Boutique coffee (specialty coffee) is also called "specialty coffee" or "select coffee". It refers to coffee made from a small number of raw beans with excellent taste grown in an ideal geographical environment. Depending on the special soil and climatic conditions in which they grow, they have outstanding flavor. After strict selection and classification, this kind of coffee can be regarded as a selection of coffee beans because of its hard texture, rich taste and excellent flavor.

Viet Nam

Today's production country, tomorrow's production giant.

Perhaps under the influence of French colonial rule, coffee grown in Vietnam has a French flavor. Arabica coffee was first brought to Vietnam by French missionaries. More than 400,000 coffee trees were introduced to Vietnam from 1865 to 1876 and were planted near Tonkin Bay, mostly Java or bourbon varieties.

At present, Vietnam's coffee production is growing. Among Vietnam's new export products, tea ranks first and coffee ranks second. The main varieties produced are Robbins coffee beans, which exported 66000 bags in 1982 and soared to more than 200,000 tons in 1994. 96% of Robart coffee comes from small farms, but some state-owned farms also grow coffee trees.

Vietnam produces 950 kilograms of coffee per hectare, and many newly planted coffee trees are invested by the Japanese.

Two years ago, I read a survey report that Vietnam has overtaken Colombia in coffee bean production, ranking second in the world after Brazil. But the trees planted are Robusta trees, and there is still a big gap between the quality of coffee beans and countries like Colombia and Brazil.
