Where to buy coffee beans in Nha Trang, and which beans are better if you want a smoother taste and plan to brew them at home?

Based on 1 discussion with 3 participants · Last activity: 11 days ago

TL;DR

The most practical tip is to buy from the La Viet shop in Nha Trang and ask staff for a smoother, less astringent profile. Also specify your brewing method, because some local coffee works better with a Vietnamese phin filter than in an espresso machine.

What the community said

If you want coffee without strong bitterness or astringency, the easiest option is to go to the La Viet shop and clearly describe the taste you want, even through a translator if needed. Based on the feedback, both their drip bags and whole beans worked well after staff made a recommendation.

When buying beans in Nha Trang, tell the seller how you brew coffee: one buyer said their coffee did not work well in a coffee machine and was only suitable for a Vietnamese phin filter.

If you are bringing coffee home as a gift, it is safer to buy beans from a specialty place like La Viet rather than random souvenir packs, and choose them for a specific taste and brewing method. This matters especially if the recipient uses a coffee machine instead of a phin filter.
