Hawaiian Cona beans

Kona Coffee trees grow on the windward slopes of Hawaii's Hualalai and Mauna Loa, which are rich in volcanic soil, coupled with cloudy weather in the afternoon, giving the coffee a unique flavor. It can blossom in the season after dry and winter, and farmers harvest it manually in autumn. after the process of removing pulp, sun, shelling and so on, the treatment plant grades according to the size and shape of coffee beans, while round beans are the highest and the quality is the best. The formation of round beans is due to abnormal pollination and mating of flowers, leaving only one seed in the fruit of coffee cherries (there should be two lentils). It is generally believed that the nutrients evenly distributed to the two lentils are now absorbed by only one lentil, making the aroma and flavor more concentrated and delicious, but the total harvest of the lentil accounts for only 5% to 10% of all acceptable, which is extremely precious. Second only to round beans, there are four higher-grade beans, such as Extra Fancy, Fancy, No.1 and Prime.
