My Copper Cow Review Is This Vietnamese Coffee Subscription Worth Trying?
Does this Vietnamese Coffee Subscription make sense?
If you’re a fan of Shark Tank, the reality show on ABC that invites budding entrepreneurs to pitch their business ideas to a group of blood-thirsty investors, you may have also found The Pitch, a podcast from Gimlet Media with a similar concept. Copper Cow is a podcast that I love. The founder Debbie Wei Mullin first introduced Copper Cow to me in 2019. Copper Cow’s idea is clever: Vietnamese pour-over coffee, which doesn’t require any additional equipment. No ceramic dripper, no metal Phin filter, no Chemex. Hot water, a cup and a coffee mug are all you need.
The idea stuck with me, so when Copper Cow reached out to see if we’d be interested in reviewing their coffee, I was excited. Could the creative packaging work? Would it be easy to use? Could it deliver great coffee every time?

Deliveries to My Copper Cow
Vietnamese Coffee is a hot topic in my home right now. Nguyen Coffee Supply was recently reviewed and I have been enjoying the occasional cup of Vietnamese coffee made with one of the Phin filter that arrived in my shipment. Copper Cow created an alternative way of preparing coffee that produces a concentrated, rich cup. Copper Cow’s invention isn’t difficult to make coffee with a Phin. But I was impressed by their innovation and wanted to find out how it would perform for me.
The “Classic Subscription”, which is available from, works well. The box contained 20 black coffee packets, 20 creamers and two samples of flavored coffees.
I received a flyer introducing the flavored coffee in my box, salted caramel.
Copper Cow’s standard coffee blend is 70% Robusta, 30% Arabica beans. American roasters rarely use Robusta coffee beans, though they are highly valued in Vietnam due to their rich flavor and high amount of caffeine. This coffee blend is already ground and ready for use with a pour-over filter. You will find instructions to prepare the coffee on the back. Here’s a description of the coffee from Copper Cow:
Although it may seem surprising that this is “Just Black”, you will be surprised to learn how rich and complex the coffee really is. You can say it’s bold and blunt, straight to the point, and impossibly smooth. When left on its own, the black coffee is able to show off all the flavorings in our Vietnamese blend. This includes the mocha and nut undertones as well as the bite that keeps it interesting.
Sweetened condensed is the traditional way of serving Vietnamese coffee. The “Classic Subscription”, which sends California sweetened milk packets, will provide sweetened condensed water pre-portioned. The product contains only milk, sugar, and no preservatives. A serving of this product contains around 100 calories.
Samples of salted caramel coffee were included in this shipment. This is the description.
Portable Vietnamese-Pour Over Coffee
Review and photos by Hailey Hirst Morning coffee is a ritual, a routine. The comfort and caffeine rush of coffee can be a great way to kick start a morning or boost your energy levels in the afternoon. That’s why we feel the need to have that cup with us whenever we go outside.
Anna Brones, in an interview on Best Served Wild, stated that food is better when you are in a picturesque setting.
This is also true of coffee. The perfect cup of coffee can be a matter of debate. We have many options, from cowboy coffee that is brewed right in the ground to instant coffee and tea-bag coffee packets.
Copper Cow Coffee invited us to taste their Vietnamese coffee.
The first cup was taken on a Banff National Park trail, followed by another two cups while we sat on Oahu beaches at sunrise. This is not only for backpacking, but it’s great to have in your pack with you.
Takeaways:
It’s delicious coffee. Another box was purchased and I will gift it to outdoor enthusiasts this Christmas. The experience of making pour-over coffee that tastes good and can be enjoyed at places like a beach at sunrise or camp in the backcountry, is worth a little bit more cost and pack weight sometimes. This is a luxury you can have out in the wilderness.
You can’t get coffee without experiencing it. Nichole Johnson put it this way: “Coffee’s more than a coffee.” It is an invitation to life, disguised as a cup of warm liquid. “Coffee is not just a loud wake-up call. It is also a friendly reminder to be present.
Copper Cow Coffee is a woman and minority-owned and operated company founded in 2016 by Vietnamese-Californian Debbie Mullin. Debbie is passionate about food and has worked for the World Bank as a sustainable development officer. She brings to America the finest quality, ethically sourced Vietnamese coffee. It’s easy to make specialty coffee at home with the Portable Pour Over and one cup California Sweetened Condensed Milk.
Editor’s note: Hailey received the coffee free of charge from Copper Cow to review. These are her honest thoughts and opinions on the coffee.

Copper Cow Coffee Review
Alyson Lewis 2 year ago in product review Report Story Vietnamese Coffee isn’t new. What makes Copper Cow special is their ability to make smooth, travel-friendly coffees that don’t compromise on quality.
Each day seems to bring new coffee varieties, some with more caffeine or smoother tasting. Copper Cow makes a great Vietnamese coffee. Although Vietnamese coffee is not new. Vietnamese coffee is my absolute favorite. Although I need to watch my milk intake, I still love Vietnamese coffee. I tried all kinds of coffees as I went along my coffee adventure. Different brewing methods have different tastes and I am able to discern the difference between good and bad coffee. This does not mean that I won’t continue to drink coffee. It means I learn something new about it.
Vietnamese coffee can be bought at local shops. Then, I choose the food that suits my mood. I always get grilled chicken and basil rolls, which I think about at least once every day of my life, because they’re a perfect food. The reason I limit my order to two is that I do not want to eat more than the recommended amount (4-6). My ability to resist certain food or drink is best managed this way. I have to pace myself, and wait until the urge is so uncontrollable that my willpower has crumbled and I can’t fucking stand it anymore. This is why I talk about the damn rolls. Probably because I haven’t had them in a week and a half, and I’m starving for them.
Copper Cow Coffee was a slick ad I found on Instagram. I wanted to order the rolls immediately. I didn’t order food but started browsing the Copper Cow website. Before I try something new, I do my research. Since the coffee is packaged, I want to make sure I’m happy with my choice. Debbie Wei is the founder of this brand. Debbie studied sustainability while in college. Her goal was to produce a Vietnamese cup-of-joe that doesn’t sacrifice quality nor add to waste. The coffee is 70% Robusta and 30% Arabica, both grown in Vietnam. This method has been chosen for its efficiency. A pour over coffee brews consistently smoother and more flavorful beans every time. Copper Cow’s coffee can be packed in single packets, making it easy to take with you. You can also choose from a variety of flavors. The Classic Pack was my choice, however, there are many other flavors available, including Churro Latte and Cardamom Latte. The bundle options are available, as is the vegan/dairy-free option. To help you decide which flavor is best for you, the site offers a quiz.
The process for how to make the coffee is straightforward as hell. Although it may seem daunting, all that is required to make the coffee is place the filter into a mug, and then pour hot water over the filter. It’s delicious. The flavor is smooth, and it doesn’t remind me of any travel-friendly or portable coffee I’ve ever had before. It’s not like those shitty packets of coffee in hotel rooms that taste like it’s from a gas station no matter how you slice or dice it. The coffee has been crafted with quality in mind and care. It comes with a perfect creamer. It is very sweet, which is to be expected, but it’s only made of milk and sugar. It doesn’t contain any unidentifiable sweeteners or ingredients, so it can be used as-is.
Aside from using the traditional pour over method, there are other ways to enjoy Copper Cow Coffee . I want to try using the coffee to make cold brew or an iced coffee (instructions for how to do this are included on the box!!). Copper Cow’s entire range of flavors is amazing and I look forward to exploring more. It is highly recommended and I give it a rating of 10/10.
Copper Cow Coffee – Where Are They Sourced?
Copper Cow Coffee is a premium specialty Vietnamese Coffee Company based in Los Angeles. CCC supports sustainable agriculture in Vietnam and works to make specialty Vietnamese coffee more accessible in the US through modern design, innovative packaging, as well as socially and environmentally-conscious sourcing.
How Much Caffeine Is In A Cup Of Copper Cow Coffee?
Copper Cow Coffee contains between 238-272 mg caffeine in an 8-ounce cup. However, the amount can vary depending on flavor. It’s 2-3x the caffeine of a standard cup at your coffee shop. Decaf coffee only contains 5mg caffeine.
Are Copper Cows Compostable?
Copper Cow Coffee’s unique single-use filter is reminiscent of the Vietnamese Phin. It comes prefilled with coffee grounds, and can be fully composted, which makes it easy to transport and use on the go.
Vietnamese coffee is now a popular choice
Vietnamese coffee is typically brewed with a phin, an aluminum filter that sits on top of a cup and drips the coffee directly into that cup. The process is very similar to a pour-over, though pour-over is much more laborious. This is why this OXO Pour-Over Espresso Coffee Set was created. December 23, 2019
