Too much Raki?????

Dozens of people have been affected by drinking the illegally distilled brew, with at least 30 still hospitalised. Many of those still being treated are suffering from damaged vision.
Turkish authorities have confiscated more than 6,000 bottles of the raki, which was produced in an Istanbul car wash. The owner of the facility was one of those who died after drinking his own product.
The dangerous batch of the aniseed liquor contains up to 97 percent methyl alcohol, compared to the 0.15 percent found in legally distilled raki.

Buy your raki from Migros or Gima or a big supermarket.There is no way that rakis in that kind of big hypermarkets can be imitation.
