Đặc Đen Đắng: The Vietnamese Coffee Book

Coffee is deeply rooted in the culture of Việt Nam, an intrinsic part of the country’s history and society for over a hundred years. But have you ever wondered how Việt Nam became a global coffee powerhouse, the role coffee played in President Hồ Chí Minh’s rise to power, or how a small brown bean lifted thousands out of poverty and created a coffee culture unlike any other?

Đặc Đen Đắng: The Vietnamese Coffee Book answers these questions and more. It shares the story of Việt Nam and its coffee, tales of people who work in the country’s booming coffee sector, and the role coffee has played in shaping Việt Nam since the arrival of the first beans more than 160 years ago.

Đặc Đen Đắng: The Vietnamese Coffee Book is 27.1cm by 35.7cm and 2.2cm thick (10.7″, 14.0″, 0.9″). It weighs in at 2.1kg (4.6lbs). It can comfortably fit in a regular size carry-on suitcase.
