"Hawaiian Coffee", early due to the pursuit of the Japanese, due to the successful marketing of Kona on the island of Hawaii (commonly known as Big Island), most consumers mistook Kona for Hawaiian coffee. In fact, the so-called Kona coffee refers to 100% coffee produced in Kona producing areas. (there is also 10%Kona coffee that mixes coffee beans from 10%Kona producing areas with 90% coffee beans from other regions.)

As a matter of fact, under the third wave of the boutique coffee revolution, coffee farms on various Hawaiian islands have come out of the shadow of "Kona only" one after another, making their own way in the global market.

Hawaii began to grow coffee in the 18th century. Most of the coffee is grown on the island of Kauai and the Big Island of Hawaii, with ideal climate and soil, extremely careful processing, and perfect appearance of coffee beans, but the limited planting area and high wages in the United States are all the reasons for the high price of Kona beans, but the perfect, clean and unique tropical fruit aroma of Kona coffee can not be replaced by other coffee.

Coffee experts often compare the Kona coffee produced in Hawaii with the Blue Mountain coffee produced in Jamaica, both have mild and suitable acidity and the sweetness of delicate fruits, but the strict quality control of Kona coffee makes Kona coffee without bad evaluation to maintain a high level of quality, unlike the occasional poor evaluation murmur of Blue Mountain coffee.

At present, the common Hawaiian coffee on the market, in addition to the kona district of the Big Island, including Maui, Cafu Island, and lovely Island, all have coffee estates on display. The common Hawaiian coffee includes different varieties such as Typica, Mocca and Catuai.

However, Kona Coffee is still one of the most expensive coffee on the market, and according to Hawaiian Agriculture Department regulations, coffee can only be called Kona Coffee on the slopes of Hualalai and Mauna Loa in Big Island, Kona. Hawaiian sunny mornings, cloudy and rainy afternoons, light breezes and mild nights, coupled with mineral-rich volcanic soil, give it a special flavor.

Kona Coffee is divided into two categories: Type I (flat bean) and Type II round bean (Peaberry).

According to the size, water content and purity of bean seeds, Type 1 is divided into 'Kona Extra Fancy',' Kona Fancy', 'Kona Number 1,' Kona Select', and 'Kona Prime'; Type II Kona coffee are divided into' Peaberry Number 1 'and' Peaberry Prime';, and a lower grade of 'Number 3' is not called Kona Coffee.

Kona Coffee's biggest threat in recent years comes from pests caused by the coffee pulp borer (Hypothenemus hampei). In late November 2010, the Hawaiian Department of Agriculture announced that all raw beans must be fumigated with methane bromide or another six-step procedure before leaving the island.

I'm afraid there will be huge fluctuations in the output and price of coffee in Kona producing areas in the future. Because of this, coffee farmers in lovely Island, Cafu Island and Maui Island have gradually emerged in the past two years.

Hawaiian coffee is produced every year from July, August to January, and a coffee tree produces no more than a pound of fruit. It's very rare.

The Hawaiian coffee on Qianjie is from KONA, and I like the special flavor of KONA coffee very much.

The recommended brewing parameters of Qianjie coffee:
