Feni
Feni is a spiritous liquor type originating in Goa, India. The name "feni" is derived from the Sanskrit word phena, meaning "froth" or "foam", referring to the foamy, bubbling appearance observed during distillation. The two most popular types of feni are cashew feni and coconut feni. Depending on the ingredients; however, other varieties and newer blends are also sold by distilleries. The small-batch distillation of feni has a fundamental effect on its final character, which still retains some of the delicate aromatics, congeners, and flavour elements of the juice from which it is produced.
