100% Kona Coffee (Peaberry #1)

100% Kona Coffee. "The Undisputed King of Kona." Kona coffee, in general, is one of the rarest and most luxurious coffees in the world. "Peaberry #1," on the other hand, is the rarest and highest grade of Kona coffee available on the market - it falls under the Type Il coffee beans. Type I coffee beans consist of two beans per coffee cherry, flat on one side, oval on the other (this is what most of us are used to). Type Il coffee beans consist of a single round bean per coffee cherry, which is 9x more rare.

So, why does the shape of the bean matter? Two reasons. Peaberry beans roast differently and they taste differently. From a taste perspective, peaberry coffee is typically more acidic, more complex in the upper aromatic ranges, and somewhat lighter in body. Peaberry coffee is smooth, rich, and robust in flavor.

Why Kona Coffee Is So Special?

Grown in the nutrient-rich volcanic soil of Hawaii’s Big Island, authentic 100% Kona Coffee thrives in the unique microclimate of the Kona Coffee Belt. High elevation, ideal rainfall, and steady cloud cover contribute to a growing environment that’s virtually impossible to replicate elsewhere in the world. Every bean is handpicked and sun-dried by local farmers committed to preserving the region’s legacy of quality and craftsmanship.

How to Brew Kona Peaberry Coffee?

To fully experience the flavor depth of Kona Peaberry Coffee, we recommend brewing it with a French press, pour-over, or Chemex. These manual brewing methods highlight the coffee’s citrusy acidity, smooth finish, and floral aroma. Whether you're starting your morning or savoring a weekend ritual, this premium Kona coffee offers an unparalleled cup worth slowing down for. Kona Peaberry beans have a rounder shape and denser structure, which affects how they absorb heat during roasting and release flavor during brewing. To bring out their signature smoothness and bright acidity, use a pour-over, AeroPress, or Chemex method with water heated to 200°F (93°C). Grind your beans medium-fine for pour-over, or medium-coarse for French press, and aim for a 1:15 coffee-to-water ratio. Peaberry’s dense structure makes it ideal for precision brewing — a slower pour or gentle immersion helps unlock its fruity aromatics and layered flavor profile. For the freshest experience, always grind just before brewing and use filtered water.

Why Brewing Recommendations Differ Between Kona Peaberry and Extra Fancy?

Although both are 100% Kona Coffee, Peaberry and Extra Fancy beans differ in structure and roasting behavior, which affects how they should be brewed. Peaberry beans are smaller, rounder, and denser, meaning they extract flavor differently and often benefit from a slightly finer grind and hotter water to unlock their bright, aromatic character. In contrast, Extra Fancy beans are larger and flatter, which creates a more balanced, smoother cup with slightly cooler water and a coarser grind. These tailored brewing suggestions help you get the best flavor possible from each unique bean — whether you're enjoying the rich complexity of Kona Peaberry or the clean, velvety smoothness of Extra Fancy.
