REGION: Mauna Loa, Kona, Hawaii
PROCESSING: Washed
VARIETY: Typica
We are very excited to roast this excellent coffee grown on the slopes of the Mauna Loa volcano on the big island of Hawaii. Sourcing and roasting one of the most prized coffees in the world has become a summer tradition, one that is usually met with a lot of enthusiasm from both Kaldi's roasters and customers.
We bought just 60 pounds of the "Extra Fancy" grade that brings a rounded smoothness and lovely balance.
100 GRAM BAGS
Kona coffee has a higher price point due to its rarity and world-class reputation. We are offering bags in 100 gram increments to make this exceptional coffee accessible to a wider range of coffee lovers.

Coffee from Kona has been a prized item for decades. There are many people that consider drinking Kona coffee a non-negotiable during their Hawaiian vacation, and it hooks many people for years afterwards due to its lovely balance, sweetness, and general vibe. It really has become synonymous with Hawaii itself.
Brewing tip:
We recommend using water a little lower in temperature around 190-195°F to help highlight its acidity while still appreciating its depth.

We offer three different grind sizes on the vast majority of our coffee offerings: drip, espresso, and French press.
- Use drip grind if you plan on making your coffee using a coffee machine, in a pour over brewer, or if you want to try a newer way to make your trusty French press.
- Use espresso grind if you have an espresso machine at home. This grind will be very fine and will over-extract (in other words, taste bitter and chalky) in other methods.
- Use French press grind if you are making a coffee in the more traditional French Press method, or making cold brew, or do very large batches in a Chemex (greater than 60 grams of coffee).

Please visit our brewing page here. Coffee brewing is as much an art as it is a science, and it might take a few tries for you to find a sweet-spot that matches your taste preference. We recommend not getting too lost in the "right" way to brew, but instead focus on what you like and try to educate yourself on some best practices. And then just take it from there!
That said, we offer several how-to's for many popular brewers:

Our blends run from medium-light to dark. You can get a full breakdown of the blends in our Blend Buying Guide.
Core Blends include:
700 is our medium-roast core espresso blend that also tastes great as drip.
Cafe Kaldi has been our house blend since 1994. It contains coffee from Ethiopia that gives it a touch of complexity.
Dancing Goats Blend is a little more developed and gives a bit bolder of a cup.
Highlander Grogg is a fan-favorite flavored coffee.
