The brand “RUANG KHAO” has been cherished and won the hearts of Thai people for more than two centuries. From the Chinese distillation wisdom to the establishment of the legendary Bangyikhan Distillery along the bank of the Chao Phraya River in the early Rattanakosin Period, the folk wisdom has been fused with spirits making wisdom from the West and evolved into a cultural heritage that continues to be celebrated and preserved from generation to generation.
According to ancient legend, the Narai God asked the demons to help to churn the Ocean of Milk at the centre of the universe. The Gods and demons gathered on the shores of the ocean and together they placed Mount Mandara, the tallest mountain in the world, in the ocean as a churning rod. Then they wrapped a snake around the mountain to stir the herbs used to produce the Amrit elixir.
RUANG KHAO means “ears of rice”. Thus it is associated with the souls of Thai people for generations as Thailand is very famous for rice agriculture. Thai people take pride and joy in RUANG KHAO’s distinctively crafter white spirits which have been part of their culture for hundreds of years.
