The 10 Best Vietnamese Coffees

Perfect for newbies just breaking into the world of ca phe sua da, Len's Coffee Kit (about $23) has everything you need to get your caffeine fix, including a stainless steel Phin filter with a lifetime warranty, 14 ounces of sweetened condensed milk, and over a pound of gourmet java.

A product of one of the most recognizable Vietnamese brands on the market, Trung Nguyen Premium (appx. $10) is ground to the ideal coarseness. Lighter than a French roast, it combines arabica, robusta, excelsa, and catimor beans to achieve a supremely balanced blend.

An interesting combination of American, French, and Vietnamese culture, Cafe Du Monde (about $13) is infused with ground chicory, which imparts a smoky, earthy flavor. Its bold, strong taste lends itself well to sweet condensed milk, and it's delicious when poured over ice, too.

An excellent choice for the java lover who's always on the go, G7 3-in-1 Premium (about $19) offers one hundred servings of decadent instant joe that's dry roasted using a patented process. Each individual sachet is already imbued with cream and sugar, so all you'll need is hot water.

Whether you're using a drip machine, French press, percolator, or traditional Phin filter, Trung Nguyen Gourmet (about $8) will produce a rich, smooth result with low acidity, and will fill your kitchen or office with the fragrant aroma of various spices, fruits, and chocolate.

You won't need any fancy machines to prepare a mug of Vinacafe Instant (about $19), just some hot water and a few minutes to let it steep. Each batch is crafted from a blend of arabica and robusta beans that yields a full-bodied flavor with a hint of sweetness and a slight nuttiness.

Sourced straight from Vietnamese farmers and roasted in an FDA-approved facility in Southeast Asia, Chestbrew Moon Bear (about $17) is a potent dark roast with a bold taste that's packaged in tough bags with ultra-strong seals, so every bean stays fresh for as long as possible.

Although you'll miss out on the traditional slow brewing experience, Saigon Rocks (about $15) is a collection of 24 pods that work in all single-serve K-cup systems, including the Keurig 2.0. Hailing from a small batch roaster, every order is lovingly filled and hand packed in Texas.

Chocolatey and smooth, Dalat Peaberry (around $14) is one pound of ultra-caffeinated robusta that boasts a low acidity and velvety mouthfeel. Grown in the basaltic soil of the Vietnamese central highlands, each unsplit bean is sun-dried and roasted to medium-dark perfection.

Copper Cow Dark (about $9) comes to you from a women-owned company that sources beans from socially responsible, sustainable, organic farms located in Dalat. Potent, full-bodied, and offering hints of mocha, every cup you brew will give you the jolt you crave without the jitters.
