The path to MAWSIM’s hidden space involves a slightly grody staircase, but you’ll forget all of that once you enter the bar. Its secret location in the heart of Phnom Penh is beautifully furnished, featuring cosy interiors with warm wood counters. Gins are the highlight here, crafted with Southeast Asian botanicals like cardamom, cashew, lemongrass and galangal. Their Spices & Herbs Gin has also drawn attention beyond Cambodia’s shores, snagging a Gold award in 2023’s edition of the World Gin Awards.
