The first is the evolution of caf\u00e9 culture. Major chains such as Highlands Coffee and The Coffee House have added matcha drinks to their menus, and more than 10 matcha specialty caf\u00e9s have opened within Ho Chi Minh City. The second is rising health consciousness. The younger generation has taken note of catechins and theanine, creating a flow of choosing matcha as an alternative to coffee. The third is the Japanese-food boom. Following sushi and ramen, matcha is being chosen as a \u201cdistinctly Japanese experience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Chances to encounter matcha while caf\u00e9-hopping or choosing souvenirs are rising sharply, making it a presence you can\u2019t ignore as a theme for a Vietnam trip.<\/p>\n<h2>Vietnam\u2019s main matcha production area: Bao Loc, Lam Dong Province<\/h2>\n<p>Indispensable to any discussion of Vietnamese-grown matcha is Bao Loc in Lam Dong Province. About four hours by car northeast of Ho Chi Minh City, this town sits in highland terrain at around 800 meters elevation and has long been called \u201cVietnam\u2019s tea capital.\u201d Tea cultivation began in the French colonial era, and some of the country\u2019s largest tea fields still spread out here.<\/p>\n<h3>Tea leaves nurtured by 800-meter highlands and mist<\/h3>\n<p>\u30d0\u30aa\u30ed\u30c3\u30af\u306e\u8336\u683d\u57f9\u306b\u9069\u3057\u305f\u6761\u4ef6\u306f3\u3064\u3002\u5e74\u5e73\u5747\u6c17\u6e2922\u5ea6\u524d\u5f8c\u306e\u51b7\u6dbc\u306a\u6c17\u5019\u3001\u5e74\u9593\u3092\u901a\u3058\u3066\u767a\u751f\u3059\u308b\u9727\u3001\u305d\u3057\u3066\u7c92\u5b50\u306e\u7d30\u304b\u3044\u7384\u6b66\u5ca9\u8cea\u306e\u571f\u58cc\u3067\u3059\u3002\u9727\u3084\u51b7\u6dbc\u306a\u6c17\u5019\u306f\u8336\u683d\u57f9\u306e\u7279\u5fb4\u3067\u3059\u304c\u3001\u9727\u3068\u65e5\u672c\u5f0f\u306e\u88ab\u8986\u683d\u57f9\u306f\u540c\u3058\u3067\u306f\u3042\u308a\u307e\u305b\u3093\u3002\u30c6\u30a2\u30cb\u30f3\u91cf\u3084\u5b87\u6cbb\u30fb\u897f\u5c3e\u3068\u306e\u985e\u4f3c\u6027\u306f\u3001\u5546\u54c1\u3054\u3068\u306e\u683d\u57f9\u30fb\u5206\u6790\u8cc7\u6599\u304c\u306a\u3051\u308c\u3070\u65ad\u5b9a\u3067\u304d\u307e\u305b\u3093\u3002<\/p>\n<h3>Adoption of Japanese-style shade cultivation<\/h3>\n<p>From the latter half of the 2010s, Japanese-style shade-cultivation (shading) techniques were adopted in earnest in Bao Loc\u2019s tea gardens. Covering the tea leaves with black shade nets for about 20 days raises theanine content and suppresses catechins, the bitter component\u2014this technique is the core of high-grade Japanese matcha. In Bao Loc, several factories operate that, in addition to this method, carry out the process all the way to grinding the leaves with a dedicated stone mill.<\/p>\n<h3>VietGAP and organic certification<\/h3>\n<p>Tea gardens with an eye on exports to Europe and North America are increasingly obtaining international certifications such as Organic JAS and USDA Organic, on top of VietGAP, Vietnam\u2019s own good agricultural practices. Meeting the demands of advanced markets with strict residual-pesticide standards has led to a quality lift across the whole production area.<\/p>\n<h2>Doi Dep\u2014a premium matcha brand from Bao Loc<\/h2>\n<p>The name that comes up as the front-runner of Vietnamese matcha is Doi Dep, based in Bao Loc. By combining vast in-house tea gardens with Japanese-style equipment, it has pioneered Vietnam\u2019s domestic premium matcha market, and among matcha lovers it has become an object of surprise: \u201ccan Vietnamese-grown matcha really be finished to this level?\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>The origin of the brand name: \u201ca pair of sandals\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>\u201cDoi Dep\u201d is a Vietnamese phrase meaning \u201ca pair of sandals.\u201d Because sandals only function once they form a pair, the name is held up as a brand concept symbolizing \u201cthe inseverable relationship between people, between land and people, and between nature and people.\u201d The philosophy of valuing the ties among tea garden, artisan, and consumer also has something in common with the Japanese culture of hospitality.<\/p>\n<h3>Adoption of Japanese-style techniques and inviting experts<\/h3>\n<p>Doi Dep\u306e\u516c\u5f0f\u30b5\u30a4\u30c8\u3067\u306f\u3001\u30d0\u30aa\u30ed\u30c3\u30af\u306e\u8336\u3001\u30ae\u30d5\u30c8\u3001\u30ea\u30be\u30fc\u30c8\u4e8b\u696d\u306f\u78ba\u8a8d\u3067\u304d\u307e\u3059\u3002\u4e00\u65b9\u3001\u65e5\u672c\u4eba\u5c02\u9580\u5bb6\u306e\u62db\u8058\u3001\u77f3\u81fc\u633d\u304d\u3001\u30c6\u30a2\u30cb\u30f3\u5024\u304c\u65e5\u672c\u7523\u306b\u8feb\u308b\u3068\u3044\u3046\u4e3b\u5f35\u306f\u3001\u4eca\u56de\u78ba\u8a8d\u3067\u304d\u305f\u516c\u5f0f\u30da\u30fc\u30b8\u3067\u306f\u88cf\u3065\u3051\u3092\u53d6\u308c\u307e\u305b\u3093\u3067\u3057\u305f\u3002\u8cfc\u5165\u6642\u306f\u5546\u54c1\u306e\u88cf\u9762\u8868\u793a\u3068\u88fd\u6cd5\u8aac\u660e\u3092\u512a\u5148\u3057\u3066\u304f\u3060\u3055\u3044\u3002<\/p>\n<h3>Running a Tea Resort<\/h3>\n<p>What sets Doi Dep apart from other brands is that it runs a luxury \u201cTea Resort\u201d integrated with the tea gardens.

Besides specialty shops, they have come to be seen at some upscale supermarkets in Ho Chi Minh City and at airport souvenir shops.<\/p>\n<h2>Differences between Japanese-grown and Vietnamese-grown matcha<\/h2>\n<p>What surprises many Japanese people drinking Vietnamese-grown matcha for the first time is that the flavor is lighter than they imagined. Organizing the differences from Japanese-grown matcha from a resident\u2019s point of view looks like this.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\">\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Item<\/th>\n<th>Japanese-grown matcha (Uji, Nishio)<\/th>\n<th>Vietnamese-grown matcha (Bao Loc)<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Color<\/td>\n<td>Deep, rich green<\/td>\n<td>Bright yellow-green<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Aroma<\/td>\n<td>Umami-driven, like nori seaweed<\/td>\n<td>Grassy, like fresh greenery<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Flavor<\/td>\n<td>Rich umami and sweetness<\/td>\n<td>Light and refreshing, with a faint acidity<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Price range (30g)<\/td>\n<td>1,500\u20135,000 yen<\/td>\n<td>500\u20131,500 yen<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Best ways to drink<\/td>\n<td>Koicha and usucha (straight)<\/td>\n<td>Lattes, sweets, and cooking<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n<p>Japanese-grown is designed with an emphasis on umami, on the premise of \u201cwhisking and drinking.\u201d Vietnamese-grown, by contrast, has restrained umami due to the difference in climate, and shows its true worth in latte and sweet uses paired with milk or sweetness.

Can I bring Vietnamese-grown matcha back to Japan?<\/strong><br \/>A. For processed powdered matcha, there are no special restrictions on bringing it into Japan. However, since separate rules apply to bringing in large quantities for commercial use, please enjoy it within the scope of personal souvenirs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q. How long does it keep?<\/strong><br \/>A. As a guide, about 1 to 1.5 years from production while unopened. After opening, refrigerating it and finishing it within a month is recommended.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q. Can I whisk it the same way as Japanese matcha?<\/strong><br \/>A. You can whisk it with the same chasen, but since Vietnamese-grown has a lighter flavor, it is better suited to lattes and sweets. If you do whisk it, the trick is to adjust it on the thin side, with more hot water for a small amount.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q. Can I visit Doi Dep\u2019s Tea Resort as a tourist?<\/strong><br \/>A. Yes, you can. Bao Loc is about four hours by car from Ho Chi Minh City and about two hours from Da Lat. It accommodates everything from a day trip combining a tea-garden tour and a matcha experience to an overnight stay.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q. Is there Vietnamese matcha with organic certification?<\/strong><br \/>A. Some premium brands have products certified by Organic JAS or USDA. Check the certification mark on the package when choosing.<\/p>\n<h2>A summary of choosing Vietnamese matcha souvenirs<\/h2>\n<p>Vietnamese-grown matcha is growing fast as \u201canother Vietnamese-grown indulgence\u201d next to coffee. Led by Doi Dep from Bao Loc, a distinctive matcha culture fusing Japanese-style techniques with the local climate has blossomed all at once over the past few years. Not as a substitute for Japanese-grown matcha but as a new option for lattes, sweets, and cooking, it offers a worthwhile choice for both souvenirs and yourself.<\/p>\n<p>For related local caf\u00e9 information and Vietnamese tea souvenirs in general, please also refer to the articles below.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/travel-guide\/vietnam-tea-souvenir\/\">[Latest] Crowd-pleasing Vietnamese tea souvenirs | A roundup of recommended brands and where to buy<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/cafe-shop\/miyaen\/\">The complete MIYAEN guide<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/cafe-shop\/atelier-matcha\/\">The complete Atelier Matcha guide<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/cafe-shop\/nagocha-matcha\/\">The complete Nagocha Matcha guide<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/vietnam-gift.com\/en\/souvenir\/lotus-tea\/\">The complete lotus tea guide<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>\u307e\u3068\u3081\uff1a\u62b9\u8336\u3068\u3044\u3046\u540d\u524d\u3088\u308a\u3001\u539f\u6750\u6599\u3068\u88fd\u6cd5\u3092\u898b\u308b<\/h2>\n<p>\u30d0\u30aa\u30ed\u30c3\u30af\u306f\u8336\u7523\u5730\u3068\u3057\u3066\u77e5\u3089\u308c\u3001Doi Dep\u3082\u73fe\u5730\u8336\u30d6\u30e9\u30f3\u30c9\u3068\u3057\u3066\u516c\u5f0f\u306b\u78ba\u8a8d\u3067\u304d\u307e\u3059\u3002\u305f\u3060\u3057\u3001\u7dd1\u8336\u7c89\u672b\u3068\u65e5\u672c\u5f0f\u62b9\u8336\u3001\u30e9\u30c6\u30df\u30c3\u30af\u30b9\u306f\u5225\u306e\u5546\u54c1\u3067\u3059\u3002\u5065\u5eb7\u52b9\u679c\u3084\u7b49\u7d1a\u540d\u306b\u5f15\u304b\u308c\u308b\u524d\u306b\u3001\u539f\u6750\u6599\u3001\u7523\u5730\u3001\u88fd\u6cd5\u3001\u7802\u7cd6\u3001\u5305\u88c5\u3092\u6bd4\u8f03\u3057\u3066\u304f\u3060\u3055\u3044\u3002<\/p>\n<p>\u30b9\u30c8\u30ec\u30fc\u30c8\u3067\u98f2\u3080\u306a\u3089\u5c11\u91cf\u3092\u8a66\u98f2\u3057\u3001\u30e9\u30c6\u3084\u88fd\u83d3\u306a\u3089\u7528\u9014\u306b\u5408\u3046\u7c89\u672b\u3092\u9078\u3076\u306e\u304c\u73fe\u5b9f\u7684\u3067\u3059\u3002\u9ad8\u6e29\u591a\u6e7f\u306e\u30d9\u30c8\u30ca\u30e0\u3067\u306f\u3001\u8cfc\u5165\u5f8c\u306e\u906e\u5149\u30fb\u5bc6\u5c01\u3068\u3001\u5e30\u56fd\u5f8c\u306e\u65e9\u3081\u306e\u6d88\u8cbb\u3082\u54c1\u8cea\u3092\u5de6\u53f3\u3057\u307e\u3059\u3002<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A resident gives a thorough rundown of Vietnam's fast-growing matcha market and Bao Loc-born Doi Dep.
