Coffee tree in Kona, Hawaii Island
Kona coffee, grown in the Kona region in Hawaii Island (the Big Island), is among the world's most delicious and expensive coffee varieties. The best of the best is the 100% Kona Peaberry. For those coffee aficionados, visiting local coffee factories and see how coffee beans are processed is an interesting experience.
I usually like dark roast but this time I bought both dark and medium roast peaberries. For Kona coffee, if I have to pick just one, I actually like medium roast a little better. It reminds me of a rare Brazilian peaberry I bought a long ago.
The following is from Wikipedia: Kona coffee is the market name for coffee cultivated on the slopes of Hualalai and Mauna Loa in the North and South Kona Districts of the Big Island of Hawaii. It is one of the most expensive coffees in the world. Only coffee from the Kona Districts can be described as "Kona". The weather of sunny mornings, cloud or rain in the afternoon, little wind and mild nights combined with porous, mineral rich volcanic soil, creates favorable coffee growing conditions.
