High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Arrack is a distilled alcoholic drink typically produced in South Asia and South East Asia, made from either the fermented sap of coconut flowers, sugarcane, grain (e.g. red rice) or fruit depending upon the country of origin. The clear distillate may be blended, aged in wooden barrels, or repeatedly distilled and filtered depending upon the taste and color objectives of the manufacturer. Arrack is not to be confused with Arak, an anise-flavored alcoholic beverage traditionally consumed in Eastern Mediterranean and North African countries.
