Kona coffee
Everything you need to know about Kona coffee from Hawaii -- including the different grades of Kona, why it's so good, and all the other jargon of the coffee shop.
Here are the basics:
The Kona district of the big island of Hawaii is a nearly perfect environment for growing coffee. We're talking mountainsides, rich volcanic soil, sunny mornings and cloudy afternoons, plenty of rain and long dry winters that allow the coffee flowers to bloom and mature.
Real Hawaiin Kona coffee is some of the best beans in the world. It can be difficult to find.
Avoid Kona Blend coffee -- it's only 10% real Kona beans (and those the cheapest, runtiest little beans that can be found).
