Americas Best Coffee straight from the island of Hawaii comes 100% Kona coffee, America's best natively grown coffee.
Kona Coffee is known the world over as one of the smoothest and flavorful coffees on the market. This bold and velvet taste comes only from the coffee grown on the Kona plants.
Cultivated on the slopes of Mount Hualalai and Mauna Loa on the Big Island of Hawaii, Kona is one of the most expensive and sought-after coffees in the world.
Our friend Thomas Weinstein will be in charge of finding the best growers and sources for Americas Best Coffee. ABC will launch its new coffee store in early 2009.
Here a few tidbits of the Kona Coffee. The bright sunny mornings and humid rainy afternoons make the Kona district a favorable place to grow coffee. In fact, because of the coffee plant's preference for a tropical climate, Hawaii is the only place in America where coffee is grown.
The scarcity and cost of Kona coffee as well as the demand it has caused many coffee retailers to offer "Kona blends", which can be misleading because while many would assume this to mean a blend of different varieties of Kona coffee, it is in fact a blend of Kona coffee with less expensive beans, with some blends containing less than 10% Kona coffee.
However, only coffee that contains 100% Kona coffee can be considered and labeled as authentic Kona coffee. Buy some yourself and see why Kona is considered America's Best Coffee.
