The Name may has been forgotten but the Taste still remains
Cau Dat is a region of over 1’500m height with a perfect condition for high quality Arabica (aka Mocha) growing.
The Cau Dat Mocha is the most sought after specialty coffee in Vietnam by world’s major coffee buyers.
As a hybrid cultivar between Caturra and Hibrido de Timor—the Cau Dat Mocha is best known for its rich aroma and clean acidity, totally different from Catimor of any other origin.
And the much cherished yellow cherry Typica which was the first to be farmed in this region hasn’t been writen off yet. It low yield once drove it to the verge of extinction now turns its traditional flavour into a much appreciated rarity.
