Product Description
For years, visitors to Hawaii have been bringing a taste of Hawaii home with them in the form of 100% Kona coffee. Now you can have it shipped directly to you. The unique environment of the tiny Kona Coffee Belt, only about 2 miles by 15 miles, creates the ideal growing conditions for premium quality coffee beans. Coffee trees flourish on the Kona volcanic slopes under warm morning sunshine and afternoon cloud cover. Individually hand-picking the coffee cherries at the peak of ripeness, our coffee is then sun-dried to bring out its characteristic flavor. The final step is artisan micro-roasting at the sustainable farm in small batches, helping to ensure the freshness of each and every bag of Hawaii Roasters 100% Kona coffee..

 The people at Hawaii Roasters know this is good coffee. March 7, 2007

Kona coffee is world reknowned as being some of the best in the world, and I can speak with experience knowing that this domestic blend compares favorably with some of the best.
However, I only ask those in Hawaii who farm and roast these beans to forgive me for saying that I think Konas are a bit overrated in the world of coffee.
Yes, these beans have a lot of flavor. The body is unrivalled. Everything is balanced in a way that is unique to the Kona bean, but there are no subtle undertones prevalent that make me like the Sumatran and Ethiopian beans so much better. The beans are aesthetically perfect in every way, and I only have to use about 2/3 the portion of what I would use to make my favorite brews, but this is where it gets touchy for me. I pay about $12-13 a lb for coffee that might not be better than Kona coffee, but I like it better. Hawaii Growers makes a mighty fine coffee, one of the best Konas I've ever tasted, but it isn't worth more than $25 a lb. No coffee is worth that to me, and I've tasted the world's finest.
Hawaii Growers is very competitively priced compared to other Konas, so if Kona coffee is the drinker's coffee of choice, then Hawaii Growers is a great choice. For someone who prefers coffee from other regions, Kona still stacks up well, but a purchase for me was to simply try something new rather than to look for a new regular.
 For lovers of strong dark roasts only October 11, 2007

I'm a dark roast lover, but this was too strong for me - regardless of how I made it. I gave it to a friend who thought it was fabulous. So here's my advice: don't make it too strong - it becomes bitter, and if you're not sure you like dark roasts....go with the light roast here. Kona is traditionally very smooth coffee, and this is, but it's truly for strong dark coffee lovers.

I have been drinking coffee for well over twenty years and I have finally found a bean that suits my taste buds. I grind my own coffee so I have only tried the whole bean dark roast and it is the best I have had in years. If you are a Kona coffee lover than this is the end of the road for you. I have also made it the coffee standard in our office.
