| In 2001, the Turkish government relinquished its monopoly on the production of spirits. Entrepreneur Ekrem Demirtas established the Elda company in September 2002, the first private company to produce this is a unique spirit. For 'Efe', grape juice is triple-distilled and then distilled again in a pot still with anise seeds. This sweet, slightly licorice flavoured premium spirit is traditionally served with chilled water and ice. |
