By Mishell Malabaguio. Photos by Walter Villa
There is an international market for wines made from fruits other than grapes

Cash outlay on equipment: P47,300
Production cost including packaging and labor: P4,345
Current price of fruit wines in the market: P400 to P600 per 800ml bottle
Profit: 100% to 150%

Don Roberto's Fruit Wine made out of mango stirred up the international wine industry and opened the door for more entrepreneurs to venture into tropical fruit wine making. Now you can find wines made out of coffee, duhat and bignay. The international market is the target of most wine makers in the Philippines.

STEP 1. Prepare the Tamarind Stock. Because the tamarind bears fruit only once a year, it is best to make batches of Tamarind Stock that is good for a whole year of wine production.

To make the stock, peel off the shell of the fruit. Mix each kilo of pulp with 5kg of rock salt. Pack and put in a cold dry storage.
