Founded in 2018 in Hà Nội, Sông Cái distillery is Việt Nam’s first gin distillery. The inaugural release, Sông Cái Việt Nam dry gin, is the first gin ever distilled in Việt Nam — using 16 wild hand-foraged botanicals, fruits, flowers, and wood unique to Việt Nam’s highlands. Their gin is handcrafted in small batches in a direct fired copper still, resulting in a bold, complex, and particularly rounded flavor. the botanicals used are rare — and the distillery's work is environmentally, socially, and culturally sustainable and enriching. The Vietnamese understanding of nature deals not only with water, land, and sky — but also culture and spirituality. Rooted in this all-encompassing philosophy, Sông Cái distillery produces terroir-driven spirits that capture the flavors and provenance of Việt Nam’s vast, biodiverse landscape of highlands and deltas.
