Single Origin Hawaiian Coffee

Hawaiian Single Origin Coffees

100% American grown, harvested and processed in Hawaii!!!

Coffee labels, like wine labels, can be confusing. Coffees may be designated as "single origin", or as a "blend". Other times a coffee might be called "estate" or "micro-lot", or labeled as a "varietal". What does all this mean? Keep reading; perhaps we can help you sort it out.

Single origin means that the coffee comes from one specific growing region. It is not combined with other beans. Coffee from a single origin will capture the essence of a particular place. As is true for wine, coffee has its ideal growing environments where the best beans are produced, and these areas yield great single origin coffees. Some well known ones are Hawaiian Kona, Guatemalan Antigua and Ethiopian Yirgacheffe, and each has its distinctive character.

Estate coffee comes from one single farm. A micro-lot refers to beans that come from just one field on a specific farm. These beans will have their own special character as well.

To really get to know coffee, drinking a single-origin brew is the way to go. You will be able to identify characteristics from each coffee that pleases your palette.

The following is a description about each of our single origin Hawaiian coffees. Try each one to find the profile you love!

100% Kona - Kona is a very special coffee grown n the volcanic lava rock slopes of Kona, Hawaii. It is a deliciously rich, medium-bodied and a slightly acidic coffee with a heady aroma; with a complex, wine, spicy taste. You might detect fruitiness and a nutty note as well. Kona coffee is revered as the richest, most flavorful coffee in the world.

Bad ass coffee offers three different roasts of 100% Kona coffee to tempt your taste buds.

American Roast - The least roasted of our coffees,
resulting in a mildly rich flavor with a maximum amount
of caffeine left in the bean. Cinnamon in color and no visible oil on the bean

Full City Roast - The middle-of-roast coffee lover's
option. This roast has a richer flavor and less caffeine
than our American Roast. This roast brings out the best
Kona characteristics. This bean is a dark brown color and slightly oily.

French Roast - Coffee roasted to a full, rich, dark
state. Beans roasted to a French roast are very oily and
dark brown. French roast tastes stronger, despite having less
caffeine than a lighter roasted bean.

100% Kona Peaberry - Peaberry, cherries with only one bean, are separated and sold as a delicacy. They are small and round in shape and constitute from two to five percent of the coffee crop. Kona Peaberry offers the best of the Kona taste profile and is the coffee that is the least acidic to the stomach. Full City Roast.

Waialua - A washed Hawaiian Typica varietal. A smooth mellow, well balanced cup with a medium body, clean finish, hint of chocolate and a pleasant lingering aftertaste. This coffee is grown on the North Shore of Oahu and roasted to our Full City Roast. Rich in flavor and aroma, great for the bold, rich coffee connoisseur.

Maui Peaberry - 97.2% of Maui Grown Coffee contains two seeds in every cherry, 2.8% of the time, only one seed grows in the cherry and this seed is called a Peaberry. Maui Peaberry is a blend of three varieties of Peaberry; Yellow Caturra, Typica and Red Catuai. Mild and earthy with medium body, mild acidity, subtle nutty, buttery notes and full flavor. Full City Roast.


Maui Yellow Caturra - A single origin coffee from the island of Maui. Most coffee cherries, when ripe are a rich dark red color; this coffee ripens to a bright yellow, hence the name. Maui Yellow Caturra begins with a chocolaty aroma and flavor, boasts slightly earthy notes and the finish is especially mild and smooth. Full City Roast.
