An intense, Flavored Brandy from Turkey crafted with raisins from Rasaki & Kalecik Karasi grapes flavored with first-harvest aniseed, that is brewed for extra 30 days before being bottled at 45.5%. Ustalarin Karisimi (Masters Blend) is meant to balances the aromas of Yeni Rakı, Yeni Seri & Yeni Rakı ÂLÂ, unfortunately, for me it makes the flavors more prominent! It has an aromatic birth with notes soft grape alcohol & herbs; while a complex life adds notes of anise, hints of vanilla, oak, black pepper & pine; that led to a long & bold death. December 2023
