KopeMaps is a guide and interactive map of coffee places in Hawaii, including farms, roasters, and coffee shops that highlight locally grown Hawaiian coffee.

We cover Big Island, Maui, Oahu, and Kauai—the four main islands with active coffee farms and roasters. Use the filters on the explore page to focus on a specific island or business type.

Our focus is coffee grown in Hawaii. We include farms, roasters who use Hawaiian beans, and shops that serve locally roasted coffee. Some roasters blend Hawaiian coffee with beans from other origins—we note this when known.

We regularly update listings, but hours and availability can change. Many farms operate by appointment only. Always confirm with the official website or call ahead before visiting.

Many farms offer tours and tastings, but most require advance reservations—often a week or more ahead. Tours typically last 1-2 hours and include walking through coffee orchards, learning about the growing and roasting process, and cupping sessions. Check each listing for booking details.

Most tours include a guided walk through coffee orchards (wear closed-toe shoes and be prepared for uneven terrain), an explanation of harvesting and processing methods, and tastings of different roasts and varietals. Some farms also grow cacao, macadamia nuts, and tropical fruits. Tours operate rain or shine—Hawaii's coffee thrives in moist conditions.

Coffee harvest season in Hawaii runs from late summer through winter (August–February), but farms and roasters welcome visitors year-round. Tours typically operate year-round, though some farms have seasonal hours or close for certain holidays. Book ahead—popular tours fill up quickly, especially during peak travel seasons.

For most farm tours on Big Island, Maui, and Kauai, you'll need a car or arranged transportation—they're often in rural areas like Kona or Upcountry Maui. Some Oahu locations near Honolulu are accessible by rideshare or public transit. A few tour operators offer pickup services.

Hawaii is the only U.S. state where coffee grows commercially. The volcanic soil, tropical climate, and microclimates across the islands create unique flavor profiles you won't find elsewhere. Kona coffee from Big Island is world-famous, but excellent coffee also grows on Maui, Kauai, and Oahu.

Kona coffee specifically comes from the Kona district on Big Island's western slopes. It's known for its smooth, mild flavor with low acidity. Other Hawaiian coffees—like Kaʻu, Maui Mokka, and Kauai varieties—have distinct flavor profiles based on their growing regions. All Hawaiian coffee is grown at lower altitudes than most specialty coffee, giving it unique characteristics.

100% Kona coffee contains only beans from the Kona region. 'Kona Blend' is legally required to contain only 10% Kona beans—the rest can be from anywhere. For the authentic Hawaiian coffee experience, look for '100% Hawaiian' or '100% Kona' on the label. We focus on places serving 100% Hawaiian coffee.

Hawaiian coffee typically costs $30-60 per pound due to several factors: Hawaii's high land and labor costs, hand-picking (often required on steep volcanic slopes), and limited supply. You're also paying for single-origin traceability and supporting local farmers. For coffee enthusiasts, the unique terroir and quality make it worth the premium.

Yes! Roasted coffee has no TSA restrictions—pack as much as you want in carry-on or checked bags. Unlike some Hawaiian agricultural products, roasted coffee has no import restrictions to the mainland. For freshness, we recommend buying whole bean and grinding at home.

Many Hawaiian roasters ship nationwide. Look for the website link on each place's listing page, or visit roaster websites directly. Buying directly from roasters ensures freshness and supports local farms.

Find roasters

For the best selection and freshest coffee, buy directly from farms, roasters, or farmers markets. Airport shops are convenient but pricier and may not have the freshest roast dates. Costco carries some Hawaiian brands at lower prices. For true single-origin Hawaiian coffee, visit the source.
