Vietnam :) Finally, Vietnam is mentioned in 6 minute English.
@Neil: You pronounce "Vietnam" exactly and lovely
I love this program so much
Yeah. That is the true. I heard the answer Vietnam 🇻🇳 too
I guessed the answer Vietnam too though I didn't know exactly :)
Very
important
Right... we're really proud of our Vietnam♡♡
hi :3
I am a Vietnamese. It is so proud to hear my country name in here :)
Oh, this is beautiful. I am from Palestine, and we are studying history about Vietnam and the Vietnamese resistance. This is wonderful
I was delighted to hear “ Vietnam” my country in your video today. I am so proud that our country is the second largest producer of coffee. Actually I also love the smell/ aroma of coffee, it is the key thing when I drink coffee. Whenever the smell hits me, my mouth begins to water. :D
Thanks for your lovely video, stay safe in the pandemic.
As a Vietnamese and a coffee lover, I thrill to bits when hearing about Vietnam in this video, you pronounce Vietnam very smoothly and Vietnam also has a great reputation for planting and exporting coffee to many countries in the world, so we are really proud of it. Moreover, not only useful and educational all the programmes are, but also I can enhance my English skills by watching these videos everyday. I am really thankful for that ❤️
Thank you BBC... thanks to your videos I can improve my English skills
Hi there^^ I'm Vietnamese. At mid of COVID-19 pandemic, my country is having a very good epidemic control with zero death, 268 cases, 205 recoveries. So proud! Stay healthy, stay calm, and be careful for all. My planet will be fine again

As a Colombian and also a coffee lover I'm really amazed to hear this 6 minute English's chapter.
My thoughts: the ability to perceive the smell of coffee is a much an importat part of the experience as drinking it. That's why, using a paper lid you've got from coffee shops chains is weird because they get rid the smell of it, which is something vital.
Thank you BBC learning English.
Vital means very Important.
No one should avoid the vital rule.
Baffles- confusing, don't understand something.
Some question pattern of ielts baffle me mesometimes.
Hello !!! Vietnam is the second biggest producer coffee in the world. Welcome you all go to my country to have a good experience coffee. Welcome
Yes, that's really proud
Hello buddy, I'm from Brazil, nice to meet you. I'd like to visit your country and try your coffee.

(We love coffee here too. And sometimes it comes from ... Brazil! 😉☕ ! )
Me too
Hi ! I'm from Brasil ! I love coffee! The smell, the flavor, everything made with coffee ! I love this program ! Thank you so much !
Drinking coffee and learning English - what a great combination!
Wake up and smell the coffee
Is your cup half full or empty?
When we talk, you say it softly
But I love it when you're awfully quiet
Very talented! thanks for sharing!
It's a relaxing conversation about a delicious theme. I really enjoy learning English like that. Thank you very much for your time.
The taste sometimes disappoints but the smell never does. I don't have it often but I often visit coffee shops to feel its smell.
Neil, the way you pronounce Vietnam is perfect!
I was surprised when I've heard a Vietnam word out of nowhere. Thanks for mentioning us. That is hitting nail on the head. There are such astronomical chains of coffee shops
Many thanks to your lesson 🥰 I supprised when I heard ‘Viet nam’ - feeling proud of my country
"Coffee Neil, it's coffee!" I can't stop laughing 😂
Neil: Hello. Welcome to 6 Minute English, I'm Neil.
Catherine: And I'm Catherine.
Neil: Catherine, I'm going to start this
programme with a quick test, just for you.
Catherine: Ooo, I love tests!
Neil: Complete this phrase: Wake up and
smell the...
Catherine: Coffee Neil! It's coffee. I have
to say, I love coffee, it's great.
Neil: OK, so do you drink much?
Catherine: Well, just a couple of cups, you
know.
Neil: Every day?
Catherine: No, no, every hour! I love coffee,
don't you like coffee, Neil?
Neil: I do but maybe not as much as you!
What's the best thing about it?
Catherine: It's the smell. It's got to be the
smell.
You know, when you open the packet, it's
great, isn't it?
Neil: Yes, but it never quite tastes as good
as it smells, does it?
Catherine: Well no, not really. It's always a
bit disappointing. I live in hope, another
cup, I think it will be better. I might change
brands actually and try a different one.
Neil: OK, you've had quite a lot of coffee
today, haven't you?
Catherine: Just the usual six cups.
Neil: Well, our topic today is the smell of
coffee and coffee is also the subject of
today's question. The world's biggest
producer of coffee is ...
Catherine: Brazil! Brazil!
Neil: Yes, yes, but that's not the question. The
question is, Brazil is the biggest coffee
producer, which is the second largest
coffee producing country? Is it:
a: Colombia, b: Vietnam, c: Ethiopia
Catherine: Right, so it's not Brazil but I bet
it's another South American country, so I'm
going to go for Columbia. Columbia, is
that right?
Neil: We'll have the answer later in the
programme but which time, maybe the
caffeine will have left your body, Catherine.
Tim Hayward is a coffee shop owner. He
appeared in the BBC Radio 4 programme
The Kitchen Cabinet. How important does
he say the smell of coffee is?
It's absolutely vital, it's the key thing.
When you walk in to the coffee shop in
the morning and that smell hits you,
you're getting physiological responses.
Neil: So how important is it?
Catherine: I'm feeling a bit calmer now.
Tim Hayward says the smell of coffee is
vital. That means it's very important, it's
perhaps the most important thing. And he
backs this up by saying that it's the key
thing. Something that's key is
essential, it's really important.
Neil: And he says that when you
experience the smell,
when the smell hits you, you get a
physiological response. This phrase
means your body has a reaction to the
smell of coffee. Perhaps your mouth
begins to water in anticipation.
Catherine, when you get a coffee, do you
normally have it there or take it away?
Catherine: Well, I usually take it away,
although if I'm feeling really in need of a
coffee hit, I might have one there and then
get another one and take with me.
Neil: Can you describe the container that you
are given when you have a coffee to go?
Catherine: Yes, it's in a tall paper cup with a lid.
And the lid has a hole in it so that I can
drink that lovely coffee.
Neil: Don't you think that's a problem? I
mean, we know how important the smell
is, so what is the effect of the lid on that
experience?
Catherine: The effect of the lid?
Neil: Yes. Well here's Tim Hayward again
talking about coffee being served with lids.
What baffles me is that how many of the
large coffee chains actually sell a product
in a cup that removes the smell. So you
walk into the coffee shop, you get the
smell, but when you actually take the
drink out you are drinking it from
something that is designed to deliver
the hot liquid directly past your tongue
but stop any smell coming up to your
nose. That's just weird.
Neil: So what is it he's describing there?
Catherine: I see, yes, He's talking
about the big coffee chains. A chain is a
company that has lots of its stores in
towns and cities sometimes
around the world. I think we can all think
of a few well-known coffee chains.
And he says that by putting a lid on take away
cups, you're actually blocking the smell -
that smell that is really important to the
coffee experience.
Neil: Yes, and he says that he finds that
weird, which is a way of saying he finds it
unusual, thinks it's strange, odd. So much
so that he says it baffles him. If you are
baffled by something, you find it
confusing, you can't really understand it.
Here's Tim Hayward again.
What baffles me is how many of the
large coffee chains actually sell a product
in a cup that removes the smell. So you
walk into the coffee shop, you get the
smell, but when you actually take the
drink out you are drinking it from
something that is designed to deliver
the hot liquid directly past your tongue
but stop any smell coming up to your
nose. That's just weird.
Neil: That was coffee shop owner Tim
Hayward. Right, before we have another
cup of this week's vocabulary, let's get the
answer to the question. After Brazil, which
country produces most coffee? Is it:
a: Colombia, b: Vietnam, c: Ethiopia
Catherine, you said?
Catherine: I said it was a: Colombia.
Neil: Ah, sorry, no extra coffee for you
today! The answer is Vietnam. And now
on to the vocabulary we looked at.
Take it away Catherine.
Catherine: So the first word was vital,
which is an adjective that means very
important. And another word with a very
similar meaning was key, meaning essential.
Neil: Next we had the phrase
physiological responses. Physiological
refers to what our bodies do and a
response is a reaction. So a physiological
response is a reaction your body has to
something, like the smell of coffee.
Catherine: Something that baffles you,
confuses you, you don't understand it.
Neil: You might find something that
baffles you to be weird. This adjective
means unusual or strange.
Catherine: And finally, a chain is a group
of shops from the same company with
the same name.
Neil: Well that is the end of our programe.

Facebook, Twitter, RUclips and our App

See you soon, bye.
Catherine: Bye! Fancy a coffee?
Neil: I think you've had too much!
Thank you a lot!
Thank you for bringing this topic up I'm addicted to the smell of coffee even more than coffee itself! lol
it relieves stress 😀😍
Hi Rama Coutlabi
! Does the smell of coffee remind you of anything in particular?
I’m addicted to ☕️ and every morning I have to drink at least one cup to energize myself in order to increase productivities at work for entire day. In the winter, hot coffee or tea is the best choice for those living in the colder places. Love it!!

Neil
Hello. Welcome to 6 Minute English, I'm Neil.
Catherine
And I'm Catherine.
Neil
Catherine, I'm going to start this programme with a quick test, just for you.
Catherine
Ooo, I love tests!
Neil
Complete this phrase: Wake up and smell the...
Catherine
Coffee Neil! It's coffee. I have to say, I love coffee, it's great.
Neil
OK, so do you drink much?
Catherine
Well, just a couple of cups, you know.
Neil
Every day?
Catherine
No, every hour! I love coffee, don't you like coffee, Neil?
Neil
I do but maybe not as much as you! What's the best thing about it?
Catherine
It's the smell. It's got to be the smell. You know, when you open the packet, it's great, isn't it?

Yes, but it never quite tastes as good as it smells, does it?
Catherine
Well no, not really. It's always a little disappointing. I live in hope, another cup, I think it will be better. I might change brands actually and try a different one.
Neil
OK, you've had quite a lot of coffee today, haven't you!
Catherine
Just the usual six cups.
Neil
Well, our topic today is the smell of coffee and coffee is also the subject of today's question. The world's biggest producer of coffee is...
Catherine
Brazil! Brazil!
Neil
Yes, but that's not the question. The question is, Brazil is the biggest coffee producer, which is the second largest coffee producing country? Is it:
a: Colombia
b: Vietnam
c: Ethiopia
Catherine
Right, so it's not Brazil but I bet it's another South American country, so I'm going to go for Columbia. Columbia, is that right?
Neil

That was coffee shop owner Tim Hayward. Right before we have another cup of this week's vocabulary, let's get the answer to the question. After Brazil, which country produces most coffee? Is it:
a: Colombia
b: Vietnam
c: Ethiopia
Catherine, you said?
Catherine
I said it was a: Colombia.
Neil
Ah, sorry, no extra coffee for you today! The answer is Vietnam. And now on to the vocabulary we looked at. Take it away Catherine.
Catherine
So the first word was vital, which is an adjective that means very important. And another word with a very similar meaning was key, meaning essential.
Neil
Next we had the phrase physiological responses. Physiological refers to what our bodies do and a response is a reaction.So a physiological response is a reaction your body has to something, like the smell of coffee.
Catherine
Something that baffles you, confuses you, you don't understand it.
Neil
You might find something that baffles you to be weird. This adjective means unusual or strange.
Catherine
And finally, a chain is a group of shops from the same company with the same name.
Very good. Really laudable. It's helpful for both of learning vocabulary n listening practice.
this lesson is really interesting to learn English I absolutely validate
from Vietnam with love
Try Vietnamese coffee, you will never forget it, proud to be a Vietnamese
What a lovely program!
Oh I love Catherine when she answered Brazil :3

Just to letting you know, Colombia produces the softest coffee in the world, characteristic that makes this Colombian coffee the perfect drink with the best balance ever between smell and flavor. Blessings from Colombia!

Hello Neil and Catherine. Thanks so much for your lovely and useful lesson. One more additional word I have learn today - to baffle. The rest are known to me.
