Extraordinary Coffee from Hawaii's Kona Island!

Like other parts of the Hawaiian Islands, Kona Island provides ideal climate conditions for coffee bean cultivation. However, the coffee beans produced in Kona are distinctive, earning a good reputation as "world-class coffee." This is likely due to Kona Island's rich volcanic black soil, which has moderate acidity, abundant mineral content, and appropriate moisture levels. Additionally, every afternoon, clouds drift over Kona Island to shield the sunlight, protecting the delicate coffee tree seedlings.

The Unique Characteristics of Kona Coffee

What makes Kona coffee special is that every Kona coffee bean is hand-selected and harvested to ensure only the highest quality coffee beans are used for coffee production. In fact, 100% pure Kona coffee is quite rare and sometimes difficult to find. The rarest Kona coffee beans are Peaberry (round, single-bean coffee from one cherry), which accounts for only 4-5% of the total annual Kona coffee bean production. The uniqueness of Peaberry coffee beans lies in the fact that each coffee cherry contains only one coffee bean, while other types of Kona coffee cherries typically contain two coffee beans.
