Yeni Rakı Âlâ is a rakı produced under the Yeni Rakı brand, created for consumers who appreciate a richer and more complex flavor profile. It is made from carefully selected sun-dried grapes, which provide greater concentration of natural aromas and sugars before distillation. The grape spirit is triple-distilled with aniseed and then matured in carefully selected oak casks, resulting in a smoother and more rounded character. Compared with the classic Yeni Rakı expression, it offers more pronounced notes of anise, dried fruit, and subtle oak, accompanied by a long, refined finish. Bottled at 47% ABV, it delivers a fuller body and a more intense aromatic profile. Introduced in 2011, Yeni Rakı Âlâ represents one of the brand's most distinctive expressions, offering a contemporary interpretation of traditional Turkish rakı.
