I hate to break the news to you, but I once worked for Starbucks and, for all of their faults, they do NOT purchase Vietnamese coffee, which is mostly robusta. Starbucks only purchases Arabic beans from places such as Colombia, Guatemala, Indonesia and (when we the consumer are lucky) Ethiopia, among others.

Arabic=Arabica. Time for me to make some more coffee. :-)
