Description: |

Palm Wine / Toddy is an alcoholic beverage created from the sap
of various species of palm tree
The sap is extracted and
collected by a tapper. Typically the sap is collected from the
cut flower of the palm tree. A container is fastened to the
flower stump to collect the sap. The white liquid that initially
collects tends to be very sweet and non-alcoholic before it is
fermented. An alternative method is the falling of the entire
tree. Where this is practised, a fire is sometimes lit at the
cut end to facilitate the collection of sap.
Palm sap
begins fermenting immediately after collection, due to natural
yeasts in the air (often spurred by residual yeast left in the
collecting container). Within two hours, fermentation yields an
aromatic wine of up to 4% alcohol content, mildly intoxicating
and sweet. The wine may be allowed to ferment longer, up to a
day, to yield a stronger, more sour and acidic taste, which some
people prefer. Longer fermentation produces vinegar instead of
stronger wine.
Palm wine may be distilled to create a
stronger drink, which goes by different names depending on the
region |
