Tea & Coffee 04/03 - Coffee With Aloha Spirit: The 32nd Annual Kona Coffee Cultural Festival (#)
„Awareness within the specialty market is what has helped Kona coffee explode in the past decade, and the Kona Coffee Cultural Festival, held each November to promote the coffee by celebrating its annual harvest, has grown over the years as well. What began over 30 years ago as a one-day event is now a 10-day festival which includes more than 40 events including parades celebrating local culture and community, a Kona coffee recipe contest, cupping competition, coffee picking contest, coffee farm tours, a symposium and much more. It is the state’s oldest and most active food festival, and the oldest coffee festival held in the U.S. Local residents, coffee growers, importers and roasters from around the world, as well as tourists, flock to the event each year. A two-dollar button gets you entrance into many of the events, and by the time you leave, you will have learned more than you ever thought there was to know about this unique origin.“
