Learn About Maui Coffee on Your Vacation

Hawaii is famous for its tranquil blue-green ocean, toasty white sand beaches and elegant palm trees. It's what most people imagine when they think of what a tropical paradise should look like. The islands may also inspire visions of great surfing, colorful reefs, and cascading waterfalls in lush jungles.

Yes, these are common aspects of Hawaii living. There is another distinguishing trademark that many visitors forget as soon as they arrive: coffee! Some of the most preferred flavors of coffee are produced in Hawaii, such as the famous Kona Coffee, which is most often sold in a blend with other beans because of its high quality and consequent expense.

Conditions in Hawaii are ideal for growing coffee and this is obvious in the rich flavors you'll find in your cup when you drink them. The Maui Coffee Association is presenting an upcoming event called "The 3rd Annual Seed To Cup" on April 24th from 11a.m. to 3:30p.m. at the Kula Community Center.

If you are on vacation and plan to enjoy the pleasantly cool upcountry, you might consider stopping in for this. Admission is free, and there will be plenty to learn if you are interested in any part of the coffee production process, from plant selection for growers to sampling for the coffee drinking enthusiast.

You will also get to learn about the creative new ways in which coffee is utilized in innovative products. Health information will also be presented, including it's high antioxidant values. For more information on the event, you can call Sydney Smith at 808-572-0977.
