The Sacred Art of Hydro-Distilling Cambodian Agarwood

Agarwood, often revered as Liquid Gold, is born from a mystical natural alchemy. When ancient Aquilaria trees in Koh Kong are naturally infected by Phialophora parasitica, they produce a rich, dark aromatic resin to heal themselves.

In our artisanal distillation atelier, this aged wood is soaked in spring water and slowly hydro-distilled over gentle copper stills for weeks. The resulting nectar is a dark, complex oud that evolves gracefully over 24 hours.
