      But if you can't escape to the islands, which most of

  us can not, we can personally guarantee that a cup of

  premium 100% Kona Coffee will take the chill off

  even the coldest, grayest days.  Discover truly fresh,

  sun-kissed coffee beans that were basking in the

  Hawaiian sun as recent as a week prior to receiving

  your shipment of these enviable beans.

  decidedly smooth and

  mild flavor, low acidity.  As any coffee connoisseur

  knows, "Fancy Grade" Kona Beans are superior to "Prime

  Grade" and "#1 Grade" beans.  So you can be sure that

  our coffee is of the highest quality.  100% Fancy Grade

  Kona Beans -- nothing less.  Not a mixture of adulterated

  beans common in many other coffee brands which claim to

  Kona Coffee.  Most others are only 10% Kona Beans;  some

  are as little as 2% Kona Beans.  Our coffee is so

  flavorful that you need only 2 ounces per 10-cup pot!


      Also available, a rare Kaawaloa Estate Kona Coffee

  with a very distinctive taste for the refined palate.

  Grown at 2,200-foot elevation on our neighbor's 5-acre

  estate of 100-year old trees, this really is a special

  bean to be savored.
