Kauai Kunana Dairy 4552 Kapuna Road, Kilauea, HI 96754

"A north shore treasure. Great goat cheeses, fruit and fruit juices, and vegetables. If you are visiting the north shore of Kaua'i, enjoy local farm-grown food. This means enjoying the people who grow and prepare your food to enhance your experience of the food itself. You'll find Kunana at north shore farmers markets, but even better, turn mauka on Kapuna road and go visit the dairy itself."

"A charming working farm run by a family who share their day-to-day experiences with the goat cheese making process. Amazing Chevron (goat cheese)! The tour starts with juice and banana bread while owner waits for all guests to arrive. Despite several other reviews on the web, there is no opportunity for kids to milk the goats. The goats are in a pen and only accessible through one fence that everyone must jockey for space. In the beginning of the tour, the owner allows the guests to feed the goats while he explains the different breeds along with their characteristics and demeanor. The son who runs the tour, and primary business owner, provides branches from local vegetation to feed the goats through the fence. This is the most interaction guests will have with the goats and is the shortest part of the tour. The bulk of time spent is walking the property while the owner gives education on the different types of trees and plants. He gives out samples of some of the fruit as well as honey from his bees. This is a very educational experience and you learn a lot about the medicinal properties of several trees and plants. The tour of farm ends in the milking room and kitchen. Our group was only moderately sized but because the limitations of the space we're split into separate groups. You will let's go into the milking room where someone explains the process how much milk they get from each breed of goat, the time it takes, what they feed them, how many times a day to do it, and ends with guests questions. You are then led into the kitchen area where they explain how the cheese is processed, what they use to make cheese, and how they package it. After the tour the owner brings out a half a dozen different cheese flavors along with crackers to sample. The cheese is Simply Amazing and if you plan on buying any more than what you can eat on the way home, you probably want to pack it cooler to keep this on ice. They have a table of several homemade items that they sell aside from the cheese. All in all it was a great experience and we would recommend it. That said, there was a substantial let down with the kids given that we were under the impression that they could milk the goats and interact with them a bit more. Other than some misguided reviews online that set our expectations a little higher, everyone had a good time."

"The cheese was delicious, fruit lovely. I'd give them a 5 star review, but today at the farmer's market in Lihue community college, the dude had a really condescending attitude. I bought from them last week in Hanelei and she was very nice. He was pretty rude today. We asked about organic farming on Kauai. I love talking with organic farmers wherever I travel and have always felt rapport with folks who care about our planet."

"We've been enjoying their cheeses and soaps since 2007... they are also offering delicious juices and honey now too. We did the tour last time we visited and it was very fun & informative. They will ship the soaps to the mainland... we froze some cheeses and brought them back in our carry on luggage. Yum!"

"We found these wonderful products at the Waipa Farmer's market. I had a refreshing Mango lemonade & we bought Sarah's ginger cookies. The cookies are the best I've ever had! I need to find out how to have them shipped to me in Austin, Texas."
