HOT ! Honalo Farm Private Reserve 16-oz

Private Reserve – Our exceptional, gourmet-level coffee beans that will satisfy the palate of the most discerning coffee connoisseurs. This coffee exhibits special taste characteristics relating to a specific terroir, with a flavor spectrum that reflects style, radiance, balance, and smoothness; the essence of an ultimate 100% Kona product. The flavor experience from this coffee may vary according to the brewing method and conditions. We recommend Medium or City Roast to convey gentle sweetness and pleasant acidity, along with some fruity/spicy/floral elements.

The flavor characteristics of a particular coffee will not only depend on the single-origin source (terroir), but also on the level of roasting, from medium (~410 °F, near end of first crack) to dark (~445 °F, middle of second crack). Additionally, the hot beverage will vary markedly depending on the brewing method and conditions used. Unlike wine or beer, for example, one does not just open a bottle and find the beverage basically as intended by the producer. Hot coffee requires a considerable degree of end-user intervention and brewing skill. Another important factor is personal taste preference, which can have a major influence. As such, it is not possible to make specific claims about a product\'s taste without specifying many parameters upon which the taste will be dependent.
