    Dagon University Commemoration of 25th Anniversary Silver Jubilee Research Journal 2019, Vol.9, No.2 404 A Study on the Processing of Toddy Palm Wine Khin Si Win1 Abstract In this research work, toddy palm sap of Dar Pein Town, Hlegu Township, Yangon Region was used to produce the value-added product of toddy palm wine. Effective preparation technique was employed to obtain the high quality processed toddy palm wine. Toddy palm sap of soluble solids content 12 to 12.5 % Brix was mixed with 10 % sugar to get the soluble solids content of toddy palm sap was obtained 23.5 – 24 % Brix. High purified raw materials such as 0.2 % yeast, 0.1 % pectic enzyme and 0.01 % potassium sorbate were employed to produce the most attractive processed toddy palm wine. The physico-chemical characteristics of the processed toddy palm wine were analyzed by the determination of pH, acidity, total soluble solids (TSS), specific gravity, alcohol content and colour. It was found that the characteristics of these processed toddy palm wine were also comparable with the commercial wine (full moon wine) from other fruit juice. Key words: toddy palm sap, toddy palm wine, effective production techniques,high purity raw materials, physico-chemical characteristics Introduction Wine is one of the most popular beverages all over the world.

  • Bago – Kyaikhtyio - Thanlyin – Yangon (5 Days/ 4 Nights)
    YANGON - BAGO – KYAIKHTYIO - THANLYIN – YANGON (5 DAYS/ 4 NIGHTS) TOUR CODE: ASIANAMM03 TOUR TYPE: Classic, Family, Pilgrimage TOUR VALUE FOR CUSTOMERS: - Get to know: Culture, History, Local living of people in Yangon City, Bago, Kyaikhtiyo City and Thanlyin City. Enjoy Myanmar Cuisine. Firstly, Yangon (formerly known as Rangoon) is the largest city in Myanmar (formerly Burma). A mix of British colonial architecture, modern high-rises and gilded Buddhist pagodas define its skyline. Its famed Shwedagon Paya, a huge, shimmering pagoda complex, draws thousands of pilgrims annually. The city's other notable religious sites include the Botataung and Sule pagodas, both housing Buddhist relics. Secondly, Bago is one of the richest archaeological sites in Myanmar. Apparently Mons were the first to settle at this site. Two Mon brothers Thamala and Wimala from Thaton. first founded the city about 825 A.D. In 13th century A.D. The site. which was then on the Gulf of Martaban. had already been earmarked as the location of a great city by Gautama. the historic Buddha. Bago was made the capital of the Mon Kingdom and it came to be known as Hansavati (Hanthawaddy). It was also the seaport of ancient Mon kings. Then it became the Second Myanmar Empire founded by King Bayinnaung. Thirtly, explore Kyaikhtiyo - a small town in Mon State, Myanmar, famous for its Kyaikhtiyo Pagoda or Golden Rock – a favorite destination for travelers. Travelers from near and far come to visit this place, as they considered Kyaikhtiyo as a sacred place like other pagodas in Myanmar. Finally, Only 30 minutes' driver from Yangon across the Bago River, Thanlyin was a marjor port from the 14 th to the century, untill it was displaced by Yango in 1755, and was briefly controlled by the Portuguese adventures de Brito at the beginning of the 17 th century.
