The NEW Vietnamese Dalat Blend
It's back! A re-imagined Dalat Blend featuring superb Blue Son La Bourbon Arabica in two roast levels blended with the best Highland Peaberry Robusta in the world and just a touch of Catimor!
The new Dalat Blend is compellingly delicious and satisfying, and totally unique in its Vietnamese traditional profile.
This traditional Arabica/Robusta blend brews well in any drip machine, pourover, or French Press, and makes an excellent espresso, with a perfect ratio of brightness, sharp initial impression, full body, and strong taste retention. If intended as espresso, please choose whole bean and grind to your preference. 8 oz bag of roasted coffee, Harlequin (multi-temperature) roast. Please select ground or whole bean.
Our new FIRE ROASTED Dalat Blend is likewise a double temperature roast, and is fired-grilled by Len on a rotisserie similar to that used in the countryside of Vietnam by small cafés and coffee stands. In traditional style, we toss the hot beans with a little natural flavor extracts of butter and chocolate to get that quintessential home-grown flavor profile. Fire-roasting creates a lively bold taste that "ripens" in the cup to a smooth finish.
Key notes: Chocolate, caramel, butter, "classic coffee" aroma.

DaLat blend is excellent
This is some of the tastiest coffee I have consumed, I use a Phin with a spoonful of cane sugar, sweetened condensed milk and a little vanilla or Italian sweet creamer !

Game Changer
I can't comment on how this compares to other blends like it - there are a lot to choose from so I've got a bunch of variety to explore in my upcoming orders. This is the first Robusta heavy blend I've had. I associated it with everything I've disliked about darker roasted coffee - I don't think past me was wrong, I think it's true that darker roasts were covering up bad beans, and the robusta beans that other folks were sourcing probably were sub-standard. I feel like robusta beans might be like vermouth - once everyone decided vermouth is just for mixing, it became reasonable to make it cheaply and poorly. But none of this has to be this way! I have tasted a new way for it to be! This blend was delightful and eye opening.

Great Blend
Great Blend, wonderful floral background without being too sweet! Also a special flavor I can't identify. Had it as a pour through several times, will order again.

Bourbon Arabica Stands Out
I was sceptical at first. The vanilla hazelnut element must have been added as it is in flavored supermarket coffees. Reassured by the coffee gurus, now I enjoy it. The right balance, too. Too much dark or darker roasts are unpleasant to me. Is this Bourbon Arabica flavor specific to Dalat beans?

Excellent coffee
First tasted this coffee in Long Beach and loved it from the first sip. Wonderful caramel taste and a nice kick as I use two scoops per cup.
Thanks to Len's Coffee for shipping it to my hotel in Las Vegas so I could collect it on my holiday as they don't ship to the UK.Posted by Unknown on Sep 19th 2018

Love this blend!
I'm a fan of robusta heavy bean blends, and this one is the best! I've been ordering it for over 2 years and no matter what other brands or blends I try, I always come back for Len's Dalat Blend!

I love this coffee!
I'm a freak deep chocolate tones in espresso... and I know that means robusta beans. This blend is my favorite!

Great coffee.
I am a huge fan of Vietnam and it's creations. I have drank traditional Vietnamese coffee for many years. When I saw this coffee, I knew it must be good. Vietnam is the second largest producer of coffee in the world and this is a good example why.
It is a little bit less bold than I like, but the taste is superb. Highly recommend.Posted by Skip Nelson on Jun 10th 2017

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.
