We went here just to buy Sombai. But we were taken by surprise as we had a wonderful experience in this place. The owner took us on a tour and explained the entire process around their Sombai. And then we had a marvelous tasting experience, not only by the quality of their drink but in the same measure by the warm and kind conversation with the amazing owner.

Literally the best rice wines ive ever had! Ive been traveling multiple times in Indochina and i could say that Sombai stands out the most! Everyone is so hospitable, staff explaining everything and the owner is so nice 🥹

DARA is good for details about anything at sombai. Great shop and good place. I’m so interesting with drinks in here thanks.

Heart was an awesome guide! Very interesting flavors and very cool to see how it’s made. I would definitely recommend trying this!

Lovely place and all of the drinks were amazing. Big thanks to Heart for talking us through them all and giving us tasters. Ended up buying 8 of the flavours and will be back for a big bottle of Mango Green Chilli tomorrow.

Definitely stop by here. We had an absolutely fantastic time doing the tasting. The owners were beyond friendly and gave us advise on places to go in Siem Reap. Highly recommend going here. They also have sell true Kampot pepper. Photo 1 in review by Daniel Shultz

I popped in here spontaneously with my partner on our final afternoon in Siem Reap. We were given a little tour of the facility, and tasted ~10 different flavours of rice wine. All rice wines are infused with sugar cane and a range of local aromatics, including lemon & lemongrass, banana & cinnamon, pineapple & coconut, and tamarind & galangal. The wines make for a very mellow evening drink, with a flavour profile totally unlike any 'rice wine' I have had in other parts of Asia. Apparently they are also stress/pain-relieving, and don't give you a hangover, although I have yet to test that claim....The bottles are beautifully decorated with hand-painted designs, mostly Angkor-inspired (e.g. Bayon faces, Angkor Wat's towers, and twirling apsaras). They look great on the mantelpiece. We came away with about five! Heart was a wonderful guide - we had a lovely conversation about the background to this style of infused rice wine, and about life in and around Siem Reap. We couldn't have asked for a better farewell!

If you like rice wine, you NEED to try this place. We found it by having some at a local restaurant and I knew I needed to find some to take home. We happened to meet the owner and he was amazing too.

I encountered this ship while on a free hotel excursion and if not for the hotel I would not have found it. It's a small building that you may just walk or drive past without ever knowing it was there. But when you go inside the small shop and see all the hand painted bottles filled with Rice wine that has been infused with 12 different flavours you sit down and relax. But first take a trip up the almost vertical stairs to see the infusing bottles and watch the staff hand paint the bottles. Some of the paintings are seriously good

Joelle was an amazing host. My boyfriend and I felt like we were visiting a friend’s home and getting an amazing rice wine tasting experience at the same time. The flavour combos of the wines were so unique and unexpected, it was so fun to taste each one and find our favourite. Even though the tasting is free Joelle was so chill and genuine that we never felt pressured into buying anything but that makes you want to support this local business even more! Love what Joelle and her team are doing with local Cambodian rice wines and flavours. Our favourite was the Umami rice wine and jam - highly recommend experiencing this for yourself on your visit to Siem Reap. She also had some awesome restaurant and bar recommendations that we loved! Thank you Joelle and team!

The most incredible afternoon and such a lovely experience! We were shown round a beautiful little building and shown the infusion process before doing a free rice wine and alcoholic jam tasting! The flavours were INCREDIBLE and so unique and the lady who took us through the tasting could not have been more lovely or more informative. The bottles are all hand painted locally and make beautifully individual souvenirs whilst the jams are just to die for! We loved that regional flavours such as pepper were used as well as some tropical/ unique ones such as ginseng and umami! I ended up going for banana and cinnamon as my top flavour which even surprised myself! Could not recommend this enough if you’re looking for something a little different to do whilst in Siem Reap :) (and definitely buy a bottle or two, trust me you’re going to want to!)

Wow! Incredible place!!! If you are in siem reap you should visit this place. Totally recommended!!!

Unique experience of the tastes of Cambodia. A great set up very professional but brilliant fun. The alchemist of the liqueurs and jams and her team, ensure you have an amazing time with humour and good company, even a bit of dancing. The tasting session is followed by you making and drinking three very delicious cocktails. Can’t recommend this enough, it’s a must - we loved it.

Absolutely incredible experience!!! Had an amazing time with the lovely staff and others who were in our class. The tastings and cocktails were delicious, the making the cocktails was such a fun time!

A truly amazing experience that I cannot recommend highly enough. My partner and I have been traveling through South East Asia for about 2 months and can easily say that we have had one of the best nights of our trip here. The cocktails are great but what really sets it apart are the manger and instructor running the night. Both are such amazing people and made us feel not as paying customers but as friends that you had met up for a few cocktails. It's hard to understate how much we enjoyed the evening and if we could rate it higher we would. The next time we are in siem reap or cambodia we will be making a trip back for another fantastic night!
