FrontStreet Coffee - Hawaii Kona Bay View Extra Fancy Introduction

Hawaii's famous coffee is known as Kona coffee. Coffee trees are planted along the slopes of Mauna Loa and Hualalai volcanoes, with cultivation altitudes ranging from 800 to 2000 feet. Hawaii's special climate environment provides sunny and hot mornings, while clouds gather in the afternoon to provide natural shade. As Hawaii has a tropical island climate that is hot year-round, there is never any possibility of frost. In addition, Hawaii is not affected by pests and diseases. Therefore, the yield of coffee trees per square acre is the highest in the world. The coffee is graded by size, shape, and quantity of defects.

Kona coffee cultivation has always adopted a family-based model. Initially, only men were allowed to work in the coffee plantations, but later women also joined in. Hawaiians' family production approach prefers to rely on family efforts rather than hiring workers, which is why it was normal for Hawaiian families to have eight or nine children at that time. Later, new immigrants continuously came from the Philippines, the mainland United States, and Europe to engage in coffee cultivation in Hawaii. Over time, Hawaii developed a social atmosphere centered on family culture while being receptive to foreign cultures, which became one of Hawaii's distinctive features.
