Pele Plantations: 100% Organic Kona Coffee

"Recently I purchased another brand of coffee beans to support a great mission and see if my Kona addiction was real. Although I enjoyed the other coffee, I didn’t realize how much of a Kona fan I was until I brewed the first pot of Pele Plantation coffee after drinking the other coffee for a few weeks. What a difference. Everyone who drinks coffee at my house loves it but most are not willing to make the investment in perfect beans. They wonder why my coffee is so good. It all starts with the Pele Plantation beans. They are never bitter and are always smooth."

"I love Pele Plantations which I found online. I was buying Kona from another distributor and read that the best and freshest came from Hawaii so....I picked Pele. I joined the coffee club as Melanie was so pleasant and helpful in recommending a coffee for me. My orders come on time, are packaged well and smell so wonderful before I get them out of the mailer box. I began with medium roast but tried Pele Roast and it's my new go to. I'm into my second year of membership and look forward to the arrival of my order...as does my husband and my adult son. Now and then I run out before I get my order and after drinking Kona regularly, it is impossible for me to be satisfied with anything else out there. Price wise, it's an indulgence that I believe I'm worth and if it weren't for the shipping cost to Southern U.S, it would be almost practical :) If you are a Kona drinker, I highly recommend Pele Plantations and if you want to try something extravagant for your taste buds, I highly recommend Kona."

"Melanie was an incredible host and very accommodating to experiment with Coffee flights as opposed to her typical plantation tour. We sampled 4 different beans/roasts, with a couple that were freshly roasted earlier that day. All of them were amazing. The view from that high up was pretty amazing. As I didn't look at photos prior to, I was not expecting to be at that elevation. We stocked up our suitcases for the return trip and we are ordering our next batches! The plantation visit with Melanie was a very memorable part of our trip to Hawaii, rekindled every time we brew a cup back home."

"After looking at many places in Kona to tour a coffee plantation, we settled on the Pele Plantation. I decided to send out an email from their website to see about taking a tour later that day. Within 20 minutes I had a reply and a time scheduled. We were sent detailed information on what to wear, directions, and if our teenage girls would like anything else to eat while we were there. The owner of the Pele Plantations (Melanie) greeted us and took us on a tour of her and her husbands coffee plantation. She was very informative on her knowledge of growing and producing coffee. You could also tell that she makes sure, she is putting the best organic Kona coffee product that she has to offer to her customers. Melanie is very meticulous about ever bean that gets picked and how it is roasted before sending it out to her customers. After our tour Melanie opened up her home and introduced us to a couple of flavors of her coffee and how it should be brewed to get the full flavor of the coffee. All in all we had a magnificent trip and tour of their Plantation and I would recommend a tour and their coffee to anyone that visits. -C"
