Bringing the Best of Spain to South East Asia
|
Solymer Asia, a company based in Singapore brings the culture of Spain to South East Asia. As Spanish food, wine and other epicurean products become better known in the region, Solymer Asia has become the most reliable and effective source of such products to the local communities.
|
| The traditional culture of Spain exemplifies the Epicurean Philosophy. Good food, friends and music are a part of everyday life. Food is often prepared very simply but with high quality ingredients. Wine is integral to meals as are family and friends.
Solymer brings the Spanish version of the Epicurean philosophy to Asia: wine, olives, olive oil, cured meats and cheeses. We bring not only the products but also bring the culture through dinners, events, classes, recipes. Our goal is to bring you the best value for money. Good wine, food, music, art and people. No worries.

| Epicurean Products
When one hears the word Epicurean these days one often thinks of pretentious and expensive products for the elite. This is actually opposite the philosophy that Epicurus (Greek Philosopher, 341-270 BC) espoused. Epicurus encouraged people to fill their lives with pleasurable things. He wanted us to live a life without pain; both physical and mental pain (e.g. worry and anxiety). This meant not striving to acquire things that were beyond your reach or so expensive that you couldn’t afford to have them as often as you wanted them. This meant eating food that was of good quality yet accessible while spending time with the people that made you happy.
