DID YOU KNOW?

Vietnam is the world's second-largest coffee producer, producing over half of the global robusta coffee supply. Sadly, Vietnamese coffee is often wrongly labeled as low-quality or inferior. Many overlook its many varieties and depth of flavours, merely associating it with sweet condensed milk iced coffee.
Those who've tasted the bold, smooth flavours in Vietnam would dispute this stereotype. We're on a mission to unveil the true essence of Vietnamese coffee beans and rightly position them on our Aotearoa coffee map. Join us in celebrating this diverse journey, reshaping stories, and embracing a new coffee adventure.
