Very interesting tour, our guide was very patient with a group of kids. Great tasting variety, was very easy to plan! Thank you!

Most stop in Kona. I learned a lot from Caroline. She showed us how they roasted the coffee and we sampled 6 cups of drum, organic, roasted and organic and coconut coffee. We also sampled the honey, spicy chili and Hawaiian jam paste. In addition, we sampled the chocolate pea berry which was delicious!

We were searching for a last minute coffee tour nearing the last day of our trip. After some comparison we decided on this one. The drive up through the trees was really cool. When we arrived we were asked to wear masks and sanitize our hands. The woman who met us gave us about a 2-3 minute explanation of how they roast their beans. She was showing us the roaster but it was so loud we couldn't hear anything she was saying. After that we went into their small gift shop and she asked if we would like to purchase samples of the different coffee roasts. We got 6 small cups (2 for each roast) for $3 each. She also placed some bits of things to taste along with the coffee which were free. I really enjoyed the tasting part and thought that even though the tour isn't really a tour, tasting the coffee like this was worth the trip. We ended up making small purchases in the gift shop. Overall not what we were expecting for a tour but ended up being a positive part of our trip.

Small coffee place with full cycle. There are coffee plantations just behind the building, roasting in one room and packaging in another. Cute woman will share you how they roast and difference between light and dark roast. Just for $1.5 per cup you can try multiple options and then buy (if you'd like) something. Besides coffee we bought honey and fruit paste. So natural place, not just like one more coffee roasters near by the mall.

My friend and I had a recommendation to check out this area since we are both coffee lovers. We stumbled upon this place and the woman helping us offered us a coffee tasting that included some honey and some chocolate. We did not have a crazy immersive tour, and the tasting was very cool but nothing crazy. But, the hospitality was amazing, and also the coffee I bought is the best I've had. It was pricey, but I wish I would've bought more. I am probably going to order online it is so good. This is also off the hidden path, definitely not filled with tourists. I would definitely call before showing up like we did, when we showed up randomly the woman did seem a little flustered but everything worked out. If you love coffee and are visiting the area I would definitely recommend checking this place out!

We called and were told if we arrived before 1, we would be able to get the tour. We arrived at 12:55 and were told that we could not get the tour because it was a minute past 1. The tour is only 15 minutes but the lady didn't make an effort to at least give us a part of that. Instead, she urged us to just buy the coffee and spend money. If you want to get the full experience, I would say to make sure you get there before 1 because if not, it's a waste.

I love the coffee that comes from here. I've been buying it for at least 15 years or more. Every bag has been a taste of heaven on earth. I want to thank Evelyn for getting it to me without fail for all this time. Anyone traveling to Hawai'i Island make sure you go by, take the tour and get yourself on the scheduled delivery list. You will love it.

Such a beautiful nestled coffee place in the most beautiful place in the world. Love how pure and good the coffee we sampled here tasted! So freshhh can't wait to come back and visit again! The tour was simple and quick but still enjoyed our time here!

We thought we were coming for a cup of coffee before the beach but were pleasantly surprised with a whole experience! We were shown the coffee roasters (both air roaster and traditional drum roasted) and tried coffee made from each type. We also tried a variety of Hawaiian treats - like hand spun honey, lilikoi butter, and chocolate covered pea berry.Coffee: the air roasted coffee was definitely light / dustier... but in a good way. Feels like the type of coffee you'd want to drink if you lived in Hawaii where it's so hot. The traditional drum roasted was darker / fuller. We enjoyed both but ended up ordering a cup of the air roasted coffee to go.Space: there is a cute outdoor space in the back where we drank our coffee. You are literally surrounded by coffee trees!! It's such a relaxing little place up on a hill and awesome that they roast right there... they were roasting as we were tasting! They have all of the other treats we had for sale inside. Took home some lilikoi butter (seemed like a unique gift idea) and chocolate covered peaberries.Thanks for some nice coffee and a great morning experience!
