In news– Recently, Goa got a museum that is entirely dedicated to the locally brewed alcohol, Feni, which is Goa’s one of the most loved features among the tourists.

About the Museum-

  • The museum has been named as ‘All About Alcohol’.
  • Spread across 13,000 sq ft in the beach village of Candolim, the museum offers a potent brew of history and Goan culture.
  • Nandan Kudchadkar’s latest venture, a museum dedicated to the “art of drinking” and offers a fresh perspective on India’s unofficial ‘party capital’.
  • The sprawling five-room museum documents how feni, distilled from fermented cashew apples, has been produced, transported and consumed over centuries. 
  • Thousands of multi-coloured garrafões (large-bellied glass bottles), used to hold the spirit, line its walls. 
  • The museum also features its own cellar, which houses row upon row of cashew and coconut feni dating back to the 1950s.

More about Feni-

  • Feni is a traditional liquor distilled from the fermented juice of cashew apples.
  • The name “feni” is derived from the Sanskrit word phena which actually means froth. 
  • It is due to the fact that bubbles form a light froth when the liquor is shaken in a bottle or poured in a glass. 
  • Feni is a part of Goa’s food tradition from the last 400 years. 
  • It got the Geographical Indication (GI) certificate in 2009. 
  • In 2016, the Goan government initiated the process of declaring it as a heritage drink.
  • The two popular types of Feni Goa is known for are– Coconut Feni and Cashew Feni.
  •  In terms of production, Coconut Feni is older than Cashew Feni.
