A brief introduction to the History and Culture of the Origin and Development of Coffee in Vietnam, a Coffee exporter in the World

There are many kinds of cafes in Vietnam. One is cafes with fixed storefronts. Like most cafes, they provide customers with all kinds of coffee and some refreshments. You can choose to spend half a day here. In Vietnam, there are several such cafes in less than a kilometer on the street, and there are three steps and one shop on the bustling avenue. The other is open-air cafes, which have no face. when they open for business, the boss will move a chic small high table and some chairs from his home in the alley deep in the street and put them in the shade of trees, or put up an umbrella to do business in the street. people who like sunbathing will casually sit down and order a cup, while enjoying the motorcycle beauties driving by on the street, while enjoying the mellow Vietnamese coffee. The other is the most special, there is no storefront, no table, no sunshade, only a wheelbarrow and a cool Vietnamese boy are selling coffee, this kind of mobile cafe is actually the most popular, they are all over the streets, wander in the middle of the city, and stop where there is business. If pedestrians want a drink, just wave and enjoy it.

The general brewing methods of ultra-fine coffee powder in Vietnam are:

Take 30g coffee powder, dripping pot (dripping iron), condensed milk, sugar.

1. Iron the coffee cup and drip pot before brewing.

two。 Put the coffee in the drip pot and cover it.

3. Soak with boiling water, it will drip slowly below. Pay attention to the coffee cup below to keep warm, it is recommended to keep warm in a bowl with boiling water, according to the taste of condensed milk and sugar, like and iced coffee can also add a few pieces of ice, the taste is also good.

The whole process takes only 10 minutes. Don't be afraid to waste time if you want to taste the good taste.

Today's production power, 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 planted near Tonkin Bay, mostly Java or bourbon varieties.

At present, coffee production in Vietnam is growing. Among Vietnam's new export products, tea ranks first and coffee ranks second. The main varieties produced are Robbite coffee beans, which exported 66000 bags in 1980 and soared to more than 200,000 tons in 1994. 96% of Robert's coffee comes from small farms, but some state-owned farms also grow coffee trees.

The yield of coffee in Vietnam is as high as 950 kilograms 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.

I do not know since when, Vietnam has suddenly become the second largest coffee exporter in the world, after Brazil, among which Robusta coffee beans, which make three-in-one instant coffee, are the largest, with an output of as much as 1/4 of the world. World-famous coffee retailers such as Starbucks and Nestl é are all big customers of Vietnamese coffee exports. At present, coffee beans are widely grown in Vietnam, and the best coffee beans come from Bangmeishu, Grand Lat Province. the local climate is very suitable for growing coffee, and it has been rated as one of the top ten coffee producing areas in the world. It is not long since Vietnam began to grow coffee. It was only when the French landed in Vietnam and began a century-long colonial rule that they brought coffee, their proudest leisure drink, to Vietnam, where coffee has taken root ever since.

Although the French have withdrawn from the political arena of Vietnam, the influence of a hundred years of colonial rule on a nation is indelible. Perhaps the brand of French cultural life will never be eliminated. It has become a part of Vietnamese culture and will be passed on. Walking on the streets of Vietnam, if it were not for the scorching sun and dark Asian faces, the French signs everywhere would make people feel like they are on the streets of France. In particular, countless cafes standing on the streets and open-air cafes made of brightly colored canvas make Vietnam show a bit of French style in Asian countries.
