Peaberry Coffee | 100% Kona Coffee

Gourmet coffee is exceptionally flavorful, aromatic and gratifying to the taste. Basically, there are two categories of coffee, Arabica and Robusta. While Robusta tends to be a hardier tree and is more widely grown and distributed, it is less pleasing to the discerning palate. Almost all gourmet coffee is a type of Arabica. Wings of The Morning uses a Guatemalan Arabica variety of coffee that thrives in the upland Kona conditions.

Kona offers high elevation, well-drained volcanic soil, partially-cloudy days, cool tropical temperatures, minimal wind and plentiful rains. With these ideal conditions, the slopes of Kona, on the Island of Hawai'i are a well-known gourmet coffee growing area.

Wings of the Morning coffee has a rich full-bodied flavor that starts bold and finishes smooth. It sets itself apart by its lack of burnt or sour notes. It starts with our location, type of coffee grown, favorable climate and close attention to every detail of growing, harvesting, processing and roasting.

To preserve the flavor of your Wings Kona coffee, it’s all about protecting it from its three greatest enemies: light, air, and moisture. That’s why every order is packaged in our signature gold Mylar bag with a one-way valve—designed to lock in peak freshness while allowing excess gas to escape without letting any air in.

Once opened, simply roll down the top of the bag to remove excess air, squeeze gently to expel what remains, and seal tightly after each use.

You can also put your remaining beans in an airtight, non transparent container. Store your coffee in a cool, dry place—never the fridge or freezer, where moisture can compromise the flavor.

For the freshest experience, grind only what you need just before brewing. Ground coffee loses its aroma and complexity faster than whole beans.

A well-packed coffee can stay fresh for several months if not exposed to air, moisture and light. Ka'io Farms does not hold an inventory of roasted and packed Wings of the Morning coffee. We roast in small batches and mail freshly roasted coffee directly to our customers.

Oxygen, moisture and light are the main factors that contribute to stale coffee. Coffee beans exposed to light and air are going to oxygenate and deteriorate quickly. Wings of the Morning coffee uses opaque bags to safeguard the freshness, whilst the one-way valve seals out the oxygen.

We do not sell ground coffee in our online shop. Whole beans stay fresh longer and freshly ground coffee tastes better. If you would like to order ground coffee from us, please call us directly.

Just prior to brewing, grind the coffee as you need it, and grind it well. If it looks uneven and has larger chunks, then grind it some more. The coffee should be evenly ground.

Start with good water. Unless you have a good filtering system, do not use chlorine-treated tap water. Drink coffee soon after brewing it. Coffee kept warm on a burner or heat disc loses some flavor after fifteen minutes or so. Gourmet coffee is enjoyable whether it is dripped or percolated, but a French press or a cold-water brewing process can make it even better. Experiment and enjoy!
