This mob makes the Mekong Dry Gin, the only gin distillery in Cambodia? Heading over soon and could only find the Juniper Gin Bar which looks ok to visit. Anyone tried this number or been to this bar thanks for a heads up.
Gave up the beer after 50 yrs of it and gin works fine, plus easier to carry than a case of Fosters. I've refined my taste for gin, so far Gordons makes a great paint stripper and Beefeater is a cheap good old stalwart.

Seekers have been around a bit now but certainly a bottle I tried in Battambang in 2019 that they had had left as a trial at Bambu. I can confirm 5 of us agreed was one of the worst things we have ever tried it was like rice wine or just neat ethanol.
They were at the time selling them at about $30 a litre. considering you can get Bombay and Tanqueray for half that and they taste great. They may well have improved, I know they do flavoured ones with lime leaf and Kampot pepper etc, they used to do a tasting every week or so which some friends said was great and enjoyed the taste so maybe they did accidentally leave a bottle of ethanol. I'd be happy to hear if they have improved. https://www.seekersspirits.com/stop-by
Certainly at the price point they are at it would have to be good.
Juniper Gin bar is very good for sundowners well worth a visit.

Agree with this, there's a start up near me who is asking 81 AUD for his labeled metho. One of the worlds best gins (4 world gold awards) is 75 AUD...delivered.ryorm wrote: ↑Tue Apr 12, 2022 5:33 pmTypically, new startups come out with an average product and then price themselves out of the market

Thanks for the info GNT. My go to gins in a pinch are Beefeater and Tanqueray, no frills reliable London dry's at a great price. Friend in Kampot bought a Japanese Roku @ AUD 34, this drop has distilled some unusual local botanicals and just a great drop. Owned by Suntory, can't go wrong there.GNT wrote: ↑Tue Apr 12, 2022 8:36 pmSeekers have been around a bit now but certainly a bottle I tried in Battambang in 2019 that they had had left as a trial at Bambu.
