    HOW VODKA IS MADE IN GHANA | GHANAIAN TEACHES THE PROCESS OF MAKING LOCAL VODKA |LIFE IN AFRICA
    I have been in Ada in the greater Accra region of Ghana for a few days. I learnt how vodka is made in Ghana while there. Here, Wisdom teaches us the process of making local vodka. He has made vodka as a way of making a living for 15years. Its a skill that was passed from his father. Hope you enjoy a glimpse of life in Africa through this video.

      80USD how much CD, for Africa, sale 50UDS for local ….Do not cope hateful prices from white peoples cause the y put higher price cause don’t products and never go bad because white ppl have nothing! Asks Ghanaian in Europa. This price for Ghana,African as whole and overseas! We need Africans currency
      A person need education on how to price the products! Business man Ghanaian business team ignorance should come cover his products in reasonable price!
      Otherwise you are destroying him and discouraged him by nagging on price….
      Besides sugarcane in other African, countries, once’s they eat sorghum fruits, sugar cane itself as fresh plant! The rest the y throw…
      If Ghana develops but not Africa means nothing…, in order to have reasonable price in Africa with help of African currency !
      I hates Ghanaian because American currency is continental money….you alone you are lose… we needs Africans continental currency against Europaa
      50 is good
      Wisdom put 50 price is makes sense! The helpless is because Ghanaian cidis is useless…. Otherwise we 50 usd yaaa yea we needs African currency

    The children were treat to eyes. Pure bliss. But the distillation there need to improve, so as to enhance the yield. The initial run should be tested by flame. Only when it starts burning with blue flame, it may be collected for human consumption. Also a lot can be done to grow sugarcane. The drums of fermenting juice should not be in open sun light.

    I like Dark Rum. Vodka is dranked sometimes in frozen drinks but it is too strong for me.

    Hi Jasmine, I use to drink VODKA , but I no longer drink. Was that the only machine Wisdom had to press the juice out of the sugarcane ? What is the strength of the VODKA before dilution and after ?
