100% Hawaiian Kona Coffee

[CTCoffeeguy]

Hi All,

I live near the Hartford CT area and for many years have purchased Hawaiian Kona coffee from a local coffee shop. Unfortunately today I found out due to a shortage they will not be able to get the coffee for some time. Luckily I was in Kona about a month ago for vacation and picked up some supply, but I was hoping I could get a suggestion from folks here on a reputable online seller who would have the 100% Kona coffee and not a blend.

Thanks much.

Smithfarms 100% Pure Kona Coffee | Established in 1988 and on the Internet Since January 1999! and Award Winning Kona Farm Growing 100% Kona Coffee off the top of my head are two of the most well known and trusted ones in the "coffee circle" if ya know what I mean.

There is definitely a shortage. Hopefully this harvest is much better, but lots of past (last year) contracts have to be filled first, so it will be awhile. When you do find a source questions I would ask are; 1. Is it 100% Kona? 2. Do they use Extra fancy, Fancy, #1, or Prime? I wouldn’t pay top $ for prime or #1. Just a thought.
Some really good South and centrals out there to hold you over if your quest leaves you empty handed though.

Please explain the terms in your #2, extra fancy, fancy or prime. Thanks

Spice, What do you mean by Terms?? Kona is graded as Extra fancy, Fancy, #1, Peaberry and Prime. Prime being the lowest on the totem pole. Point being it doesn't hurt to know what your paying for.
