this is Hèm.
Vietnam's first sake cocktail bar, in a candlelit heritage house.
Candlelit,
romantic quietly
cool
Cocktails built on rice
- ginger
- tea leaves
- bitter melon
- lotus seed
- rice itself
Hèm is set inside a historic Hội An house that keeps its original character intact, from layers of paint to weathered walls and vintage details. Behind the bar, Vietnamese-made saké and rice spirits meet thoughtful cocktail craft.
What goes into the glass comes from Vietnam's kitchens and markets, drawn by hand for the bar, with a few select Japanese ingredients.
rice, twice over
Hèm was built around a simple belief: Vietnamese rice can become something world-class.
Everything follows from that. Vietnamese-made saké and rice spirits sit at the centre of the list, not the side of it, and every cocktail is built to let them lead.
