100% Maui Mokka Coffee
100% Maui Mokka Coffee, MAUI MOKKA: ROASTED TO ORDER We're thrilled about the re - arrival of this Maui Mokka(R) coffee, one of our most - requested coffees. It's heavy - bodied, fudgy, and fragrant. It needs neither milk nor sugar, yet it can hold up to both. Compared to our 100% Kona Coffee, Maui coffees tend to be nuttier and have fewer fruit - like tasting notes. Mokka is a Maui coffee well - suited to its trademarked name: Maui Mokka(R). There's speculation that these tiny beans are the result of a spontaneous cross of an heirloom Yemenis Mokha with a Maui Typica. Because of the origin and tiny size, we roast this coffee a bit differently to bring out the full - bodied, chocolatey tasting notes. Now it's a favorite of those who prefer slightly darker roasts, often receiving customer reviews like this: "While all of the coffee we've ordered from your site is excellent, the best of the best coffee is Maui Mokka" It's sometimes assumed that a larger bean size will augment cup quality - the bigger the bean, the better the quality. We haven't found this to be the truth. In fact, Mokka is the contrarian of the coffee world: these tiny beans captured coveted first place in the 2014 Hawaii Cupping Competition, becoming the best Hawaiian coffee in commercial division entrants. Maui Mokka beans are not only petite but are also differently shaped. They are somewhat roundish, like pearls - a departure from the typical oval - shaped coffee beans most know. Because the Mokka coffee beans are so small, they can be quite challenging to harvest and roast. Yields can also be light. So, why grow Maui Mokka? Simple: it's elegant, with notes of chocolate, rose, and baking spice. | 100% Maui Mokka Coffee | French Press | 5 lb. | Medium Dark Roast | Big Island Coffee Roasters
