Delight your senses on a tour visiting farmer-entrepreneurs whose island-grown raw materials are cultivated in Kona's rich volcanic soil on the slopes of Hualālai. As cacao is new to Hawaii, start your agricultural journey at Puna Chocolate, one of the United States’ few cocoa growing farms and where you will explore plants that came before western farming. Then descend through a white pineapple patch before reaching a cocoa orchard to learn how this plant produces the beans used to make chocolate! Crack a few “pods” together and try fresh cocoa fruit, and various other local chocolates back in the tasting tent. Next be greeted by the aroma of fresh coffee upon arrival at the award-winning Kona Joe Coffee Farm. Learn how their 100% Kona coffee is grown and processed, and visit the on-site roasting facility. Have time to enjoy the magnificent scenery from the ocean-view lanai, relax with a cup of gourmet Kona coffee, and savor a special coffee bean treat. End your journey with scenic drive down Ali'i Drive along the coastline through the heart of lively and historic Kona.
