Kona Coffee Tasting: A Farm to Cup Experience

6.Kona Coffee Tasting: A Farm to Cup Experience

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 5 reviews · 1 hour (approx.) · from $10Best value

At The Coffee LAB by Hala Tree Cafe in Kaʻaʻawa, coffee educators guide you through three 100% Kona coffees from the family farm on Mauna Loa. You’ll compare varieties, processing, fermentation, and roast levels while learning how each choice changes the cup. The small group format keeps the tasting personal and easy to follow.

“This was a fun experience. You meet at the bottom floor of the shop. I wished they taught everyone how to taste something, luckily my group went to a Rum tasting the day before and they taught us. Smell with your mouth open, this allows the flavors to hit your tastebuds before you drink. Then take a drink and let the liquids go over different parts of your mouth before swallowing it. Once you swallow then breath through your nose. This allows you to fully taste and experience the coffee and truly get those flavor profiles. Experience lasted about 35mins.”
