Potentially Cheaper Rakia

For rakia makers ikn Bulgaria an interesting news flash.....

Locally home-made brandy called rakia would be two lev (one euro) a litre cheaper if the EU allowed the country to present “Bulgarian rakia” as a national brand, as Sofia would pay 50 per cent less in tax, leading to a drop in price.

A Recent Video On Making Rakia

This is a video that was recently shot in Bulgaria. It is not that informative but just a little camcord fun from some American tourists. However it does show a typical rakia house and the sytems they use to distill.
