Delicious Kona Peaberry Coffee Will Not Disappoint

Kona Hawaii has the perfect climate, elevation and equatorial location to produce one of the best coffee beans in the world, the Peaberry coffee bean. Kona Peaberry Coffee produces a satisfyingly rich cup of coffee and is the reason it is one of the most sought after coffee beans.

There are many brands of coffee sold in Hawaii, but only one that has been specifically marked "Kona Peaberry Coffee." Only coffee grown in a specific area of Kona can be called Peaberry and is graded "prime." It is one of the only beans in Hawaii that has received the grade of "prime" and is stamped that way on the package. Do not accept substitutions.

Because Kona Peaberry coffee has a lower acid content than other beans it brews a smoother tasting cup of coffee. This rare bean is unusual due to its cylinder shape, producing one bean instead of two, and makes up only five percent of the coffee crop. Some believe that because of its differences it yields a darker and stronger but smoother bean.

A French Press coffee pot is the best method with which to taste the great flavor of Kona Peaberry coffee. The brewing in the press produces a smooth rich flavor cup of coffee. Peaberry coffee is a less acidic yet bolder coffee bean and being brewed in a press would produce the ultimate cup of coffee.

When purchasing a package of Kona Peaberry Coffee inspect the ingredient label carefully. It can only be called that if it is 100% Kona Peaberry Coffee. It may say that it is a "Kona" blend. That could mean that it is part Hawaiian coffee, possibly grown in other areas, and a small part Kona Peaberry Coffee. If you are comparing prices you may think you are getting a high grade coffee by purchasing one called "Estate." "Estate" is not a grade of Kona coffee. The Kona coffee council defines "Estate" as "the product of one farm, unmixed with crops from other farms and processed through to roast under the control of that farm." Processing companies buy coffee in cherry form (right off the tree) from many farms in Hawaii. They combine these all the way through to roasting and market it under their own label.

If you are willing to spend a little more you will receive double the flavor on your next cup of coffee if you have purchased Kona Peaberry Coffee.
