Highlights
  • 396 Đ. Trường Sa - To begin with, you have the option to indulge in a variety of beverages such as salted cream coffee, juicy coffee, or a robust espresso. As you enjoy your beverage, our guides will present videos showcasing the farm where the coffee beans were cultivated and picked at peak ripeness. You’ll have the opportunity to handle the coffee beans and learn to identify the differences between natural, honey, and wet processing methods. Interestingly, the same coffee beans can yield distinct flavors depending on the processing technique used. Similarly, the flavor profile can be altered by varying the roasting techniques.

Subsequently, you’ll be educated on the fundamental concepts of coffee extraction. You’ll discover how the flavors of saltiness, sourness, sweetness, and bitterness are sequentially extracted during the brewing process. You’ll also learn about the impact of grind size, water temperature, and brewing duration on the final taste of the coffee. Moreover, you’ll receive guidance on how to manually brew your own coffee using a phin. It’s fascinating to think that with the same coffee samples and equipment, each person can produce a uniquely flavored cup of coffee. Indeed, even the manner in which you pour the water can influence the flavor of your coffee. Join us for this hands-on experience.

Amazing iO coffee Workshop Trip! - Getting amazing and enlightened by the jouney back to the source of fresh coffee drink which we adore to have a cup nowadays! Not only giving us the opportunity to have a try and enjoy a cup of truly fresh and handmade coffe, the Workshop’s Baristas also letting us understand and way more telling the difference between the Arbica and Robusta coffee beans! We experienced the subtle methods to make a delicious cup of coffee. Every method’d bring the different tastes ( some has the bittersweet taste, some has the light taste to combine with fruit, some has a dark and bitter as dark chocolate taste! ) I’m really satisfied to have a significant experiences at IO coffee Workshop!

PERFECT - Before coming here, I was just a regular customer enjoying coffee What I learned here was that there are so many stories inside a tiny coffee bean, and an entire art to preparing and enjoying it The address of the place is very easy to find, the parking lot is large. We arrived just as the place was opening, and were greeted warmly I was very impressed with Manh's enthusiasm and love for coffee

New Vietnamese Coffee! - I participated in this coffee workshop this morning and loved it. I learned a lot through what John shared with me, through this workshop now I can identify good quality coffee. Making my own cup of coffee using "phin" is one of the parts that I really enjoy!

First time I've participated in a coffee workshop like this - First time I've participated in a coffee workshop like this It's truly wonderful. Thanks to that, I learned more about coffee, especially "specialty coffee". And feel loved about them. Before, I hated it so much, because it mostly tasted very bitter. But through this participation, I have a different perspective on coffee. Thank you very much iO coffee

WONDERFUL DAY - Grateful that I had a great experience at a super favorable price. The introducer is attractive, confident and has a deep understanding of coffee in the world. I expanded my knowledge about types of coffee and how to brew coffee properly without losing the nutrients of coffee. Make your own cup of coffee with professional tools. In short, a super worthwhile experience
