medium bodied, fairly low acidity, clean and rich. A very cool sweet nutty and chocolaty tone will be the predominate flavor but you do get hints of light fruit and crispness at the lighter roast points
Maui Kaanpali Estate is a unique Hawaiian coffee. The beans are grown by MauiGrown Coffee at Ka‘anapali Estate in the West Maui highlands.
The 500-acre estate is a former State/private project that used coffee to diversify Maui’s sugar plantations. It performed extensive field trials to find Arabicas that grow best in the soil, altitude and climate, while providing the best cup quality and yields. MauiGrown grows the 4 best Arabica types from those field trials: Maui Mokka, Yellow Caturra, Red Catuai, and Typica.
Typica is the strain they use on the big island for Kona coffee. Mauigrown keeps the price down by doing machine harvesting (versus hand picking) and then using a meticulous sorting process to ensure top quality coffee.
