Hawaii has long been known to many people as a travel paradise. This group of 132 islands may be an ornament accidentally left by the Creator in the Pacific Ocean, and the Big Island is the brightest and largest pearl on this ornament. Here once came King Kamehameha, the unifier of the Hawaiian dynasty, Xiyi, the world's wettest city, the magnificent volcanic eruption can be seen in the volcanic park, and here, it is also the hometown of Kona Coffee, where the meteor landed on the coffee belt.

Kona coffee is distributed in the south and north of the Kona region, where several active volcanoes, such as Monakoya, are located in the western part of the island. The coffee belt stretches about 30 kilometers from north to south, and it is distributed in an area of 750 meters above sea level.

M. on most sunny days, providing the necessary shade for coffee growth. make coffee beans fuller and more rich in flavor, which provide unique conditions for the growth of coffee, coupled with the careful management of local coffee farmers Make Kona coffee a rare boutique-the demand for coffee has increased in recent years, and Kona's existing land and planting scale are limited, so it has become a rare boutique.

Friends who have drunk Kona Coffee may feel the same way: Kona Coffee does not bring us a very strong and personalized taste, it is more often presented in the cup in a gentle and bright manner, extremely soft, as soft as the Pacific summer sea breeze, the entrance is first of all a slight acidity, more is a kind of balanced sweet and sour in the mouth of the perfect harmony, after drinking will have the sweet and sweet of syrup reverberate vaguely. Such coffee, like a meteor flash, but also like a meteor can be encountered but can not be asked for.

Coffee was first brought to Honolulu by the Spanish translator of Emperor Kamehameha in 1913, and was brought to Oahu by British warships in 1825. Around 1828, Samuel, an American missionary, brought the branches of the coffee tree to the Kona region. Coffee was first grown by locals and Chinese, and later Japanese and Filipino immigrants also began to grow it, after a century of ups and downs in the coffee market. Now most of the Kona coffee belongs to the Camerhameha Bishop School Manor, which is produced by more than 600 coffee farmers, all of which are carefully managed, hand-picked and scientifically processed.
