Saigon (Arabica & Robusta Blend)

Bringing together the unique qualities of both robusta and arabica coffee beans, our Saigon roast is reflective of the most dynamic and progressive city in Vietnam. It’s a perfect blend of tradition and new energy.

We import quality Vietnamese coffee beans from our partner farms in Vietnam and roast weekly in Brooklyn, New York. Note: Our ground coffee size is medium and tastes great with phin filters, drip, pour over and french press.

The Saigon blend, crafted by Nguyen Coffee Supply, represents a distinct approach to coffee production by combining Arabica and Robusta beans. This specific composition highlights the traditional blending practices often found in Vietnam, where the integration of these two species is utilized to achieve a particular balance of body and flavor profile. While Arabica is frequently celebrated for its acidity and nuanced aromatics, Robusta is often valued for its bold intensity and rich crema, making their union a staple of the region's coffee culture.

When evaluating the sensory characteristics of such blends, it is helpful to reference a flavor wheel to identify the interplay between the two varieties. Because the profile of a blend depends heavily on the ratio of beans and the specific roast degree applied, drinkers may find that the Saigon blend offers a unique experience that differs significantly from single-origin offerings.
