About coffee from Kona, Hawaii
Kona coffee is grown on the slopes of the Hualālai and Mauna Loa volcanoes on Hawaii's Big Island. It's one of the few coffees grown in the US and is known for a smooth, mellow cup. Check labels carefully: under Hawaii law a "Kona blend" only needs 10% Kona coffee.

Meet Koa Coffee
Koa Coffee began as a small family business on Hawaiʻi Island in 1997 and grows its reputation on 100% Kona coffee. Its coffees have won the Gevalia Kona Coffee Cupping Competition and PCCA Coffee of the Year, and Forbes named it the Best Coffee in America in its 50 of America's Best list. Koa says its cherries are picked by hand only when fully red, and the team cups every roast before it ships. Kona coffee grows in one small district on the volcanic slopes of Hualālai and Mauna Loa and makes up less than 1% of the world's coffee, which explains the price.
