Raise a Glass to Heritage: Stone Castle Raki

Few spirits carry with them both history and heart.

Stone Castle Raki is one such bottle — a bold, aromatic grape brandy rooted in the fertile valleys of Kosovo, crafted for those who value tradition as much as flavor.

A Taste of the Balkans in Every Sip

• From vineyard to copper stills — Stone Castle Raki is made from fragrant white grapes grown in the Stone Castle valley. The grapes are double-distilled in copper boilers, a classic technique that preserves and amplifies their character. 

• Rich aroma, bold finish — Expect a surprisingly intense bouquet followed by a strong, elegant flavor that stands out whether sipped neat or paired with food. 

• Perfect for toasts — or everyday moments — With 42% alcohol by volume, Stone Castle Raki sits right in that sweet spot: powerful enough to make an impression, but smooth enough to enjoy responsibly. 

Why Stone Castle Raki Belongs at Arthur Cantina

• It brings Balkan heritage to the shelves, appealing especially to customers with Kosovar, Albanian or Balkan roots — many of whom visit your store.

• At a retail price around $17.99, it hits a sweet spot: affordable yet premium enough for gifting, holiday meals, house parties or cultural celebrations.

• Perfect for toasts & traditions — Weddings, holidays, family dinners — Stone Castle Raki fits any event needing a spirited toast.
