Mekhong Whisky

Mekhong Whisky stands as Thailand's iconic spirit, though it is actually a rum-based blend featuring herbal notes from local botanicals like lemongrass and kaffir lime. Data shows it contains 35% ABV, making it smoother than the typical rival whisky at 40% ABV, while its price averages 250 THB per bottle — 20% cheaper than Sang Som Rum at 300 THB. Its herbal complexity outperforms Sang Som Rum in versatility, pairing well with soda or neat, and its production dates back to 1941, reaffirming its legacy as a category benchmark for Thai spirits.
