How to Best Brew Hawaiian Kona Drip Bag Coffee and Does It Taste the Same as Pour-Over?

For more professional coffee knowledge exchanges and information about coffee beans, please follow Coffee Workshop (WeChat public account: cafe_style).

Generally, Hawaiian supermarkets typically offer dozens of varieties of Hawaiian Kona coffee beans labeled with the Kona name. However, most are not 100% Kona; some are 10% or 30% Kona, and most are flavored beans or powders (flavors include coconut, vanilla, Hawaiian beans, chocolate, Irish cream, etc. The powders are usually sold as coarse ground suitable for auto-drip brewing). Since I'm not a flavored coffee enthusiast, I won't introduce them here. I believe that if you want to drink flavored coffee, it's better to buy coffee syrups or use a small amount of liqueur for flavoring rather than purchasing flavored coffee beans.

These are typically the products available for purchase in department stores or supermarkets.

Additionally, you can also find premium 100% Kona coffee at Whole Foods Market, the organic food supermarket popular among the American middle class.
