In 1813, a Spaniard first grew coffee in the ManoaValley Valley of Oahu, which is today the main campus of the University of Hawaii. In 1825, an English agronomist named John Wilkinson transplanted some coffee from Brazil to grow in the coffee garden of Chief Birch on the island of Oahu. Three years later, an American missionary named Samuel Riveland Rags brought the branches of the coffee tree from Birch Emirates Garden to Kona, a descendant of the Arabica coffee tree that first grew on the Ethiopian plateau. To this day, Kona Coffee still carries on its noble and ancient lineage.

The good quality of Kona coffee should be suitable for the right geographical location and climate. Coffee trees grow on the slopes of volcanoes, and their geographical location ensures the altitude needed for coffee to grow; the dark volcanic ash soil provides the necessary minerals for coffee.

This is probably due to the fact that Kona Island is rich in volcanic black mud with moderate acidity, rich mineral content and suitable water content. And every afternoon, a cloud floats over the island of Kona to block out the sun to protect fragile coffee saplings.

The climate is very suitable, the sun in the morning gently passes through the air full of water vapor, in the afternoon, the mountains will become more humid and foggy, and the white clouds surging in the air are natural umbrellas for coffee trees, and the evening will become sunny and cool.

Because of the suitable natural conditions, the average yield of Kona coffee is very high, reaching 2240 kg per hectare, while the yield of coffee in Latin America is only 600 kg to 900 kg per hectare.

Soil: fertile tropical Hawaiian volcanic soil that provides the dense nutrients of the Kona Coffee Tree.

Altitude: the appropriate altitude of 2100 to 3600 meters and the cool moonlight promote the fruit of Kona Coffee to ripen slowly and create an excellent taste with rich appearance and full moisture.

Rizhao: the warm tropical sun plays an important role in the reproduction of coffee trees. Hawaii provides the morning light that Kona Coffee needs.

Cloud cover: due to the rise of clouds at noon, the severe direct sunlight is ensured and stopped.

Rainfall: cloud cover brought enough Rain Water, so that after a morning sun coffee, eager to enjoy the afternoon Rain Water's moisturizing baptism.

Slope: a good slope makes Kona coffee absorb enough water in the soil without absorbing too much and affecting the flavor of the coffee.

Kona coffee has always been grown at home. At first, only men were allowed to work in the coffee garden, and later women joined in. This kind of family production of Hawaiians preferred to rely on the efforts of their families rather than hiring workers to work, so it was normal for Hawaiians to have eight or nine children at that time.

Since then, new immigrants from the Philippines, the United States and Europe have come to Hawaii to engage in the coffee industry. Over time, Hawaii has formed a social atmosphere that centers on family culture and is easy to absorb foreign cultures. and make it a major feature of Hawaii.
