In the 1970s and 1980s, Kona coffee prices went through several ups and downs, but it was during this period that Kona coffee established itself as the world's top coffee. Even though Kona coffee has become world-famous, its production remains relatively low

Kona coffee beans are evenly shaped, with intense acidity and sweetness, and a smooth, moist taste. Because it grows on volcanoes and has a high density of artificial cultivation, each bean can be said to be a spoiled "lady", beautiful, plump and baby-like delicate skin.

Although Hawaii is often affected by tornadoes, the climate conditions are ideal for coffee growing. There is plenty of rain and sunshine here, and there is no worry about frost. In addition, there is a strange natural phenomenon called "free shade." On most days, around 2 p.m., white clouds appear in the sky, providing the coffee trees with the shade they need. In fact, it is the natural conditions that make Kona produce more Arabica coffee than any other plantation in the world, and maintain a high quality, unique growth and climate to create a stronger coffee flavor.

Unfortunately for coffee fans, only about 1400 hectares produce Kona coffee. And because of Hawaii's high income levels and high tourist numbers, Kona coffee is so expensive that even kona blend (less than 5% kona) is sold. Nearby islands such as maui, kauai and molokai have also begun growing coffee commercially. In hawaii, you can watch the blazing sunset sink into the red-orange sea, feel the fresh, flowery air, and sit by the sea with a cup of kona coffee. I'm afraid there's no place in the world that can offer you such enjoyment.

Hawaii's earliest settlers arrived in 300 - 400 AD, and historians speculate that they came from the Marquesas Islands. The people lived on the island in separate tribes led by hereditary chiefs. The earliest Hawaiian inhabitants created Hawaii's rich musical culture, although not much writing survives.

The Europeans discovered Hawaii by accident. They were originally looking for a legendary passage to the east to produce spices, but instead they found the richest pearl in the Pacific Ocean. A captain named James Cook landed on Kauai in 1778 to supply his ships. He encountered severe cold and storms on his way back, and had to return to Hawaii early the following year and anchor on a beach in Kona. Since then, the Hawaiian Islands have become important stopovers on the world trade routes. Hawaii's chiefs traded sandalwood, a native of the island, for weapons, goods and livestock with passing ships. From the 1820s, Western religion began to spread widely on the island, and many churches built in that era are still in use today.

Agriculture is the mainstay of the local economy, producing sugar cane, pineapple, coffee, bananas, etc., among which pineapple production ranks first in the world. [1]Hawaii is suitable for sugar cane growth. Two thirds of the islands 'land is planted with sugar cane, which produces about 1 million tons of crude sugar annually. This is equivalent to 10% of the total sugar consumed in the United States each year, so it is called the Sugar Island of the United States. [4]Industry to food processing industry-based, there are a small number of oil refining, chemicals, cement and so on. Both food and major industrial products are imported. Due to its pleasant climate and beautiful scenery, tourism is very developed, with an annual average of more than 7 million visitors. Oahu is a concentrated tourism area. [1]

The Bank of Hawaii calculates that tourist spending in Hawaii has a ripple effect of 2, meaning that for every dollar spent by tourists, it adds $2 to total local output. Tourism revenue accounts for 60 percent of GDP, keeping Hawaii's economic growth rate consistently higher than the average for the United States economy. [1]

Because tourism plays an important role in Hawaii's economy, the state government attaches great importance to protecting the environment, protecting tourism resources, and paying attention to the development of "clean" industries, such as marine science, aquaculture, tropical agriculture, financial services, and commercial centers, in order to promote the development of tourism and promote economic development. Hawaiian air traffic is extremely important, and inter-island routes are mainly flown by two airlines: Hawaiian Airlines and Aloha Airlines. Honolulu International Airport-The state's most important aviation hub, most flights to and from Hawaii end there, with connections to other islands. There are also routes to major Asian cities, such as Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, Seoul, Taipei, Sydney, Auckland and other old Hawaii, social hierarchy. The kapu system classifies people and stipulates that men are superior to women. The highest social hierarchy was chieftains and priests, the lowest slaves, and the middle commoners. The kapu system defined where the different classes of people would fish and hunt, where they would farm and harvest, what beaches they would swim on, what they would eat, and how they would dress. Violators were punishable by death.

Hawaiians believe in gods and destiny. They believe that the power of gods is determined by the rank and age in the family of gods. Therefore, the status of people is also determined by the position of the family in society and the rank and age of people in the family. The higher the seniority, the older the seniority. Hawaiians believe that anything that has life has "ma na," which is the spirit and aura obtained from distant ancestors and gods. Hawaiians believe that after death the soul does not die, ancestors will often return to bless their descendants. But ordinary people have very little hemp, unlike chiefs who can always get it from the gods in heaven. In order to protect their own hemp, people are very taboo to their own personal clothes for others to use

The best Kona coffees are divided into three categories: ExtraFancy, Fancy and NumberOne. This third-class coffee is produced both on the estate and under natural conditions. Most of the coffee marketed as "Kona" contains less than 5% real Hawaiian Kona coffee. Another good Hawaiian coffee can be found in the United States-Kai Farms.

Taste of Hawaii

Hawaii's earliest coffee plantations followed the model of large-scale coffee plantations, and at a time when coffee was not a widely grown crop worldwide, Kona coffee production and sales fluctuated. After the outbreak of World War I, demand for coffee increased dramatically, and the government bought coffee in large quantities for soldiers to keep them fit. The increase in demand triggered a price hike, and Kona coffee was no exception. The period between the outbreak of World War I and 1928 was the golden age of Kona coffee. But the Great Depression that followed dealt Kona another blow. In 1940, World War II drove coffee prices up again, and the U.S. government set a price cap to prevent excessive price increases. Even so, coffee farmers in Hawaii benefited a lot. Their transportation mode of transporting coffee fruits changed from donkeys to jeeps during this period.
