  • Feni is a rare liquor made from cashew fruit, and it's produced only in Goa, India. While some brands are pushing to take feni to the mainstream, this family has survived by hand making small batches and selling locally.
    The Gaonkar family only sells the liquor locally and does not have a website.

    This has a GI index. Pure feni is found in local bars. The first distillation is Urrak which has a more fruity palette, and is a seasonal drink having a short shelf life. Typically enjoyed during summer. Feni gets better in time. Can be consumed at any time of the year. Proud to be a Goan!!

      @reubinthomas Před rokem

      ​@@namedrop721 Urrak is usually stored or bought in plastic bottles because it's not commercially produced like Fenny. You can keep it in glass bottle and refrigerate for a slightly longer shelf life.
      I think the shorter shelf life is because it's very fruity. I prefer Urrak to Feny.

    I lived in Goa for 4 years. Hated feni at first, it's a very acquired taste, but now I love it especially served with Limca, half a green chilli and a little pudina (mint). Still visit 3-4 times a year and always bring back a local-made feni, usually sold in a repurposed Bisleri water bottle. You know it's the good stuff.

Fermentation is one of the worlds oldest food preparation and preservation techniques. Of course things can still go wrong and I'm sure bad batches happen but there are easily identifiable from the hundreds if not thousands of batches they make with their hundreds of years of experience that has been passed down. Plus with any distillation there are there are toxins and unpleasant compounds that come over at the first stages but thats why the heads are thrown out and normally the hearts and tails are collected.

Moat of the Cashew apples comes from neighbouring states like karnataka and Maharashtra. We used to drink Cashew urak and feni the day you are born and the day you die. For the weddings in Goa it was a must and for every feasts and festivals in Goa.

      It would've been done with more cleanliness in Italy as well
      Edit: A lot of people are getting caught up on "clean vs. unclean". Whether it's Italian or Indian liquor, it is clean after distillation. However, the cost of production (cleanliness, time, availability, can all be a factor) before-hand will add to the cost. When there is more care in a product before-hand, there is an additional cost. Think of free-range chicken or A5 Wagyu beef. The care before the product reaches it's final form adds to the cost. Lastly, a lot of Italian wines have been aged for many years which adds to the cost. This Indian wine is not aged nearly as long as artisan Italian wines.

    Anyone who's feeling icky about the stomping process should know that cashew fruit/nut has corrosive oils in them which are used for waterproofing boats etc., and thus using bare feet to stomp out the juice is not an option and machines get corroded easily which is not feasible for these small handcrafting families(maintenance cost will get higher than revenue). The alcohol is distilled anyways so it's clean.

      nobody is taking fruit waste from a farm to a landfill. that stuff is composted on site or just spread out back under the trees where it would naturally fall and rot. sending it to a landfill would cost money and deprive the field of more nutrients unnecessarily.
      of course making spirit from it instead can be profitable. I hear cocoa fruit pulp is also sometimes used to make alcohol, though I'm not sure if it gets distilled. if such fruit waste can be made into enjoyable spirits rather than lower potency wines, that makes it more marketable due to its long shelf-life.

    I see a lot of people don't know what distilling means, and therefore think that the end product is unclean.
    Distilling is where a substance is boiled in a pot, the condensation (steam that would normally go into the air, but is instead caught at the top of the pot) will trickle down through a pipe which leads to a container, this process seperates the gnarly stuff (dirt, bugs and bacteria to name a few) from the liquid. They do this process a few times to make sure the end product is as clean as possible.

    I love that folks have found their niche product. Id love to try it one day but living thousands of kilometers away I'm probably out of luck. I think the only thing I would question is their practice of taking the first distillate and adding it back to the still. In every other distillation process I've seen the first (and last) distillates are usually where you get most of the unwanted gunk, water and any unwanted alcohols that you don't want in your drink. That said, most of the processes I'm familiar with involve corn or grains, so using fruit its possible this isnt an issue (similar to making wine making)

This is way of life and it scales even worse than this, ie, most of Africa. If you try and force it to be different it will simply displace the way of life. World is balance and thats just life so cope. Live your own life and don't waste your time worrying about things that are impossible to change.
