Kona Mountain Farm

About Our Farm

Kona Mountain Coffee originated in 1986.

For coffee to be certified as 100% pure Kona coffee, it must be grown within an approximately 3 by 7 mile area on the Big Island of Hawaii. The Kona Mountain farm is located in the heart of the Kona Coffee Belt near the town of Kainaliu. Our estate grown coffee's reputation comes from our attention to detail—from hand-picking every bean at the peak of ripeness, to state-of-the art milling and storage, to small batch roasting.

Did you know?

In a region where 3 - 5 acre farms are predominate, our Kona coffee farm, at approximately 90 acres, is one of the largest estate coffee farms in the Kona Coffee Belt. It lies at elevations ranging from 1600 to 2400 feet above sea level and enjoys some of the finest deep volcanic soils on the Big Island.

Planted in organized rows and spaced twelve feet apart, our farming and irrigation techniques facilitate optimum coffee growing and picking. Coffee pickers enjoy picking coffee at our farm because the land is level and grass-covered, unlike many of the neighboring Kona coffee farms. View more coffee facts.
