Coffee Encyclopedia's unusual Kona Coffee

Like other parts of the Hawaiian islands, Kona provides ideal climatic conditions for the cultivation of coffee beans. However, the coffee beans produced by Kona are different and have gained a good reputation as "worldwide coffee". This is probably due to the fact that Kona Island is rich in volcanic black mud with moderate acidity, rich mineral content and suitable water content. And every afternoon, a cloud floats over the island of Kona to block out the sun to protect fragile coffee saplings.

What is special about Kona coffee is that each Kona coffee bean is hand-picked to ensure that only the best quality beans can be used in coffee production. In fact, 100% pure Kona coffee is rare and sometimes hard to find. The rarest Kona coffee beans are beads (round beans with a single pod), which account for only 4% and 5% of the annual output of Kona coffee beans. What is special about beaded coffee beans is that each coffee fruit contains only one coffee bean, while other types of Kona coffee fruits contain two coffee beans.

Kona coffee also has many characteristics that are different from other types of coffee. But one thing is certain: even if the bag says 100% pure Kona coffee, you won't really buy 100% pure Kona coffee. But when you buy Kona coffee from the Maui Coffee Company, you can rest assured that 100% of our Kona coffee is 100% pure Kona coffee.

Hawaiian Kona Coffee

Hawaiian Kona coffee beans have the most perfect appearance, its country is extremely full, and bright, is the most beautiful coffee beans in the world. The coffee is smooth and fragrant, with an attractive nutty flavor and a well-balanced acidity, as charming as the colorful colors of the island of Hawaii and a long finish.

The world-famous "Hawaiian Kona" is a pure and sour coffee bean.

Kona coffee is grown on the slopes of Mauna Roa volcano on the southwest coast of Hawaii. In terms of flavor, Kona coffee beans are closer to Central American coffee than Indonesian coffee. Its average quality is very high, carefully handled, medium texture, good sour taste, very rich flavor, and fresh Kona coffee is extremely fragrant. If you think your coffee is too thick, African coffee is too sour, Central and South American coffee is too rough, then "Kona" may be suitable for you. Kona is like a girl in the Hawaiian sunshine breeze, fresh and natural.

Kona coffee beans are average and neat in shape, with strong sour and sweet taste, moist and smooth taste. Because they grow on volcanoes and have high-density artificial farming, each bean can be said to be a spoiled "lady" with beautiful, plump and baby-like skin.

Although Hawaii is often affected by tornadoes, the climatic conditions are very suitable for the coffee industry. There is plenty of rain and sunshine, and there is no worry of frost. In addition, there is a strange natural phenomenon called "free shade". On most days, around 2 o'clock in the afternoon, white clouds appear in the sky, providing the necessary shade for the coffee trees. In fact, it is such superior natural conditions that make Arabica coffee in the Kona region produce more coffee than any other plantation in the world, and always maintain high quality, unique growth and climate environment to create a stronger coffee flavor.

But to the regret of coffee fans, only about 1400 hectares of coffee is produced. And because of Hawaii's high income and a large number of tourists, Kona coffee is so expensive that it is even sold as "Kona Blend" (no more than 5 per cent of Kona beans). In recent years, neighboring islands such as Maui, Kauai and Molokai have also begun to grow coffee commercially.

Kona coffee is indeed a treasure in the world and is not easy to find. The real Hawaiian Kona coffee has the sweetness of caramel, which makes people enjoy the unique pleasure and leads you slowly into the detached state of tasting coffee.
