100% Kona
This is not a blend.
Not a rarity by label alone.
True 100% Kona is increasingly difficult to find,
and even harder to sustain at this level of quality.
This lot comes from Kainaliu,
an estate we have worked with for years —
chosen not once, but repeatedly,
for its consistency and quiet improvement over time.
In the cup, it opens wide.
Milk chocolate and hazelnut form a steady foundation,
followed by deep brown sugar sweetness.
There is a brief bitterness at first sip,
which quickly dissolves into a dense, silky body.
As espresso, the structure is firm and comforting.
As filter coffee, the sweetness expands gently,
revealing warmth rather than sharpness.
Kona does not chase intensity.
Its strength lies in balance, depth,
and how naturally it settles into the cup.
A coffee of presence, not spectacle —
rare not because it is loud,
but because it endures.
Roasted individually after your order
and prepared in small batches with care.
