I love Hawaiian grown coffee and they always have the most interesting names. I think it has a special kind of taste that it gets from the content of the soil due to volcanoes.

I have to agree that the taste is something special. They have such fertile land in some areas and lots of rain so it must help. Have you ever had the chance to visit a coffee plantation on Hawaii?

The fertile soil helps a great deal. I've never seen a coffee field. I wonder if they look like rice padddies? Maybe that's a ittle too fertile?

I don't know. Somehow they make it work and then they give it a really bold name (so bold I can not repeat half of them) still I applaud the coffee that comes out of Hawaii.

Well, a true Hawaiian is a must-try but I doubt we often taste a genuine product. Such coffees (as well as JBM) are often counterfeited.

I was fortunate enough to visit Hawaii a few times, and I agree their coffee is really good. The coffee and macadamia nuts in Hawaii are two of the foods I miss the most from that beautiful state. I didn't know the coffee is often counterfeited. If the stuff I had in Hawaii was counterfeited, they sure did a good job, but I have to imagine I got the real thing.

All Hawaiian coffee is high grade; and is generally large bean, blue-green in color when new crop, and yellow-brown when aged.

Hawaian coffee is good, indeed, however, it isn't better than Jamaican - this is my favorite.

I don't like Hawaiian coffee and don't understand all this fuzz around it.

I've heard that Kona coffee cultivated on the slopes of Hualalai and Mauna Loa in the North and South Kona Districts of the Big Island of Hawaii is one of the most expensive coffees in the world.

I like the Maui Hawaiian coffee but it is so expensive. Where could I find something cheaper?
