Spirits | Cigars | Rare Oud | Real Estate
A fast-growing group of consumer brands and real asset investments, built from Cambodia.
MLKC Group invests in and operates premium spirits, cigars, rare natural luxury goods and real estate — pairing hands-on brand-building with a land and property base dating back to 1996.
One group, four disciplines.
MLKC Group applies the same operating approach to every business it holds: move directly, build the brand or the asset personally, and scale where the fundamentals justify it. JIANG is redefining Cambodia's spirits category. Pearl Asia serves collectors and private clients through one of the region's most credentialed cigar partnerships. Noble Oud has spent close to two decades supplying rare oud to the Middle East and China. And MLKC Properties, in operation since 1996, provides the real estate and land-banking foundation the rest of the group is built on. Four different markets, governed by one investment discipline.

Cambodia's fastest-growing tequila-based liquor.
JIANG is an agave spirit carried by jasmine, made for Phnom Penh's bar and lounge scene from the first pour, and it has grown into Cambodia's fastest-growing tequila-based liquor. The brand lives as much in the room as it does in the bottle: a custom mobile bar programme, original event concepts, and a sales team building distribution one venue at a time have carried it across the city's leading nightlife venues. JIANG is managed under Gatao & Co., Co Ltd., an operating company in which MLKC Group holds a direct investment, with the brand's full identity — wordmark, packaging and event design — developed end to end in-house.

Pearl Asia Cigar Co.
Cuban and Dominican cigars, chosen with care.
Pearl Asia imports and curates cigars for collectors, restaurants and private clients across Cambodia, with every relationship on the supplier and client side built directly and kept close. At the centre of that supply chain is a long-standing partnership with Ritmos Cigar Company, Cambodia's first Cuban–non-Cuban cigar factory, where Habanos-trained Cuban torcedores hand-roll what many consider Asia's finest cigars — a standard rarely found outside Cuba itself. The result is an extensive, carefully sourced catalogue spanning Cuban and Dominican houses, backed by fast, precise, client-ready quoting built for a relationship-driven trade.
Catalogue — Cuban & Dominican houses, 40+ labels | Factory partner — Ritmos Cigar Company, Cambodia
Noble Oud
Cambodian oud, supplied to the Middle East and China since 2008.
Noble Oud has been a family-owned business since 2008, sourcing and supplying some of the rarest oud in the world to the Middle East and China. Its sculptures are natural formations shaped within Aquilaria trees, uncovered by hand from Koh Kong, Cambodia, and prepared for two of the most discerning luxury markets anywhere. Each piece is kept whole and treated as a natural object first, a luxury good second — a distinction that has underpinned the relationships Noble Oud has built with its buyers over close to two decades.

MLKC Properties
Factories, warehouses and land, positioned ahead of demand.
MLKC Properties has been in private operation since 1996, and through three decades of direct investment it has assembled a substantial land bank alongside its industrial and commercial holdings. Factory and warehouse space is leased to manufacturing and logistics tenants across Cambodia, while land held in growth corridors is positioned for long-term appreciation rather than short-term turnover. It is the asset base underneath the rest of the group — physical, income-generating, and built over thirty years rather than thirty months.
