Vietnamese Coffee beans

Vietnamese Coffee beans – Premium Quality for Global Export

Origin

Vietnam is the world's second-largest coffee exporter (after Brazil) and the largest producer of Robusta coffee (accounting for about 40% of global Robusta production). Key growing regions include:

• Central Highlands (Đắk Lắk – Vietnam's coffee capital, Lâm Đồng, Gia Lai, Đắk Nông): Over 90% of total area and output.
• Northern region (Sơn La, Điện Biên): High-quality Arabica with distinctive flavor profiles.
• Central region (Quảng Trị, Quảng Nam): Some Arabica and Robusta cultivation.

Production Process

1. Harvesting ripe coffee cherries (November–March, depending on region).
2. Processing: Wet (washed) or dry (natural/sun-dried) methods:
   • Robusta: Primarily dry-processed.
   • Arabica: Mostly wet-processed to maintain clean flavor.
3. Drying beans to 10-12% moisture.
4. Hulling (removing parchment skin), grading by screen size and density.
5. Roasting (if exporting roasted beans) or exporting as green beans.
6. Quality inspection, grading (Grade 1, Grade 2, Specialty – SCAA 80+ points), and packaging.
