Why Us

Over the past 20 years we have seen the Vietnamese coffee industry change dramaticly. Coffee lovers no longer need to drink mass produced low quality "coffee", that has been cut with roasted soy beans and corn. These mass produced coffees from so called "famous" companies are also full of artificial chemical flavours, colours, animal fat, and "edible butter oil substitutes". You will see these companies only selling ground coffee and not whole beans, so you can’t see what is really in it.

These days in Vietnam, many small independent coffee roasters and cafés have emerged, with an aim to raise quality, and make drinking mass-produced rubbish a thing of the past.

Old Saigon brings to you the highest quality Vietnamese Coffee to enjoy right here in Australia.

OUR COFFEE

TRADITIONAL BLEND (100% Robusta)
This rich dark coffee is sourced from Vietnams most famous coffee growing region, Buon Ma Thuot. Roasted in small batches to a unique Vietnamese recipe, the coffee displays chocolate, vanilla and rum characters. Perfect for making Vietnamese iced coffee, ca phe sua da.

ARABICA/ROBUSTA
This delicious blend of Robusta sourced from Buon Ma Thuot, and Arabica sourced from Lam Dong, will not disappoint. The coffee displays the rich dark characters of Robusta, balanced with Arabica characters on the nose and palate.
Perfect for Vietnamese iced coffee, and also brews a lovely hot cup.

FINE ROBUSTA (SPECIALTY ROBUSTA) SINGLE ORIGIN
Recently the coffee industry in Vietnam has become focused on producing fine Robusta. Choosing the highest quality coffee cherries to process, these cherries are processed using the same methods and attention to detail as specialty Arabica coffees. The result is a complex tasting Robusta, which is now setting the standard for coffee in Vietnam.
To be classified as fine Robusta, the beans need to obtain a rating score of 80/100 or higher, by a qualified SCA (specialty coffee association) judge.
Unfortunately a number of producers and roasters in Vietnam are selling their coffee as Fine Robusta, but many of these coffees have never been judged at all. They are just cashing in on it. Any Fine Robusta sold by Old Saigon is guaranteed to have been offically judged by a SCA judge, and will have a score of 80+/100
