The Legendee Gold is Trung Nguyen's flagship coffee as served in over 1200 coffee shops across SE Asia. Note in the images that we are now beginning to ship the new, boxed package (silver motif) so you might receive either package in the transition. New images show the outer box and inner package of coffee.This is a natural enzymatic simulation of rare and expensive Kopi Luwak coffee, with traditional SE Asian roast style. Arabica, high-altitude Robusta, and Excelsa varietals. Visitors to SE Asia see this coffee proudly displayed in Trung Nguyen shops and available as an "upgrade" to the usual house Cafe Sua Da Vietnamese coffee (iced or hot) In October 2012 Trung Nguyen reverted to the original name of this coffee, "Creative 8". Trung Nguyen became famous initially with 9 named coffees in the Creative Coffee series. They have recently gone back to this naming convention, but the coffees are the same, only the names have changed. NOTE: We are the only vendor who ships the product as shown in the picture, with the color card enclosed that explains the history and legend behind this unique coffee. Makes an excellent gift! Review: Oh, my GOODness! - With this super coffee and my new phin filter, today I made my first Vietnamese-style 16 oz. cup of iced coffee with a slight modification. I had made it in the past with my usual, good, expensive, ground coffee and my regular coffee maker, and it made a very good drink, But. This particular brand of ground coffee, also expensive, made a much smoother drink. To steal the title of a popular novel, this drink is "as good as gold." Here is my recipe: With this coffee, I brewed a single, 8 ounce cup of coffee, and while the brew was still hot I added two tablespoons of sweetened condensed milk and a tablespoon of thick chocolate syrup. I stirred the whole brew then with a long iced tea spoon and topped all with whole milk. By then the drink was cold, and I did not add ice cubes. If it had not been cold enough, I would have placed the brew in the fridge for about half an hour. For the drinking glass, I use a tall, smoothie-drinking glass from the very beginning to my final gulps. I limit myself to only one of these a day, and it gives me a wonderful energy boost. Of course, if you do not like the mocha flavor, just eliminate the chocolate syrup. Review: The most amazing coffee I ever tried!! - After watching "The bucket list", I was intrigued about Kopi Luwak coffee. After some research, the price seemed to be (way) out of my budget. So I totally forgot about getting a bag, or even a cup of such delicacy (that comes from the end of digestive tract of a civet...). After a while, I found here in desertcart this cheaper option to kopi luwak. I read in detail, and the alternate process made sense. So I risked $18.95 and purchased this item. My taste buds where crazy about its well-balanced flavor, acidity and body. I would like to get this in whole beans, because pre-ground coffee is not my thing... and also maybe a bigger bag (2.2lbs). Even so, the brick is vacuum packed within a thick metalized plastic bag.

Decent coffee, but overpriced
I was super excited to try this coffee, from all the amazing reviews. Though it does taste good, it's nowhere near the best coffee I've had. The price is almost 4x the cost of other similar coffees you'll find out there. At least I've tried it.

Exceptional, but hard to say it's worth the astronomical price.
Exceptional coffee. We bought it for a special occasion and loved it. However, I'm really not enough of a connoisseur to pay five times as much as specialty coffee roasts that are available locally.

Two Stars
Kopi Luwak is far superior for taste. Very disappointed.

This is Not Civit Cat poop coffee, this is normally grown coffee!
This is NOT CIVIT CAT poop coffee as some has alleged. That coffee comes from Indonesia, so please ignore the comments that make that claim. Yes, the animals are abused, but they are not in Vietnam. Ignorant people should NOT post their reviews. Okay, as far as the coffee goes, it is very delicious, it is a wonderful treat to have one of these cups of coffee. Where I have to give them a “one star” is the cost. It may cost $24, however, with shipping, I ended up paying about $35. So be aware of that before you order. The coffee is VERY good, the total cost, not so much!

What a find!
Being a Vietnam Era Veteran, I was curious as to what coffe comes from Vietnam. This company is unique in that it grows all four varieties of coffee plants in the world and uses them in their blends. The ultimate in quality control. The results are delicious. This blend is the most expensive offered through Amazon, but costs a fraction of the coffee it emulates, the civet coffee that comes from SE Asia, costs thousands of dollars, and is supposed to be the supreme tasting coffee. Trung Nguyen Legendee Gold Coffee duplicates that taste for about $20. It is smooth and tastes like coffee and chocolate. I love it! All of their blends are good.
