'Tuba' was, is, and always will be the people's drink - homegrown, unpretentious, readily accessible, and as far as general knowledge is concerned, devoid of any standards of quality or drinking etiquette. But of course, aside from the supreme ability of being able to drink quantities of it without toppling over in drunken stupor, there are standards of flavor as any connoisseur will tell you. 'Tuba' is a fermented coconut drink. In the country, 'tuba' gatherers would usually climb the coconut tree in the morning to gather the juice. Fresh from the tree, it is a refreshing morning drink but by mid-afternoon or so, it gets fermented and it becomes the people's native drink for informal afternoon gatherings in rural areas.
A Philippine import.
