About The Book

For aspiring winemakers and wine enthusiasts, "Beyond Grapes: How to Make Wine Out of Anything But Grapes" unveils the art of creating exceptional wines from a myriad of fruits and ingredients beyond the traditional vine

If you think that all fine wines start on a grapevine, you are in for a delightful, eye-opening, tantalizing surprise. What you will discover in this book are delicious, mouth-watering recipes, developed over the author's extensive career, for making wines and liqueurs from fruits, vegetables, and medicinal herbs.

Beyond Grapes: How to Make Wine Out of Anything but Grapes is not your ordinary "how to make wine" book. It was written by Yacov Morad, founder and chief winemaker at the world-famous Morad Winery in Israel. In this book, Mr. Morad puts his wealth of winemaking experience to use, to teach you how to make simple, easy-to-learn wines and liqueurs from everything BUT grapes in the comfort of your own home. Each recipe follows a similar formula, which, once mastered, will give you the blueprint you need to design your own wine or liqueur, regardless of what fruit, vegetable, or plant you want to use as its base. Learn how to make wine from raspberries, pears, coconut, dates, onions, papaya, apricots, pomegranates, carrots, potatoes, mint, onion, dill, and even parsley (among other things), as well as how to make liqueurs from pineapple, honey, lychee, mango, chocolate, and chamomile.

Beyond Grapes: How to Make Wine Out of Anything but Grapes is the must-have book for any enthusiastic oenophile who dares to explore a new world of wine, to expose themselves to new and exciting flavors, and who wants to master the skills needed to produce experimental beverages out of an array of fruits, vegetables, and medicinal herbs. It is the perfect gift for any wine lover.

About The Author

Yacov Morad is a winemaker, author, and founder of Morad Winery in Israel. At the tender age of 10, he watched his father make wine on a small plot of land just outside their home, and by the age of 12, he was making wine all by himself. After a lifetime of experience, Yacov decided (along with the love of his life-his wife Ester) to convert his lifelong hobby into a full-time profession, so in 1999, Morad Winery opened its doors to rave reviews and the international press-all of whom were fascinated by the fact that a small winery in Israel can make wine out of parsley, sweet potatoes, and sage. The winery became a household name; Yacov appeared on a great many popular TV shows and news broadcasts and hosted hundreds of thousands of visitors from all around the world in his boutique winery's visitors' center. Morad Winery was the first commercial winery in Israel to make wine out of almost anything BUT grapes. Now, more than 20 years later, Mr. Morad and his wife are retired. Yacov now spends most of his time teaching students the secrets to making mouth-watering wines and liqueurs out of anything but grapes, in the comfort of their own homes.
