UCC Hawaii

UCC Hawaii is a coffee estate in Holualoa on the Kona slopes. It's plantation-style, with big windows and decks looking out over the coast. It's a bit cooler up there. Admission is free, and no reservation is needed for the shop and café. Parking is easy.

They grow and roast 100% Kona on the estate. The hour-long Roastmaster Tour lets you roast your own beans and design the label. Free tastings include the Estate blend and a Whiskey Barrel Aged coffee. The affogato with Kona coffee ice cream is a must. Beans are sold on-site.
