Free Coffee for Tall Women Promotion Comes Up Short
Nick Brown | December 14, 2012
A reportedly unsanctioned promotion from representatives of Gloria Jean’s Coffee in Vietnam that offered free drinks to women who met a height requirement naturally ended badly.
Vietnam’s state media reports say the promotion was playing off a government campaign to try to increase the average height of Vietnamese citizens. The coffee company, which is based in Australia and boasts retail coffee shops in 39 countries throughout the world, was offering free second drink refills to females who stood at least 1.65 meters (or approximately 5 feet, 6 inches) tall.
In a brief statement, Gloria Jean’s International said the promotion was not approved by the company: “This promotion did not reflect the values of our brand, as we welcome everyone into our coffee houses around the world,” it said.
According to an Associated Press report, the company killed the promotion only after receiving criticism on its Facebook page for it being offensive to most Vietnamese women (the average female <at the time> height for Vietnamese women is 5’1″.
Coffeeholic House Brings the Latest in Vietnamese Coffee to Seattle

Opening at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic’s first wave in Seattle’s Columbia City neighborhood, Coffeeholic House has been offering a welcome slice of contemporary Vietnamese coffee culture.
“Growing up in Saigon, also known as Ho Chi Minh City, I think this is the vibe that we’re trying to create — from the interior designs, the patterns in the store, to menu items, and a warm welcome,” Chen Dien, who founded Coffeeholic House along with partner Trang Cao, told DCN.
Within the 900-square-foot cafe, the young couple behind Coffeeholic House have created a menu of Vietnamese phin-brewed specialty drinks along with traditional espresso-based drinks, using specialty-grade Vietnamese arabica and robusta coffee sourced from Brooklyn, New York’s Nguyen Coffee Supply.
After working in coffee since their teenage years, Dien and Cao signed a lease on the Columbia City storefront in July of 2019. Following months of permitting, inspections and a meticulous buildout, the grand opening unfortunately coincided with the pandemic surge, and the shop opened with just takeout and curbside pickup.
“We have a lot of passion for running our own coffee shop,” said Dien. “We decided to not let the global pandemic discourage us… We just did what we had to do.”
Though Dien and Cao were the shop’s only two employees, they managed to stay open every day of the week through the early days of the pandemic before closing for only one day in mid June to join a silent march and hand out water and snacks to supporters of Black lives and racial justice.
Said Dien, “As a person of color, I understand the importance of fighting for equality.”
Back at the shop, Dien and Cao continue to offer a menu that includes espresso-based drinks alongside drinks made through traditional Vietnamese phin brewing devices.
“Our best-sellers are the ube latte and Bac Siu,” said Dien. There are also alternative drink options like a honey latte, a matcha latte, and blended drinks. The shop is also maintaining seasonal drink specials. Phin coffee drinks are crafted on customized black phin brewers that display Coffeeholic’s name on the top.
Though indoor seating is not yet possible, the interior design features hanging lamps made to look like Vietnamese silk lanterns, a painting of Vietnamese tropical birds and flowers, and black and white patterned paintings. And above the espresso bar is a small loft area with tropical plants and additional seating.
Even as the shop has seen a steady flow of foot traffic during the pandemic, the owners are naturally looking forward to a time when guests can more deeply take in their Vietnamese-inspired surroundings.
Said Dien, “Coffeeholic House is supposed to be a cafe where people can sit down, gather around the table, watch the coffee drip and enjoy the good vibes.”
Coffeeholic House is located at 3700 S. Hudson St. in Seattle’s Columbia City neighborhood.

Vietnams aging coffee plantations have been identified as an opportunity to improve yields thought better plan stock, and changed farming practices.
Drivers for improved production have come on top of global coffee prices falling 40% since 2010.
Lương Văn Tự, chairman of the Việt Nam Coffee and Cocoa Association, said the 2019-20 crop is likely to see output fall by 20 per cent.
There have been a number of Industry led programs to improve viability and profitability for coffee farmers. NESCAFE has a worldwide program designed to address falling production.
“So far, the project has distributed 36 million high-yield and diseases-resistant coffee saplings to farmers and helped rejuvenate over 36,000ha of aged coffee areas in the Central Highlands.
It has also provided training to over 230,000 coffee famers in best practices to improve bean quality and ensure sustainable farming and helped over 21,000 farmers achieve 4C international certification and increase their incomes by 30 per cent.
The project also helps protect the environment by reducing water use by 40 per cent and fertiliser and pesticide use by over 20 per cent.”
Will Mackereth, supply chain director at Nestlé Vietnam, said “Nestle has been promoting intercropping with other crops like pepper, avocado and durian. This means that they can be more resilient so that if the coffee prices are low as they are today they still have a good income from other product streams, but also that the cost of coffee production in Việt Nam is extremely efficient and extremely competitive.
VietNam News identifies Nguyễn Đức Huề, a farmer in Ia Hrung Commune, Ia Grai District, Gia Lai Province, who participated in NESCAFÉ Plan in 2014, saying his coffee productivity has increased sharply to five tonnes per hectare on average thanks intercropping his 4ha coffee plantation with avocado in 2016 and now harvests the fruits.
Tự said: “The productivity of coffee farms participating in the project is 4.5-5 tonnes per hectare, much higher than the country’s average of 2.6 tonnes, he said.
“The project contributes greatly to the coffee sector’s target of replacing 130,000 hectare of ageing coffee out of a total coffee area of 650,000 hectare.”
The competition attracted the participation of 90 outstanding coffee farmers from Đắk Lắk, Đắk Nông, Gia Lai and Lâm Đồng.
Mackereth said: “2020 will mark the 10th anniversary of NESCAFÉ Plan Vietnam and we expect many more such activities.”
Nestlé is the biggest buyer of coffee in Việt Nam, buying US$700 million worth a year. — VNS

Different types of coffee drinks
Van in the past has always had an aversion to egg coffee – I have tried it in Hanoi in winter and found it to be a warm comforting coffee for the cold weather. Also a great comfort food in those colder days in Australia
If you were asked do you want your coffee with egg most would say 'No!' unless they already know the secret and have tried and enjoyed the silky creamy blend.
I was sceptical as to its delights. I really preferred Café su da in Saigon where we spend most of our time in Vietnam. Iced coffee suiting the hot climate and making for an energising and refreshing breakfast cup. At home I have a double espresso to start my day as I don’t make time in the morning for a sit down cup of Vietnamese coffee and I like the hot espresso in the cooler months.
Van even years later makes all sorts of faces at me as I prepare this and I love the back stories I have read about the varying purported origins of this drink.
One story is the Viet Q wanted to emulate eggnog from Thanksgiving in USA and have it with coffee from their homeland– certainly plausible.
Interstingly internationally there are a number of countries with Egg coffee drinks but the Cà Phê Trứng - Vietnamese Egg coffee is the one with a great back story.
In the 1940's there was a shortage of fresh milk and chef Nguyen Van Giang invented the drink at Hanoi’s Sofitel Legend Metropole Hotel.
Wanting to create a creamy coffee with no milk was a challenge but there was easy access to eggs and Longevity milk.
His son son Nguyen Van Dao now runs the Giang Café and the trip down the alley is well worth the experience. There are photos on the wall of the family and orginal café and the dingy alley opens up to a two story building with courtyard.

The invented drink was so popular that Giang was able to set up his own Café Giang, now hidden off Nguyen Huan, Hoan Kiem in Hanoi. The menu has expanded to include chocolate, green bean, rum and chocolate and Matcha. The mix also includes butter and cheese and is a closely guarded secret.

Its available in hot and cold form just as with traditional Vietnamese coffee’s – here’s a little visual of café Giang and their egg coffee (cut and paste link to your browser)

I made our own recipe of this nutritious coffee drink and it gets the flavour tick of approval from Van.
I use the Avanti Café glasses to avoid the need for extra container, so if you want a set of 6 for $60 they are available on special order with ship for free.
Vietnamese Egg Coffee (Ca phe trung) al la Hugh
A delicious rich Vietnamese coffee topped with a coffee cream fluff made with whipped egg whites and combined with sweetened condensed milk egg yolk and an infusion of coffee.
Ingredients for 6
240 ml Vietnamese coffee brewed through a phin or 8 shots expresso (30 ml a shot)
3 whole eggs (separated)
6 tbs Longevity milk
1.5 teaspoon sugar preferably icing sugar or regular ok
Optional ingredient - Choccochino coffee powder
Special equipment
Chef's whisk and SS mixing bowl
Measuring jug 2 cup or larger
Small spatula
Avanti Café Twin Wall Glass 250 ml x 6
Espresso machine or Vietnamese coffee preparation equipment
Preparation
Either start making 240 ml Vietnamese coffee or wake up coffee machine for 8 shots
Separate eggs
Whisk egg whites with tsp sugar to make glossy meringue style mix
Fold in egg yolks and 6 table spoons longevity milk (due to thick gloopy texture of the milk I just get the spoon full and let most of it drip into mix then go again and only scrape mix of at last spoon - you use about 1/2 to 2/3 of the tin.
Mix in 2 shots of expresso or 60 ml Vietnamese coffee to the egg mix
Put one shot of Espresso in 6 glasses
Float egg coffee cream mix if not really stiff with spatula if you want better separation or as a variation just run the coffee through the egg mix in the glass and the coffee picks up on the creamy flavours and its not eggy at all – more like a tiramisu.
Optional
Dust on a Shake of Choccochino mix
This makes a great dessert style drink, it gets Van’s Flavour tick and looks great in the twin wall glass.
Have as a dinner dessert - you can use our low caffeing coffee for those sensitive to caffeine at the end of the day or its a great morning coffee drink
All of our coffees can be used to make this authentic Vietnamese style coffee
Coffee On

Vietnamese Independance Day
Vietnamese Independence or National Day (Vietnamese: Ngày Quốc Khánh) is a national holiday observed on 2 September, commemorating President Hồ Chí Minh reading the Declarations of independence of Vietnam at Ba Đình Square in Hanoi on 2 September 1945. It is the celebration of the culmination of the August Revolution associated with the abdication of Emperor Bảo Đại on 25 August 1945 ending the Nguyễn dynasty and the Establishment of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam.
As an aside Egg coffee had been going for about 5 years in Vietnam – invented due to the shortage of milk

Dear All
I have today received this mesage from Australia Post and it is indicative of problems across the whole of the courier network across Australia in these unusual times.
Viet-coffee has a policy of, where-ever possible, processing orders in the evening for putting with the courier the next day.
Some times we do better, however with pressures on all courier services as indicated in the below email sent to us by Australia Post, and from conversations with other couriers, where collections are either missed or rescheduled without notice. Some couriers companies currently are not able to meet demand. As a result please expect delayed shipment times.
As before, we continue to post shipping details of your order with the Paypal site with your payment record. Paypal says you will receive an email notfication of shipping.
Australia Post sends shipping notifications. Unfortunately some customers spam filters are too strong for these emails and they end up blocked or in spam or junk folders.
if you have not received notification of shipping please look to your spam or junk folder and we can update you if you have not received your shipping notificaiton.
Important update on our operations
Dear Hugh,
Over the last three weeks, Australia Post has experienced a significant increase in demand as Victorians have increased their online buying due to stage 4 lockdowns. So much so, that our parcel volumes in Victoria for August are up approximately 150% year-on-year compared to the national average of 90%.
At the same time, our business has been required to make additional adjustments in our processing and deliveries workforce to comply with the State Government's COVID safe restrictions.
From the very start of the pandemic, we have been clear that our strategy has been to protect our people, serve our customers and safeguard the business.
Safety of our people is not-negotiable and the current situation in Victoria, with massive volumes and severe congestion in our network, has us at a point of concern for the safety of our workforce.
To make sure we can still safely deliver for your customers, the following changes are immediately necessary:
No Weekend Collections in Victoria
There will be no collections in Victoria this weekend – the last pickup for the week will be Friday 28 August 2020 by 8pm and the next collection will be Monday 31 August 2020 commencing from 5am.
Victoria destined Parcels
With the massive demand and workforce capacity constraints, we foresee an additional 3 day delay for deliveries in Victoria. This is both within and into Victoria.
This means, any lodgements made in other States destined for Victoria may be held in those States for up to 3 business days to allow Victoria to work through the present demand.
Father's Day
For deliveries across Australia, we recommend at least the following lodgement dates for delivery before Father's Day on Sunday 6 September 2020:
- Parcel Post and letters – Friday 28 August 2020
- Express Post parcels – Monday 31 August 2020
For items lodged after these dates, whilst we will try our best, we do not expect to be able to meet delivery for Father's Day.
We will keep you updated regularly over the next few weeks and anticipate reviewing the situation in line with the easing of level 4 restrictions.
We appreciate the implications of these decisions and want to assure you we are doing our very best within these extremely challenging times.
I'm sure you can appreciate we cannot compromise the safety of our people and I appreciate your ongoing support as we work through this together.
Stay safe,
Gary Starr
Executive General Manager,
Business, Government and International

Hot competition for Coffee shop retail space in Vietnam continues unabated with 3 of the big coffee chains Trung Nguyen, Highlands Coffee and The Coffee House having their ambitious plans frustrated by challenges around retail space and Corona virus impacting on business.
Vinamilk has just announced that it will make a coffee chain, taking advantage of the system of 430 Vietnamese Dream Milk shops to sell coffee and captialising on their existing 430 "milk" cafes.
Coffee chains not afraid to go head to head
Here Highlands Coffee and The Coffee House are located opposite each other at Tran Khac Chan Roundabout. Photo: Phuc Minh.
Churning of coffee shops on prime locations is not uncommon now as new-comers fight it out with the old guard.
Trung Nguyen closed the top located store at Tran Khac Chan roundabout to be replaced by Highlands Coffee – the “big” owner of the many coffee shops today.
Thay Trung Nguyen, the ground of Highlands Coffee is now directly opposite to The Coffee House. The two shops are only a few feet away. Meanwhile, adjacent to The Coffee House is Cong Coffee.
Other new comes have unusual (for Western standards) names - Cheese Coffee has become popular with young people with 9 storers in HCM city. Its selection of Tea and coffee’s present very well. The Cheese coffee name more of a reference to cheese cake and coffee
