usa flagKona coffee is the market name for a variety of arabica coffee beans cultivated on the slopes of the Big Island of Hawaii. This coffee has developed a reputation as one of the most expensive and sought-after coffees in the world. Only coffee from the Kona Districts can be legally described as "Kona". The Kona weather pattern of bright sunny mornings, humid rainy afternoons and mild nights create favorable coffee growing conditions.

The coffee plant was first brought to Kona in the 19th century from Brazil, although it was not until much later in that century that it became a consistent and worthwhile crop. It was grown on large plantations, but the crash in the world coffee market in 1899 forced plantation owners to lease out their land to their workers. Most of these workers managed their leased land parcels of between 5 and 12 acres as family concerns, producing large, quality coffee crops.

The tradition of running family farms has continued throughout Kona. There are approximately 600 Kona coffee farms, with an average farm size of less than 5 acres. In 1997 the total Kona coffee area was 2,290 acres and green coffee bean production just over two million pounds.
