The roots of Vietnamese coffee culture run deep, tracing back to the French colonial era when coffee plants were first introduced. Over time, the Vietnamese have transformed this foreign beverage into something uniquely their own. These traditions not only showcase creativity but also resilience, as they evolved to suit local tastes and resources.

Guided by experts passionate about Vietnam’s coffee culture, you’ll gain hands-on experience and take home not only recipes but also a deeper appreciation for the art and history behind every cup.

The culinary traditions of Vietnam are deeply intertwined with its lifestyle and spirituality. Markets are not just places to shop; they are the heart of the community, where locals gather to exchange not just goods but stories and traditions. In Buddhist practices, food preparation is an act of mindfulness and gratitude, often reflected in vegetarian meals that honor the connection between nature and humanity. Cooking in Vietnam is more than a skill—it’s a way of life that carries the values of simplicity, balance, and respect for the earth.
