Truong Lam Home Blend - 3 Pack
This is a quintessential Vietnamese house blend like a visitor might find at a sidewalk café in any Vietnamese town. It's a blend of multiple coffee species, like most of the best Vietnamese coffees, containing Buon Me Thuot Highlands Arabica, Robusta, (on the label it says 'Cherry' but this is a transliteration of Chari, which is their word for Excelsa), with the delightful addition of Moka, a variety of Arabica with petite beans and a naturally chocolatey taste. The roast is a deep butter-roast, and the flavor is quite sweet, dark, and very full, with a pleasant bitter edge. It's especially good iced with milk and sugar in traditional Vietnamese iced coffee style.
As with all traditional Vietnamese "butter roast" coffees, some natural extracts, butter oil and a touch of salt and sugar are most likely used in its preparation. Generally "butter roast" does not necessarily mean butter, it is sometimes a vegetable oil for stability. So we cannot vouch for whether this product is Vegan or not. For guaranteed Vegan products, you may want to try our Saigon Blends line, which we create ourselves and know is 100% Vegan.

Great for blending with other coffees!
I use 1 part Truong Lam Home Blend to 3 parts of the Nicaraguan El Recreo Estate Swiss Water Process Decaf to make a strong tasting coffee concentrate using the Toddy cold brewing method. The resulting concentrate is very good served straight over ice cubes or mixed with cold milk. We also mix it with a Trung Nguyen Creative 4 concentrate for the morning caffeine fix, a wonderful way to wake up!

Constant favorite
We have sampled many of the coffee varieties sold by Heirloom Coffee and we keep coming back to Truong Lam. It has a wonderful depth of flavor and some inherent sweetness.

So sweet...Sugar?
I'm puzzled by how sweet this coffee is. It tastes like sugar is already added. I usually don't add sugar to my coffee, so this tastes extra sweet to me. Can anyone tell me more about this coffee? The last ingredient listed is "Bo." That translates to "butter," correct?
I like to make iced coffee with this blend, mixed with 60% of my usual espresso to cut the sweetness.Posted by Helen on Oct 25th 2016

Love it
It's (almost) the only coffee I buy. I love the deep chocolatey flavor.
I usually mix it with a regular espresso (anything...) to give it more acidity and remove a bit if the sweetness.Posted by Nico on Oct 2nd 2016

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.
