Organic Kona Coffee

Kona coffee is the right coffee for its time. Americans are increasingly interested in products that preserve their natural environment and are free of chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Buying certified organic products guarantees that what you eat and drink is good for you and good for the land that produced it.

Kona Coffee is Organic

Kona coffee lends itself to organic production because of the cloud-covered, mountain-shade region of Hawaii’s Big Island that is home to this special coffee.
Much of the manipulation of the coffee plant on inorganic farms is in the development of sun-resistant trees and in treating the soil with chemical fertilizers. Mass-producers of coffee, seeking higher yields, have developed coffee trees that are resistant to harsh sunlight, which is not a natural condition for coffee growing. They then treat their soil to help speed growth. This can result in an unnatural product for you, and devastation for the environment, as rain forests are clear-cut to make way for these sun-grown trees.

Not only are these methods frowned upon by organic Kona coffee farmers – they are completely unnecessary. The very attributes that make the Kona region the perfect place to grow great coffee are its rich, fertile Hawaiian soil and its moist, shady climate. There is no incentive for any producer of organic Kona coffee to manipulate the soil or the crop to achieve higher yield. Kona coffee grows where it grows! And, it yields an organic, unadulterated product that centers on quality, not quantity.

What It Means for You

When you drink a cup of organic Kona coffee, you are not just enjoying the finest-tasting coffee in the world; you are also protecting yourself and your world. You are protecting yourself from harmful chemicals and genetically engineered products that could, over time, cause serious harm to your health. And you are protecting the environment from the clear-cutting of trees, the devastation of habitat and the degradation of soil, and well as promoting fair labor practices and wages.

A rich cup of organic Kona Cloud Coffee is not just a delicious way to enjoy your coffee, but a responsible way.
