Our Second Year Featuring This Exceedingly Rare Gem From Vietnam
Tasting Notes
This coffee opens with bright red fruit notes of red grape, cherry, and strawberry. Banana becomes prominent during the middle portion of the cup, along with darker, more jammy berry notes. The cup finishes with notes of marshmallow and cacao nibs.
About The Producer
We’re happy to be able to feature this coffee for a second harvest as it is both a delicious coffee and an indicator that Vietnamese specialty coffee production is at least stable and likely growing. This coffee is the product of the same 500 households that compose the Dung K’NO Commune that produced a coffee by the same name which we featured in July of 2024.
Vietnam’s journey to becoming the world’s second-largest coffee producer began in the 1850s with the introduction of Arabica. French investment later expanded coffee production in the Central Highlands, but war and political upheaval slowed its growth. A devastating frost in Brazil in 1975 created a global coffee shortage, leading East Germany to invest heavily in Vietnam’s coffee industry. Although East Germany dissolved before seeing the results, those investments helped lay the foundation for Vietnam’s rise as one of the world’s leading coffee producers.
