Praktikal na Pagkatuklas ng Kape at Kultura ng Vietnam

Sa coffee workshop, si Joey, isang Vietnamese na mahilig sa kape, ay nagbigay sa amin ng detalyadong paliwanag tungkol sa mga uri, paraan ng pagproseso, tradisyon, at kultura ng kape ng Vietnam. Ginabayan pa niya kami sa paggawa ng ilang Vietnamese coffees mismo. Dinala ng mga Pranses ang mga butil ng kape sa Vietnam, at dahil sa kakaibang heograpikal at klimatikal na kondisyon nito, ang Vietnam ay partikular na angkop para sa pagtatanim ng mga butil ng Robusta na kape. Ang kultura ng kape ay malalim na nakaugat sa buhay ng mga Vietnamese. Mula sa pagpili at pagpapatuyo ng mga butil hanggang sa paggawa, hinalo ko ang ilang kape kasama ang dalawang guwapong Argentinian. [tumatawa][tumatawa][tumatawa]

Ito ang pinakamagandang karanasan sa aking paglalakbay sa Ho Chi Minh!, Ako ay mahilig sa kape at gagawin ko ulit ang karanasang ito pagbalik ko!. Ang napakagandang gabay sa karanasan, si Siu, ay kahanga-hanga, ang kanyang pagpapakilala sa Viet coffee at kung paano ito gawing tama at ang kasaysayan sa likod nito ay walang kapantay. Talagang masasabi kong ito ay dapat gawin kapag bumisita sa Vietnam at Ho Chi Minh at maranasan ang magandang kape na nagmula sa mga lokal at organikong magsasaka at pamilya!

Ang workshop ng kape sa Sai Gon ay isang napakagandang hiyas at tunay na isa sa mga dapat itala. Lubos akong nabighani sa mayaman at masiglang kultura ng kape sa Vietnam. Ang karanasang ito ay higit pa sa simpleng pagtikim, ito ay nakaka-engganyo, nakaka-aliw, at taos-puso mula simula hanggang wakas. Ang presentasyon ay napakahusay. Hindi ka lamang manonood ng mga nakaka-inspire na video; ikaw ay mabubuhay sa kuwento. Nagawa kong magsaing, magtimpla, at malasap ang kape gamit ang aking sariling mga kamay, at bawat hakbang ay puno ng kagalakan at pagkatuto. Isang espesyal na pagbati kay An, ang aming kahanga-hangang gabay sa kape. Ang kanyang kahusayan sa Ingles, malalim na kaalaman, at kitang-kitang pagmamahal sa kape ng Vietnam ay nagdulot ng mas hindi malilimutang karanasan. Hindi lamang siya nagtuturo; ibinabahagi niya ang isang bahagi ng kanyang puso. Ang pinaka-nakaantig sa akin ay ang kanyang katapatan. Tunay siyang nagmamalasakit, palaging tinatanong kung mayroon akong mga tanong, tinitiyak na hindi lamang ako nagpapalutang sa mga lasa kundi pati na rin sa mga ugat at kaluluwa ng kape ng Vietnam. Kung sakaling mapunta ka sa Vietnam, ang workshop na ito ay dapat subukan. Ito ay hindi lamang tungkol sa kape. Ako

Got obsessed with Vietnamese coffee and decided to enroll in a coffee class while im in Vietnam. Based on the Klook description, I had an idea of what to expect, but the experience exceeded my expectations! I loved how hands-on the class was, and the instructors were pros. The class was fun, and it gave me a deeper appreciation for Vietnamese coffee culture. Trúc and Joey, my instructors, were amazing! They truly know their craft and were incredibly friendly and accommodating. Definitely a five-star experience at LeCaph and its fantastic instructors!

This is one of the highlights of our Ho Chi Minh trip. Perfect for those like us who are interested in the coffee culture and history in Vietnam. We learned a lot of things about coffee in Vietnam and we also got to try making coffee using Phin filter and V60. The class was really interesting and fun and our instructor, Ngoc, was so kind and accomodating. She is a good instructor as she explained all the things to us clearly. I can say that every little detail (from the presentation slides, to the videos, to the tasks) in this activity is well thought of and well made. There is even a nice little surprise at the end (I will not spoil it so you can see for yourself). Now that I am back home, I make coffee using the Phin filter and the ground coffee we bought from their shop. I’m so glad we booked this activity. Highly highly recommend this to everyone visiting Ho Chi Minh!

Vin is very friendly. He loves coffee and it shows when he was explaining to us. The program is very well crafted. It highlights coffee as rooted in the culture of Vietnam. It will be good to have actual farm tours and local cafe tours. But this crash course is good if you only have just 2 hours to spare.

非常棒的一次体验，我是淡季来的，今天只有我一个人，但是咖啡师AN还是很有耐心很充实的讲完了，对越南的咖啡历史有了更深刻的认识，所有咖啡配的甜品都很好吃，咖啡也都很独特，很推荐

One of the best experiences here in Vietnam. If you drink and breathe coffee, this one is for you. The staff were amazing especially Mike who was enthusiastic and very helpful from the start up until me getting over caffeinated (in a good way). Edit: Took another class, this time, egg coffee experience, thanks to Hiu, the class was very enjoyable and gained a lot more.

Had a great time in this coffee class. Sierra shared a lot of insightful knoweldge about Vietnam’s coffee culture, coffee roasting, and different brewing methods. The thank you gift that they give out at the end of the class is also something one would greatly appreciate.

This workshop was really well put together — it took me on a journey from the coffee farm all the way to the cup in front of me. It gave a nice glimpse into Vietnamese coffee culture, its roots, and how it’s evolved over time. I learned a lot about coffee beyond the usual Western styles and got to appreciate how special Vietnamese coffee really is. Julia was super friendly and clearly knew her stuff. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to experience authentic Vietnamese coffee culture and enjoy a great cup of coffee. Even my sister, who normally doesn’t drink coffee, loved their lemonade coffee — it was surprisingly refreshing!
