Origin Story
The story behind this cup.
Mocha coffee takes its name from the Yemeni port city — but Vietnamese Mocha has its own independent lineage, cultivated quietly on small farms in central Vietnam for over a century.
The beans are tiny and irregular — qualities that would disqualify them from commercial grading, but that produce an extraordinary cup. Most Vietnamese farmers don't bother, which is why it remains so rare.
We source only from farms willing to hand-sort and dry carefully. Quantities are limited each season. When it's gone, it's gone.
