Why does a tea-drinking Asia now run on coffee? ☕ Coffee itself reached Vietnam in 1857 with a French Catholic priest. Today Vietnam is the world's second-largest producer after Brazil, and the largest grower of robusta, which makes up about 95% of its crop. Asia is still the home of tea, yet coffee is the faster-growing drink there.
