What it is
The Casamance pour: Senegal's palm wine — tapped from oil and ronier palms in the Diola groves of Casamance (the country's green south), drunk fresh at ceremonies and village gatherings in a Muslim-majority nation where the south's traditions keep the calabashes full. Origins: palm wine in Casamance is Diola heritage, central to funerals, wrestling seasons and rice-harvest feasts. Made from: palm sap, wild fermentation. How it's made: 1) Tap the palm crowns. 2) Collect in gourds and bottles. 3) Drink the same day, sweet turning sharp. Served: at Casamance ceremonies and Ziguinchor gatherings, with yassa feasts aside. Flavor: coconut-sweet fizz. Strength: 1-5%. Culture: palm wine is Casamance's signature hospitality — the grove is a cathedral and a cellar. See also: the Senegal cuisines collection (thieboudienne days).
