Fields of Coffee
Posted on Wed, Jul 28, 2010 by Sheila
Two words that are well-known bffs are Kona and coffee. Today’s fields of Hawaii photo is of a Kona coffee farm on the Big Island of Hawaii. When you visit, you can find plenty of free coffee farm tours and tastings.
Kona coffee is considered to be among the best coffees in the world. What makes it special? As the Kona Coffee Council says,
Rocky volcano slopes nurture it.
Sun-drenched mornings ripen it.
Misty afternoons refresh it.
Six hundred farmers meticulously handpick it.
Though not as famous, you’ll also find coffee fields on Molokai, Kauai, and Oahu.

Hi Sheila,Did you hear that Rusty’s Hawaiian Coffee of Kau won first place in the islands. It knocked Kona off it’s perch. In fact I believe that a Kauai coffee took second place. I’ve got to find that Rusty’s as I just love kona and can’t imagine what Rusty’s must taste like. Anyway here’s a site you can go to if you want to read more about it.http://bit.ly/aBKrur

Karen – those are some very interesting results. To me, it really doesn’t matter what part of Hawaii my coffee was grown as long as it was grown in Hawaii.
When we go to Walmart, we like to look for Kauai Coffee. It’s about the only Hawaii-grown coffee we can readily find in North Carolina. It’s actually a bit cheaper than Kona coffee and tastes great to us.
