The Story

The Story of Sweet Lime & Cedar

The story of Sweet Lime & Cedar begins in Siam, a land with a rich culinary heritage where the creative arts from cooking and flower arranging to the blending of perfumes, were proudly passed from generation to generation. Perfection was important, everyday ingredients that were in fresh abundance such as flowers, leaves, herbs and fruit would be carefully turned into estimably beautiful creations. The art of perfuming was integral to this culture, essential oils blended from the produce of this delightful natural larder were made into colognes and used to scent clothes. Gradually, these sublime blends were also used to fragrance food with extensive, exotic menus meticulously designed to surprise and enchant.

These artisanal teachings form the basis of Thai cooking today and are the key influence in Sweet Lime & Cedar.
