A brief introduction to the Flavor description treatment of Hawaiian Coffee Bean Grinding Calibration Variety and its producing area

In 1813, a Spaniard first grew coffee in the ManoaValley Valley of Oahu, which is today the main campus of the University of Hawaii. In 1825, an English agronomist named John Wilkinson transplanted some coffee from Brazil to grow in the coffee garden of Chief Birch on the island of Oahu. Three years later, an American missionary named Samuel Riveland Rags brought the branches of the coffee tree from Birch Emirates Garden to Kona, a descendant of the Arabica coffee tree that first grew on the Ethiopian plateau. To this day, Kona Coffee still carries on its noble and ancient lineage. Kona coffee has been grown in Kona since the early 19th century, and it has never been interrupted, and only the coffee produced here can be called "Hawaiian Kona". The raw beans of Hawaiian Kona Coffee are usually 100 packages of individual coffee beans. Kona coffee beans are also often used to make mixed coffee along with coffee beans from other parts of the world, and mixed beans of Kona coffee beans and other beans are marked with "Kona mixed beans (KonaBlend)" on the package. Unfortunately, the content of Kona beans in this mixed bean may be very low, and the minimum content of Kona beans in Hawaii that can use the "Kona" label is only 10%. So, if you're not in Kona in Hawaii, it's hard to have 100% Kona coffee.

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. For example, 560 kilograms of coffee per hectare are produced in Latin America and 2240 kilograms per hectare in Kona.

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 "konablend" (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.

Hawaii's coffee industry has to compete with the expanding tourism industry. Most coffee is grown on the slopes of MaunaLoa. Mauna Loa was originally a volcano located in the western part of the Kona region on the island of Hawaii. The coffee producing area is about 30 kilometers long and its growing areas are mainly concentrated in the north and south of the area. Coffee trees are planted in relatively desolate areas, but their soil is fertile and contains volcanic ash. Although it takes a lot of physical labor to start planting and it is difficult to manage, it is comforting that Kona's coffee trees (at least those growing above 90 meters above sea level) do not seem to be affected by any diseases and insect pests.

The excellent quality of Kona coffee benefits from the suitable geographical location and climate. Coffee trees grow on the slopes of volcanoes, and their geographical location ensures the altitude needed for coffee growth; the dark volcanic ash soil provides the minerals needed for coffee growth. The climatic conditions are very suitable. In the morning, the sun gently passes through the air full of water vapor. In the afternoon, the mountains will become more humid and foggy, and the white clouds surging in the air are natural umbrellas for coffee trees. And the evening will become sunny and cool, but there is no Frosts Descent. Because of the suitable natural conditions, the average yield of Kona coffee is very high, reaching 2240 kg per hectare, while in Latin America, the yield of coffee per hectare is only 600kg ~ 900kg.
