KONA COFFEE PLANTATIONS

KONA COAST, HAWAII'S BIG ISLAND

100% pure Kona coffee is a rare commodity exclusively grown in north and south Kona. The high elevation, constant cloud coverage, and rich volcanic soil in the upland slopes of Kona and the small town of Holualoa create an ideal environment for harvesting this unique Hawaiian coffee bean.

There are roughly 600 coffee farms in Kona and many offer tours to the public. Visit thriving coffee orchards and learn about the meticulous harvesting process. Then explore the coffee mill and see how the beans are processed. As you finish your tour, sip a freshly brewed cup for yourself and experience the rich aroma and flavorful taste that makes 100% Kona coffee so highly valued.
