Panaji, Mar 27: Goa Tourism will organise 'The Spirit of Goa Festival 2018' from April 6 to 8
in the city.
According to a statement here, the three day event will
revolve around Goa's much loved coconut and cashew in a variety of products,
cuisine, beverages, handicrafts showcasing the traditional aspects and the
goodness associated with the produce.
The Spirit of Goa Festival 2018 would also have live demos on distilling of cashew and coconut juice into Goa's much relished heritage brew Feni. Besides authentic Goan food, coconut and cashew would also be the key ingredients in the cuisine and beverages prepared and served during the three-day festival.
