In their words

The story

Ka'u is one of those Hawaiian growing regions that tends to get overshadowed by Kona — which seems a bit unfair. The southern tip of the Big Island has its own microclimate and its own character, and this roaster in Naalehu is working with coffee from that specific district, which is at least a reasonable starting point. The listed hours — open around the clock, every day — suggest this is more of a production operation than a walk-in café, and that seems worth knowing before you make a detour. Good roasting doesn't require a pastry case. If you want coffee sourced from this particular corner of the island, it's worth a call ahead.
