EFE
Efe Raki is the first privately produced Raki
in Turkey. Raki production had been in a government
monopoly from 1931 until June 2003, when a new
regulation came into force. With this change,
a company named ELDA built a factory from bare
ground, in 20,000 m2 of land, to produce Efe
Raki. The fully automated factory was built in
12 months with the latest technology and the
best equipment from Italy. The initial capacity
was set at 5,000,000 liters but expandable to
15,000,000 liters annually.
Efe Raki entered the Turkish domestic market
in September of 2004. It was exported to Germany
and Austria in the same month. Demirtas is appointed
as the Duty Free distributor for Efe Rakı.
Efe Raki brought together the experts to produce
the taste that defines Raki by an authentic recipe.
Selected top-quality grapes and anis seeds of
the Aegean coast gives Efe Raki its distinct
taste and unmistakable aroma every time. Triple-distilled
grape alcohol is redistilled in pot stills to
offer the quality that is appreciated by even
the most discriminating Raki drinkers.
