#Kona brewing

[cakenoodle]

Right after work I booked it over to EastHonoluluFoodFestival. The boys were working an event and ur just there vibing with them. Enjoyed the all you can eat and drink specials while they went back2back with the music.

We left the Hilton before dawn to head to the Kona airport, and we were treated to a beautiful rainbow, our first on the trip, as we traveled down HI-19. 

The sun was fully up and blazing by the time we arrived at the airport, and I was glad that we gave ourselves enough time to get to the airport so we could walk around a little. While it’s not big, the terminal where the Southwest flights leave from is definitely more deserted in the morning and I had resigned myself to not getting a meal before we boarded the aircraft. Fortunately, walking over to the other terminal was extremely straightforward, and we were able to enjoy a nice little breakfast of a bacon-egg-cheese sandwich and one last Kua Bay IPA. The restaurant was one of the few places that was fully-enclosed in the airport, and it was one of the more pleasant airport restaurant experiences I’ve ever had as it was incredibly low stakes and then we were able to walk back over to our terminal, get our bags scanned (though I was bummed there were no stickers like you get in Puerto Rico), and get on the plane. 

This was definitely a singular and memorable experience; I’m so grateful to have been able to experience it, and it was an amazing way to kick off 2024 travel.

Was talking about my bottlecap collection on my Instagram and I figured I'd bring the party over here as well

My parents have always been big into local beer, so a lot of these are from Oregon breweries 🥰

And some of them have cool stuff on the flip side as well :) Kona brewing caps have Hawaiian vocab words, Widmer Brothers has things to toast (Prost), and Session has rock, paper, scissors (not sure how you're supposed to play it, though 🤔)

[About eight hours. And satan fell by the force of gravity. Got our brewed Kona coffee.]

[mapsoffun]

Our first proper meal in Hawaii! We were staying at the Hilton Waikoloa Village, and while the resort has a number of on-site restaurants, the only one we ever ate at was the Kona Tap Room right off the main lobby. Obviously we were expecting high prices given where we were, but the portions were at least generous for what they considered small plates and the food pretty tasty. The ahi poke nachos were a personal highlight, as I came into this trip with the intention of eating as much poke as possible while we were here, and this was a solid start. 

The main highlight, however, was the beer selection. Being familiar with Kona Brewing’s Big Wave Golden Ale, I was excited to try their IPAs, and the super-hoppy Kua Bay IPA was my personal favorite during our entire stay. (Clearly I’m not the only one, as it was seemingly everywhere we went.) The Castaway IPA was another highlight, while my husband tried the Hula Hefeweizen, the Hanalei IPA, and the Lavaman Red Ale but would come back to the Big Wave time and time again.

I’m glad I did my research ahead of time and found some places off-property that were an easy distance from the resort, as we were then able to try more local dishes and not fall into the lure of buying $36 dollar cheese pizzas (no, really).

What’s Hawaiian coffee got that other coffees don’t?

When it comes to producing coffee, there’s no dearth of land to get the job done. Coffee is currently grown in close to 80 countries across Africa, Asia, South and Central America and the Caribbean. When it comes to flavor however, not many geographies match up to the magic of one particular slice of land. Hawaii. So what is it that makes conventional coffees a daily routine and Hawaiian coffees a pleasurable experience?

Nutrient-rich Soil

Hawaiian coffees are blessed with a home that comes richly endowed with something ordinary coffees don’t have the privilege of either seeing or being surrounded with. Volcanoes. Volcanoes on their part, transform the soil into a nutrient-rich, fertile ground that only the world’s best coffees would demand, appreciate and make the most of. 

Ideal Temperature

Like people, coffee plants too feel the cold, heat and everything else in between. If we don’t like sweating it out under an exceptionally warm sun, neither do they. The trouble with higher temperatures is, they usually lead to abnormal coffee flowering and poor fruiting. High-elevation coffee regions like Hawaii however, have an average temperature of 69 degrees (Fahrenheit) which inspires coffee plants to do what they’re destined to do. Grow, blossom and create the world’s most delectable coffees. 

 Well-spread Rainfall

Heavy rains may not wash away the color of your home but it sure can play havoc with the flavor of a coffee bean. The optimal rainfall condition in Hawaii keeps the flavor of coffee beans from being washed away which explains why they taste sweeter and better than other coffees. Also, the rain here is both abundant and uniformly distributed, which is favorable for coffee plantations to flower and fruit throughout the year.  

Quality Management

The hand that nurtures a coffee plant controls the quality of the resulting bean. Hawaiian coffee producers spare no efforts in terms of resources, techniques and processes to make sure their farms give out nothing less than the world’s finest coffees.

The taste

When you have the world’s best home ground to grow your coffee, a product with exceptional aroma, flavor and after-taste is but a harvest away. Hawaiian coffees are known to be mild in taste and acidity as compared to conventional coffees. Take a sip and you’ll find your coffee to be rich and smooth but never overpowering.

Experience the flavor of Hawaiian coffee today!

25 Most Quirky Facts About Coffee That Will Blow Your Mind

What Are The Quirky Facts About Coffee? Quirky Facts About Coffee: Coffee Drinkers Live Longer Than Non-Coffee Users. Research shows moderate intake (about 3–4 cups per day) may lead a person to a longer life ( Harvard Health Publishing ). Coffee may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, and Parkinson's. Two chemicals in coffee, caffeic, and chlorogenic acid, reduce inflammation. They increase the level of antioxidants in the body and decrease oxidative stress within cells. These acids in the coffee can slow down and prevent cell damage by reducing free radical activity. Decaf Does Not Mean Caffeine-Free. An eight-ounce brewed cup of decaf coffee contains two to 12 milligrams of caffeine based on a Mayo Clinic study. A standard cup of coffee has between 95 and 200 milligrams of caffeine, while a can of cola contains between 23 and 35 mg. Decaffeinated coffee comes from a chemical process where the caffeine is taken out of the beans. These coffee manufacturers then sell the caffeine to soda and pharmaceutical companies. Drinking decaf coffee fuels the soda industry.

Decaf Coffee Is NOT Caffeine Free Coffee Wasn’t Always A Drink, Coffee Was Originally Chewed. Before people learned how to brew coffee, east African tribes mixed coffee berries with animal fat and chewed them as food. They would also ferment the pulp to make a wine-like drink.

Coffee Was Consumed As Food Originally Drinking Coffee Was Once Punishable By Death! In 1511, Mecca rulers believed coffee stimulated radical thinking and banned the drink. During the same period, some Italian clergymen also tried to outlaw coffee because they believed coffee to be "satanic." Yet, Pope Clement VII loved coffee so much that he lifted the ban and had coffee baptized in 1600. In the 17th-century Ottoman Empire, the government believed that coffee contained mind-altering effects. The emperor outlawed coffee from public consumption believing it to be a type of narcotic. In 1746, Sweden's King Gustav III took things to an extreme when it banned both coffee and coffee paraphernalia, including cups and dishes. The Boston Tea Party Helped Popularize Coffee In America. Around the American Revolutionary War, it became patriotic to drink coffee instead of tea.  Also, the Civil War made coffee more common because it helped to energize tired troops.

Bostonians Dumping Tea In The Boston Harbor The Word "Coffee" Comes From The Arabic Word For "Wine". The word 'coffee' comes from the Arabic word 'qahwah' which refers to a type of wine.

Teddy Roosevelt Did Not Coin Maxwell House's Slogan. Some articles report that Teddy Roosevelt, the 26th president, loved coffee very much. In 1907, on a trip to Andrew Jackson's former estate, the president called a cup of Maxwell House coffee "good to the last drop".  This catchphrase is still used today. The truth is that ‘Good to the last drop’ is not presidential, just savvy marketing.

With its tropical climate and areas of mountainous terrain,  Puerto Rico offers suitable conditions for coffee growing.

The Only Oil Painting Of Beethoven By Joseph Karl Stieler Expensive Coffees From Cat Poop And Elephant Dung. In Indonesia, the local adorable weasel-like critter, the palm civet eats the coffee cherries. A unique fermentation process occurs as the beans (rather seeds, to be precise) travel through the civet’s digestive tract. Some brave coffee farmer collects the beans from the civets’ droppings. This special coffee, after roasting, has a smooth finish and a very distinctive flavor to the final brew. Thus, Kopi luwak is known as "cat poop coffee."
