Introduction of origin

Kona coffee beans, which are grown in the Kona region of Hawaii, are a rare species that can only be grown on volcanic slopes.

Due to the declining production of coffee beans, the price is close to that of Blue Mountain Coffee. The strip of Kona coast produces the best coffee in the world, and the output is among the highest in the world. Kona can still produce 2 million pounds of coffee beans a year on less than 2600 acres of coffee land.
