Vietnamese Drip Coffee (Ca phe phin)

Buon Ma Thuot is known as the coffee capital of Vietnam. The region’s volcanic soil produces some of the best Robusta beans in the country.

Vietnamese drip coffee is made using a "phin" filter, which allows the hot water to slowly extract the strong flavors from the ground beans. The result is a thick, bold brew that’s often served with sweetened condensed milk or over ice. Beyond taste, enjoying a phin coffee is a cultural experience that invites you to slow down and take in the local rhythm of life.
