Tuak is a rice wine and is a specialty drink of longhouses. Visit a longhouse and the host will welcome you with a glass of tuak. The sweet fragrance of the longhouse tuak is highly deceiving as the drink is a potent alcoholic drink, and for those not used to alcohol, a small glass is enough to send you on a spin.
The beverage is a popular drink among the Dayaks during the Gawai festivals, weddings, hosting of guests and other special occasions.
