Natalija Naceva I don't want to burst your bubble, but most of the Balkan countries were once a part of Bulgaria and the people living there had at least some portion if not all bulgarian blood running in their veins and they still do. So there.
HA HA who taught you my friend history? when was that? maybe the country was named Serbia not BULGARIA. And all Balkan countries have their version of rakia. "The origins of rakia are unknown. The name is derived from the Arabic عرق [ʕaraq] meaning "condensation" (which is the final phase of distillation), through the Turkish rakı, leading some[who?] to believe that it has some Middle Eastern influence and was developed in the Balkans during the Ottoman Empire era. Currently, there is no defined origin of rakia but there are many who claim to be the origins of the drink, most vocally Bulgaria, Serbia and Turkey" from wikipedia. Hope it clears all bullshit about origins. Peace
You are what you feel.Balkans have many many ethink mixxes,noone is pure Bulgarian,or Serbian or Greek or Romanian.....A great role plays what is your religion,your history and what you feel that you are from... kisses from Greece.
OMG!!! This one is amazing! When I close my eyes it's like sitting at some place on Skadarlija street... Priceless! P.S. People please stop with history and politics, we are here to enjoy music and connect not argue and divide. Peace!
There are more types of Rakija. Made from plums, quince, mirabelle. It doesn`t make you feel like you are in Paradise. It contains alcohol, but with a good secret taste. But i can make you sure that it doesn`t drives you crazy like votka.
I love Serbs, Macedonians, Greeks, and all Balkan nations, because besides the hate we nurture all our lives, our blood's still strong, because we are so fucking ancient, few nations could ever think of bragging about their history. Life happened on our land back in the days people, share some love
We the people from the Balkans always argue about something when we are supposed to defend each other and be one nation ! So shut up enjoy the music and have fun! :))) peace !
Kako vidim ovdje u komentarima rakija ne povezuje ljude. :) Zar je bitno cija je rakija :)))) Vazno je da svako za sebe pravi i da se pije! Uzdravlje svima koji piju rakiju.
Rakia realy comes from Bulgaria, here we made much more than fiftieth sorts, and every family made it for them self rakia :) So i hope so to visit us and test our traditional drink, and enjoy whit the Bulgarian nature and people PS i'm sorry for my terrible english :D
Rakia is considered to be а national drink in a number of countries, including Albania, Bulgaria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia and Turkey. Doesn't matter and noone can really prove where it came from. I guess the guys who invented it were too drunk to mention LOL . The important thing is that we drink it and have fun after that.
stop arguing!!!!! From Croatia to Bulgaria, we all drink it!!!! My rakija is my alone!!! And whoever says it's bad is challenged to a drinking contest!!!!
Wikipedia says: It was believed that rakia was first created in the 16th century in the Balkans, the location unknown, but the recent discovery of wording on a shard of pottery (Аз пих ракиня на празника - I drank rakinja at the celebration (rakinja being the old word for rakia) indicates its presence in 14th century Bulgaria... But most important - the BALKANS! so lets hug each other and НАЗДРАВЕ :) :) :)
