Saigon Café Blend
A true traditional Vietnamese-style blend with signature Vietnamese Highland Robusta and premium award-winning Arabica and Catimor beans. That chocolatey flavor you love is here in a coffee we created ourselves... now our top-seller coffee to restaurants and cafés. All natural, vegan, premium coffee with an amazingly smooth, chocolatey, buttery profile hot or iced.
Our many years as a supplier to the USA of famous Vietnamese brands of coffee including Trung Nguyen and Highlands Coffee have shown us the secrets of the genuine Vietnamese coffee taste. And we love having control over the grind... our customers enjoy brewing with the Phin, French Press and drip machines, and most Vietnamese coffees do not do equally well in all three. Our "perfect grind" will deliver an optimal 4-5 minute brewing time in the Phin and works well with press or drip machines (coarse drip is the setting). Or choose whole bean to adjust for the grind you want. Our dry process will not clog your grinder or grind-and-brew machine like the Trung Nguyen whole beans tend to do.
Serve up genuine Vietnamese café taste in your own kitchen every morning!
8 oz bag, choose coarse drip or whole bean.

As good as TN Creative 4 whole beans
We had be purchasing TN Creative 4 whole beans, until Len’s stopped ordering. This is just as good. We make cappuccinos every morning using 50:50this and Mexican Mocha whole beans. Fab!!!

Incredible aroma and taste
The blend is perfect. I'm seriously impressed and everyone that I have shared this coffee with agrees. I wish that I bought more than 1 bag. Stock up on this blend and you will not regret it. Highly recommended.

Very good coffee
This is excellent stuff but the roasting profile is a little dark for my taste. I'm fairly new to the Robusta coffee experience and so far am loving it - l love the richness and mouthfeel along with the taste. It all seems more substantial than Arabica.
The beans in this blend are obviously very high quality and well taken care of. Only thing that makes it 4 and not 5 star is that the roasting point is a little beyond my preference.
This is my first order from Len's and service is great and shipping was fast! I learned of Robusta from Asser Christiansen AKA the Coffee Chronicler. I highly recommend his website at coffeechronicler.com , his blog and YouTube channel. One of his subscribers recommended Len's. Now I'm on to Jerome Street Blend!Posted by Robert on Oct 23rd 2020

Good substitute
After trying all of the TN beans, we have settled on "Creative 4" as our favorite and have been ordering after my trips to Viet Nam in June 2001 as soonas Len began importing. When he was out recently of those beans we ordered these instead at his suggestion. They are quite good and an excellent substitute when necessary.

This creation is a success.
This coffee has the flavor of Viet Nam - they did a beautiful job of creating it.

Delicious Blend
This coffee blend is aromatic and tasty. Not too strong but full bodied. It definitely has a taste that I can't put my finger on. But is definitely not rum of the mill coffee. Try it you might love it

The Araku Valley of India
India's coffee tradition goes back 400 years or more, when a variety called Kent was first established in the Southern Hills. Arabicas predominated until the blight of 1870, when growers needed to hybridize to resistant varieties. The resultant strains had genes from Liberica and other unique, resistant species.
