Hawaii is the only coffee producing area located in developed countries, although the altitude is not high, but because of the special island climate, the quality of the coffee produced here is not low.

Coffee was first introduced to Hawaii in 1817 by Don Francisco de Paula Marin, the first Spanish consultant during the reign of King Kamehameha. But it was not planted until 1825 when Oahu Mayor Chie Boki introduced coffee from Brazil and successfully planted it in Manoa Valley, and coffee was grown all over the island.

Bourbon coffee was introduced to the Big Island around 1828 and began to be grown on a large scale on the island of Kauai in 1836, but it was wiped out by diseases and insect pests in 1858, and the only one who survived was the KONA producing area of the island.
