Tea & Coffee 09/00 - Brazil: Potential vs. Power (#)
„This coffee is now being listed on the selective menus of five-star luxury hotels around the world alongside the ranks of Jamaican Blue Mountain and Hawaiian Kona. Even the quality-pusher, Starbucks, has lended its trust to this bean, carrying on its shelves “Ipanema Bourbon” by the Alfenas company Ipanema Agricola. That’s quite an achievement for a country whose name until recently made roasters cringe.“

„Kona coffee suffers from some of the same problems as Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee. The coffee is overpriced for the quality of the cup. It is, however, an experience worth partaking in if you can get it fresh or roast it yourself.“

Tea & Coffee 04/03 - Coffee With Aloha Spirit: The 32nd Annual Kona Coffee Cultural Festival
„Today, a new mandatory certification program that guarantees origin is in place for all of Hawaii’s coffee. And this year, a landmark labeling law will also go into effect for all Hawaiian coffee, which will allow consumers to clearly distinguish a 100% Kona coffee from a blend. Any coffee containing less than 100% pure Kona coffee must be labeled a “blend,” and the exact percentage by weight of Kona coffee must be specified on the package. At least 10% Kona coffee must be present for a coffee to be called a “Kona Blend,” and that percentage also must be specifically stated.“

„Kona, on the southwest coast of Hawaii, the largest island of the Hawaiian chain, produces the most famous and the most traditional of Hawaiian coffees. Coffee has been grown in smaller quantities elsewhere on the islands since the early days of European settlement, but encouraged by the impending closure of sugar and pineapple plantations and the tourism-induced popularity of Hawaiian coffee, large commercial concerns now have established plantations on the islands of Kauai and Molokai. Similar efforts soon may follow on other islands.“

The Coffee Review - the world's leading coffee buying guide
„Hawaiian Kona. The tiny Kona growing district on the southwest coast of Hawaii, the "Big Island" of the Hawaiian chain, produces the most famous and the most traditional of Hawaiian coffees. Entirely hand-picked, wet-processed and from trees of a splendid local strain of typica called Guatemala, Kona is grown on clusters of tiny farms above the Pacific on the lower slopes of Mount Hualalai and Mauna Loa.“
