Green Ka'u

About This Coffee

Each year we cup dozens of coffees from different farms in Ka'u spanning the three primary growing areas within Ka'u: Cloud's Rest, Wood Valley, and Pear Tree. We're looking for coffees with high levels of caramel-like sweetness, roasted nuts (often pecans or hazelnuts), and the brightness of ripe stone-fruit or citrus. The best Ka'u coffees we taste combine to create our signature single origin Ka'u coffee. While their strengths are often different, they compliment each other nicely: bright, long and juicy fruit tones meet with a medium-full body and candied sweet finish. We aim to source the highest quality Ka'u coffees available selected on the merits of quality year after year. By virtue of being one of Hawaii's few micro-mills we're able to keep our Ka'u coffee in the parchment state until it's ready to roast, meaning our selection remains fresh and retains great character throughout the year.
