The week in brief
This Week in Hawaii Coffee: June 13-19, 2026
An Oahu coffee town hall and the opening week of the Ka'u Coffee Festival gave the Hawaii coffee scene two very different focal points.
June 13-19, 2026
Coffee people had a choice between a small Oahu industry gathering and a larger regional festival in Ka'u. The town hall was for conversation and connection; the festival was for making time to understand a coffee-growing district through its own week of programming.
Worth making time for
One event was local and industry-facing. The other was a multi-day reason to be in Ka'u.
