Thailand is home to a large number of major spirits groups, including ThaiBev, Pernod Ricard and Diageo, proving the importance of the Thai market in the world of spirits.

In Thailand, "rum" is made from sugar and rice residues. It is widely consumed in this country, but locals tend to confuse it with whisky. That's why the Thai government, and more specifically the Ministry of Industrial Standards, is working on the establishment of "specifications" to clearly define the types of alcoholic beverages in the country.

The main Thai rum brands are Lamai, Mékong (now Thailand's leading spirits brand), the luxurious Phraya, SangSom, as well as two minor brands, Chalong Bay and Issan, which produce high-quality pure cane juice rum. Read less
