About Ch\u00e2teau Nakad<\/h2>\n

Ch\u00e2teau Nakad is one of Lebanon’s oldest family wine and arak estates, based in the village of Jdita in the Bekaa Valley and dating back to 1923. Across a century of production, the Nakad family has maintained a resolutely artisanal approach, becoming a quietly respected name among lovers of authentic Lebanese wine and spirits.<\/p>\n

Among its best-known products is Arak As-Samir, the estate’s traditional anise spirit, distilled from grapes in the classic Lebanese manner. Alongside its arak, Ch\u00e2teau Nakad produces a range of wines, and its long, uninterrupted history through some of the region’s most turbulent decades is itself part of the brand’s story.<\/p>\n
