**What's New and Noteworthy in 2025**
Cambodia's gift landscape has matured in several key categories:
**Specialty Coffee (The Headline Story)**
OCC's highland Robusta program has gained international recognition, with growing attention from specialty coffee buyers in Japan, South Korea, and Western Europe. The brand's gift packaging has been refined for 2025, and they've introduced altitude-specific single-origin releases that allow side-by-side tasting.
**Artisan Ceramics**
Kampong Chhnang pottery has seen a revival, with several young Cambodian ceramic artists blending traditional shapes with contemporary glazing.
**Natural Skincare**
A cluster of Cambodia-based natural beauty brands has emerged using local ingredients — turmeric, galangal, coconut — in skincare formulations.
**Heritage Textiles**
Khmer silk weaving cooperatives have expanded their retail presence. Look for ikat and hol-weave pieces that come with maker identification cards.
