Review Body: Super high energy team who was very engaging and organized throughout the whole session and even in the weeks leading to the event! There was constant check in to make sure that they've all the dietary requirements in place and our preferences for the coffee flavours and snacks menu. Love that they also had dedicated camera crew folks who helped to capture many nice shots during the team event. On the day of the event, they were really accommodating and helped to conduct the teambuilding event at our workshop premises due to the road closures for the National Day event - everything went smoothly and everyone really enjoyed the session! Highly recommended!!

Review Body: The experience at Local Bean Roastery was excellent! Giang led the session and did an amazing job explaining everything about Vietnamese coffee, including its history, culture, and different preparation styles. She was very knowledgeable, friendly, and made the whole experience feel engaging and special. We also had the chance to try two local wines, which was a great and unexpected addition to the experience. Everything was very well organized, informative, and enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this experience to anyone interested in learning more about Vietnamese coffee and local flavors. Five stars!

Review Body: Transport was provided to and fro our hotel - that was a big plus point. Coffee class was held in a clean, quiet and nicely decorated unit. Lin spoke perfect English, her class was easy to follow for us (novice level). History of the coffee beans was interesting. We found her Coconut Coffee better tasting than most commercial cafes in Hanoi! Her presentation slides were concise and there was lots of laughter when we were guessing what beans were in each jar. My teens enjoyed making coffee! A delightful way to get to know Vietnam and its coffee culture!

Review Body: This was a fantastic workshop. Every staff member involved was helpful, professional and polite. Lyn, our host, eagerly shared her expert knowledge of the coffee culture in Vietnam then proceeded to guide us when we were making 6 types of coffee often imbibed in Vietnam. It was great fun, made even better by using professional, well looked after equipment. It was a gently paced workshop where I didn't feel hurried. We're going to be sent recipes to try and recreate them at home. A highly recommended workshop. Thank you team.

Review Body: Amazing experience! Learning about the different coffees and Vietnamese culture was great! We were also able to taste different Vietnamese wines made in-house by Luka. Only downside is that on seeksophie it states that lunch will be provided, but due to the different booking the company has we did not get lunch. However we got a decent discount towards our purchases. Just something to be aware of if you book through this platform. Still highly recommend this experience! Also the egg coffee was amazing!

Review Body: Our host, Lin, was so passionate about coffee because her hometown is one of the few places in Vietnam that grows Arabica coffee. She was patient, kind, funny, and full of coffee knowledge. This was a magical coffee experience full of active learning. They also provide you with all of the resources you need to take your new skill of making Vietnamese coffee back home. Highly recommend to all coffee lovers! So organized and a highlight of my time in Hanoi :)

Review Body: It was a snap decision to book the coffee workshop - and one of the best decisions we made during our stay in Vietnam. We love Vietnamese coffee and although we had tasted most coffee specialties that were introduced during the workshop before, we enjoyed making them ourselves enormously. The workshop was a wonderful experience which we highly recommend to anyone who is into Vietnamese coffee and would like to know more.
