Bahalina is tuba, coconut sap fermented with chopped mangrove bark (barok or tungog), that has been racked off its sediment week by week and then aged for a year or more. The bark turns the sap red and astringent, and with time the wine grows stronger, from about 8 % alcohol fresh to about 10–14 % once aged with bark.
No fixed amounts recordedNo fixed amounts. Gatherers in Leyte judge the amount of bark themselves, and the buyer (alpor) collects sap from many gatherers into a bigger container to age it.

At a glance
Bahalina is tuba, coconut sap fermented with chopped mangrove bark (barok or tungog), that has been racked off its sediment week by week and then aged for a year or more. The bark turns the sap red and astringent, and with time the wine grows stronger, from about 8 % alcohol fresh to about 10–14 % once aged with bark. Made in 5 steps over 12 months. The longest step, age into bahal and bahalina, takes at least 12 months (Agaton S.I.G. 2022). Yeasts, which outnumbered bacteria in fresh tuba does most of the fermenting.
Plain palm wine is drunk within a day or two and soon sours. Bahalina adds tannin-rich mangrove bark, is racked clear and is aged in full containers for a year or more, so it grows stronger with age.
Fresh tubaDrunk soon after gathering, sweet and about 8 % alcohol on average (5.77–9.26 %).
BahalTuba aged about six months.
Lambanog toddyCoconut sap fermented without bark, pearly white, 4.25–6.6 % alcohol and pH 3.6–4, then distilled into lambanog.
Safety
Insects such as lizards and cockroaches can contaminate the sap if the container on the spathe is not tied on securely. In ageing, direct sunlight or a container that is not filled full can turn the tuba to vinegar.
Tuba gathering is a daily trade in Leyte. Gatherers (mananggiti) tie on containers in the morning and sell the sap in the afternoon. Agaton's informants expect new generations of gatherers to keep the trade going. In the past buyers aged tuba in glass demijohns (dama juana); many now use plastic jugs, which break less in transport.
