Kona Coffee Beans Harvested the Way Nature Intended Offered at Kaldi.com

Kona coffee beans are a decidedly hot commodity in the coffee business. The manners in which the Kona coffee beans are grown and cultivated then roasted and brewed all affect their quality. Pure Kona coffee beans are always freshly roasted before being shipped out by Kaldi Gourmet Coffee Roasters.

One unique characteristic of Kona coffee beans is the land on which they are grown. The farms in Hawaii that produce the Kona coffee beans never exceed ten acres, and usually are around five acres. This small area provides a much more natural and attentive environment for the Kona coffee beans. The smaller field of plants that make Kona coffee beans means that the farmers can actively check most of the crop more frequently. The smaller area also causes the Kona coffee beans obtained from each farm to be much more even and uniform. Larger Kona coffee beans farms may produce crop that is different at the far ends of the farm because of the varying conditions. Kona coffee beans offered by Kaldi Gourmet Coffee Roasters are always fresh from a small farm in Hawaii.

Another great part of harvesting Kona coffee beans involves the method of cultivation. The land on which the Kona coffee beans grow is not even enough to allow for equipment based picking. This means that all of the Kona coffee beans that leave Hawaii were hand-picked by native people. The demand for Kona coffee beans supplies many people in Hawaii with jobs while simultaneously is monitored by a real person during the picking phase. Kona coffee beans that are not ready for picking won’t be accidentally chosen, nor will rotten or overripe cherries. Since the farmers of Kona coffee beans must pay actual people to harvest their crop, the price of Kona coffee beans is slightly higher than other coffee beans. The extra money is going directly to help local people, so when you purchase Kona coffee beans from Kaldi.com you are directly affecting the lives of many.

Early Kona coffee beans were grown by the Japanese immigrants originally brought in as slaves long ago. Over the years many Japanese people who populated the land began to use what they learned as slaves for their own benefit by growing their own Kona coffee beans. One particular aspect of cultivation that was invented by the Japanese people involves drying the Kona coffee beans. The Japanese people created a special technique to dry the Kona coffee beans after they have been wet processed. The Kona coffee beans are laid out to dry in a special area that is protected by a roof. The roof slides open to allow the sun in, but can quickly be closed to protect the Kona coffee beans from the rain. Rain storms can quickly develop in the Hawaiian region so the Kona coffee beans are in constant danger of being saturated. This Japanese invention is called a hoshidana and is stilled used to protect the Kona coffee beans today. The attention and care given to Kona coffee beans can be tasted with every sip you brew after obtaining your own through Kaldi Gourmet Coffee Roasters.
