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. | | | Features: | |
• All natural, hand-picked, sun-dried and farm-roasted by our master roasters, as it has been done for generations
• Our medium roast is chestnut brown in color, producing a delicate and mild coffee. Also known as a full city roast
• Founded by a 3rd generation coffee family and featured on the Food & Wine Radio Network and KGO Radio
• Winner-Hawaii Governors Export Award and Winner-New & Innovative Product Award at the world's largest food exhibition in Paris
• For just 15 cents more per cup than all the mass market brands that use imported coffee, you can buy local, U.S. grown 100% Hawaiian Kona Coffee and support the only coffee farmers in the U.S.

Great tasting coffee!Aug 25, 2010 Great tasting coffee... but kind of expensive.
I'll probably order again once I run out. =)

Kona Coffee; you've got to be joking!Aug 24, 2010 I am a big sucker for coffee; especially Kona and I try to to taste every brand I get. Hawaii Roasters is absolutely the worst I have tasted so far (Just in case you are wondering my favorite is Koa Peaberry). This one doesn't have even the slightest characteristics of Kona Coffee. If you don't want to spend a small fortune on good coffee; just go with blended Kona. You will save some money over this brand yet still will get a better taste.
Like the medium roast!Jun 29, 2010 Tried it for the first time, has a very relaxing flavor, not too overpowering. I would definitely recommend this for kona drinkers that enjoy the flavor without being too strong. I have found a new afternoon brew.
Out of date bagJun 28, 2010 As long as you have a best before date on the bottom of your bag (got one bad batch with no best before date), this coffee is top notch. One of the best I've ever had, and will continue to order.

Not a good purchaseJun 08, 2010 This was not a good purchase for me. I'm a coffee fanatic and was hopeful of a great coffee experience. Over half the bag went into the trash. I NEED GOOD coffee, especially my first cup of the day. If I don't have that good coffee experience, I trash the offending beans and move on until the beans I find give me what I'm looking for. I found no aroma or flavor with the coffee brewed from these beans. I went back to my regular provider for my beans. (they don't carry Kona which is why I was intrigued to try this offering) I've had 100% Kona many years ago and LOVED it, so it's not that I'm unfamiliar as to what I should be tasting. It's just that this brand did NOT "knock my socks off" and I was hopeful that it would.
UPDATE: After my review, the President of Hawaii Coffee Roasters contacted me and offered a refund or a new bag. I left the choice up to him. I received a new bag and have to say that I had the 5-star experience that I had hoped for. I ended up having received a "bad bag" the first time around. While it is not my favorite varietal, it certainly gave me the coffee experience I was looking for with great richness, smoothness and flavor. I also give 5-stars to Hawaii Coffee Roasters and its' President for OUTSTANDING service.
