A Luxurious Coffee Experience, Paired with the Ultimate "Experience"

Hawaii Kona Coffee is highly rare and acclaimed as one of the world's top three coffees. Only Arabica beans cultivated in the limited area of the Kona district on the west side of the Big Island of Hawaii are called "Hawaii Kona Coffee." UCC established the "UCC Hawaii Kona Coffee Direct Farm" in this Kona district in 1989. The current total farm area is approximately 16 hectares (about 3.5 times the size of Tokyo Dome), with a planting area of approximately 9 hectares (about 18,800 trees), pursuing Kona coffee quality from the cultivation stage.

As it is relatively accessible and easy to visit compared to other coffee-producing regions worldwide, the farm also serves as a tourist destination, offering farm tours, roasting experience tours, and harvesting experience tours. Furthermore, UCC has deepened its relationships with local producers by cooperating in various local events, contributing to the development of the coffee industry. UCC continues to sponsor the "Kona Marathon," held around June each year, as well as the "Kona Coffee Cultural Festival," held every November for over 50 years.

This time, UCC has carefully selected Kona coffee beans cultivated on farms surrounding its direct farm, and roasted them by the direct farm's roasters who know Kona coffee inside out. The meticulously chosen 100% Kona coffee will be delivered to Japan in two types: whole bean and ground.

In addition to selling coffee, UCC aims for customers to "fully savor the atmosphere of Hawaii and the background of how the coffee was nurtured." To achieve this, they have realized an online tour in collaboration with UCC Hawaii and the UCC official online store. This is a special opportunity to learn about the product while feeling the refreshing Hawaiian breeze and sunshine.
