Nam Coffee
Curator’s note
Nam's second room is smaller than the flagship and points its patio at produce stalls and hair salons. The coffee did not change on the way over (one family's farm on Langbiang mountain, roasted light and slow, run through a phin), which is the whole reason to trust a bar this new.
Coffee brewed through the traditional Vietnamese phin filter, from the same Da Lat beans sold by the bag.
The coffee
Same single-farm Da Lat sourcing and house blends as East Hollywood. Phin-brewed base under the sweeter builds; retail bags carry roast level and tasting notes.
