Saigon Tradition, Highland Robusta Blend
Similar in style to Trung Nguyen Creative 1 and Highlands Coffee Heritage Blend, our own fresh-roast Robusta Blend is sure to please anybody with a "back" palate who loves deep, dark, delicious coffee with high body and persistence. That chocolatey flavor you love is here in a coffee we created ourselves. All natural, vegan, premium coffee with an amazingly smooth, chocolatey, buttery profile. High in caffeine. Great hot or iced; excellent choice for making cold brew.
This new crop of Highland Robusta from Vietnam blended with Indian Organic Robusta and just 10% of Vietnamese Blue Son La Arabica! The roast level is Harlequin (Multi-Temperature) in which we roast each bean at its optimal temperature.
Select 8oz whole bean or drip grind (slightly coarse, ideal for for Phin brewing, French Press, or cone-shape drip machines and pour-overs).
More Information
Notes: Chocolate, butter, apricot, brown sugar. High in caffeine.
This is our second blend in our new line of Trung-Nguyen-inspired coffees that adhere to the original taste and quality of the Vietnamese coffee style that is taking the world by storm. 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).
High in caffeine due to the peaberry Robusta. It is about 180 mg per serving, about the same level as Creative 1 (an "average" cup of coffee contains about 90-100 mg, for comparison).
Contains peaberry Robusta with Arabica and natural flavor extracts, similar to the original traditional "secret" recipe of Vietnam.

It's OK
It's a nice cup of coffee. Unfortunately, my favorite wasn't available, so I bought this as a default. You won't go wrong with this coffee, as it is of good quality and smooth taste.

Lovely
This coffee has wonderful aroma and a rich taste profile. It also is not as acidic as so much of the coffee on the market. We drink coffee black,

Great Blend
Nice Chocolatey background, but less artificial tasting flavor than some coffees. Better grind for pour through than some other brands. Really good.

The best coffee!
I started ordering from Len's because I wanted a robusta bean. Didn't expect to get such a delicious coffee!! I get all my coffee from Len's now. Never disappointed. They taste freshly roasted and consistently delicious. Also speedy delivery!

Killer coffee
This is far and away my favorite coffee. Mixed with condensed milk, it is just like what you'd get in Saigon.

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.
