Culture
Millions of people, from London to Manhattan to Sydney, regularly burn their fingers clinging to a chain brand throwaway cup as they endure the battle into work with ‘coffee to go.’
For those of us used to sampling coffee on the run, the Vietnamese coffee experience comes as a shock to the system. Time is on the side of coffee here, not against it.
The beverage may provide the same quick hit as elsewhere, the use of the strong, homegrown Robusta bean makes sure of that, but the hit is where the similarities begin and end. You are now in the land of coffee connoisseurs.

Deriving its name from the South African traditional trumpet, Vuvuzela plans to bring about a completely new level of drinking style.
