Vietnam has the second largest coffee production in the world, and most coffee tastes good, coupled with the influence of French leisure culture, so its people's love for coffee is second only to our dependence on tea. Walking on the streets of Vietnam, you can see traces of colonization, not only French buildings, but also the habit of drinking coffee. Walking on the streets of Hanoi, there must be a cafe every few dozens of meters. A cup of Cappuccino equivalent to 15 yuan is mellow and delicious. People who like coffee don't know how to feel. Street vendors can be seen everywhere, selling French pointed bread. There are small tables and chairs and signs marked cafe's "cafes", not only in urban Vietnam, but also in some villages and towns along the way. Vietnamese also have a strong sense of their identity. Vietnamese of French descent will tell you clearly that they are French Vietnamese. Such a place as Vietnam, adhering to the traditional spirit and culture of the Chinese, with the romantic attitude of the French, is perhaps the most unexplored new land for you to explore in the new century. The old colonists brought pain and instilled culture, language and way of life into the depths of the city, especially in Ha long Wan, when the lights were on, neon lights were blurred in front of cafes everywhere on the street, and the fragrance of French coffee pervaded from the window.

Anecdotes of Vietnamese Coffee

There is an interesting anecdote about coffee in Vietnam. There is a little-known coffee called "squirrel dung" in Vietnam. It comes from the rare alpine areas of Vietnam, the aroma is very mellow, light acidity and soft bitterness can be called the perfect combination. Every coffee picking season, people will let the animals out, let them wanton "enjoy" the whole day. Squirrels drain out the indigestible parts of the coffee fruit every time they spend a lot of time. People collect these coffee beans, clean them in clean water, and then process them into "squirrel dung" coffee. However, the coffee is not available in Vietnam because the farms that produce "squirrel dung" coffee beans are run by official government agencies. The output is extremely limited and is mainly used to give gifts to foreign guests and employees of multinational companies stationed in Vietnam.
