Coffee Variety & Process: Kona Typica
This Earth Month, we mālama hōnua (celebrate our Earth island) with farmers who stand out as exceptional stewards of the land.
We're proud to feature, for the first time, organically grown Kona Restoration Coffee. This medium-light Kona Typica comes from a new farm that's wholly dedicated to conservation, soil health and agroforestry.
Located 1,500 feet up the slopes of Mauna Loa volcano above Kealakekua Bay, a passionate couple - Johann and Rivah - with backgrounds in restoration science and policy, put the conservation principles they practice to work on their land.
Ōhiʻa and māmaki are interplanted with Kona Typica and cacao. Beneath the plantings, invasive trees have been uprooted and ground to mulch. Beneath the mulch, the farm is fertilized with nutrient-rich Bokashi, a soil amendment made from macadamia husks, spirulina and fish, whose function is to propagate indigenous microbes and, ultimately, grow strong, abundant, nutritious plants.
By replanting native flora and propagating indigenous microbes, Johann and Rivah have laid the foundation for a healthy, resilient farm - one that grows flavorful fruits without the need for harsh chemical inputs because the ecosystem defends itself.
Once harvested, plump coffee cherries are carried to a raised platform. They tumble down a long chute where they're gravity fed into the pulper, as a means to save energy and use sloped topography to their advantage.
Between their clever jungle engineering and agroforestry practices, you can see why we're fans! We are so proud to mālama hōnua with Kona Restoration Farms this month, share their beautiful coffee and support their plans.

Because Espresso Bites are made without stabilizers or preservatives, they may bloom or melt when shipping temperatures exceed 80 F. If this is a concern in your location please select FedEx shipping.
If you notice a white color to your bar, it's perfectly safe to eat. This happens when the cocoa butter softens and migrates to the surface. It happens more often when shipping in warm weather. Learn more about blooming.
Espresso Bites that melt or bloom when shipped via FedEx are eligible for a full refund or credit.
Espresso Bites that melt or bloom when the buyer elects Free Shipping or standard USPS are eligible for a credit.
