintage.”In one four-week study, 72 women with hot flashes took either a placebo or a capsule containing 330 mg of anise seed three times daily.
