Palm wine is the sweet tasty sap gotten from wounded palm trees. Anyone who has ever visited Abba-omega in Ebonyi State must have come across palm wine.

Palm wine is good for our health, if only we drink pure and fresh ones, this is because preservatives and sweeteners added "palmy" as it is fondly called is not good for our health. When palm wine is tapped, it is fresh and sweet but in 24 hours, it can become sharp and sour, and contain more alcohol than some of our alcoholic drinks. This is because the palm wine undergoes fermentation.

Palm wine has benefits when consumed fresh or fermented, but the most benefits are gotten when it is consumed fresh. In Cameroon and Nigeria, the process of tapping palm wine from palm trees is called palm wine tapping. A palm wine tapper climbs the palm tree with a rope that is locally designed for that purpose.

He also climbs the palm tree with a cutlass, a knife and a gallon or calabash. When the tapper climbs the tree to the top, he will cut some palm branches to expose the tissue and use the knife to create a hole in the tree. A hollow bamboo or empty pipe is used to direct the sap into a gallon which is tied around the tree.

Another way to tap wine from palm is by cutting down the palm trees as seen in Abba-omega (Abaomege) in Onicha L.G.A, Ebonyi State
