Tasting notes from the roast:
"Landed on maybe the best profile I've tasted, super exciting...
Tropical fruit, crisp/intense/vibrant acidity up-front with notes of kiwi, blueberry, and lime throughout the experience."
About SL34
SL34 is a variety originating from Kenya, and has become a benchmark of East African coffees. Over the past couple decades, SL34 has been cutivated in Kona and has taken more prominence because of its fruit-forward and complex profile.
About our process:
In a microclimate like no other, our Kona coffee cherries grow on the volcanic slopes of Hualalai at around 1,800 ft. in elevation. Using natural fertilizers, we care for our coffee trees without the use of harsh chemicals or toxic sprays.
We hand-pick each bright red cherry at harvest and process using the wet method. After we pulp our SL34 coffee fruit, we process it using a wine yeast-fermentation (with no additional water added to the tank) prior to washing.
Raked by hand three times a day for two to three weeks, our Kona coffee beans dry with consistency under Kona's warm morning sun.
100% KONA Coffee: We grow, pick, and (with the help of our neighbors) process our coffee from our family farm in Holualoa, Hawaii, where we roast it fresh in small batches.
