100% Hawaii Kona Makapueo Farm 12 ct. FRC Cups for Keurig K-Cup Brewers, Fresh Roasted Coffee LLC
Kona Makapueo FarmMakapueo Farms is family owned and operated, and strives to preserve the legacy of a 100% Hawaiian managed farm. Betsy Astronomo passed down the farm to her daughter, Mamo. Mamo planted majority of the existing coffee and tended to the plants. In 2002, Mamo unexpedtedly passed away, and the farm began to deteriorate. In 2003, Mamo's son, Kaipo Sheen, the current farm owner and manager, returned to restore and grow Makapueo Farm. Because other local farmers needed support, Kaipo established a cooperative, as well as programs for farmers to learn about techniques and quality control. The farm conserves water and uses natural fertilizers. Makapueo Farm has grown by leaps and bounds, and has control of the entire process--the planting, the harvesting, and the export.Estate: Makapueo Farm (The Eye of the Owl)Region: North and SouthSoil: Kona Lava rocks on Mauna Loa SlopesAltitude: 365 - 670 metersVarietals: Kona TypicaHarvest: July - FebruaryProcess: Wet process, wash beans, and slow driedHere at Fresh Roasted Coffee, we worked tirelessly until we found a way to provide our customers with the ease of their favorite one-touch coffee makers, with the added bonus of environmental awareness.
