Limited edition
Pearl of Asia
A gin for Phnom Penh's golden age, built on the golden apple that flowers only in August and September.
A tribute to the city Phnom Penh was between the 1920s and the 1970s, and to the artists who made it.
Seekers Pearl of Asia Gin
This modern gin balances juniper and coriander with the seasonal delicacy of golden apple, which imparts a bright, floral-fruity character. A subtle finish of green cardamom adds a hint of warm spice, creating a flavour profile that honours Cambodia's artistic heritage.
The 2025 edition, by Ponleu
The 2025 release was made with Tribe Art Gallery and the Cambodian artist Ponleu Prom, and launched on 1 May 2025 at the opening of Golden Goddess, an exhibition of work drawn from the temples of Angkor, held at Plantation Urban Resort and Spa and curated by Nat Di Maggio.
Ponleu was born in 1994 in Siem Reap province and had no formal training. He studied at evening classes at Colours of Cambodia. His label went on to win a Gold Medal in the Limited Editions category at the Asian Print Awards, 2025.
Why golden apple
The fruit ripens for two months of the year and nowhere near enough of it exists to make gin year round. That is the reason Pearl of Asia is a limited edition rather than a permanent bottling.
