Drip Craft - Vietnamese Coffee Workshop
Vietnam
Vietnamese cà phê phin is a traditional drip-brew coffee made using a small metal filter. Hot water slowly passes through dark roasted grounds, creating a strong, bold flavor. Often enjoyed black (cà phê đen) or with sweetened condensed milk (cà phê sữa đá), it embodies Vietnam’s coffee culture—unhurried, aromatic, and deeply social, inviting conversation over every sip.
