Description
Kauai Coffee got its start in the early 1800s as McBryde Sugar Company, one of the first sugar growers in Hawaii. The transformation from McBryde Sugar Company to Kauai Coffee in 1987 represents Hawaii's largest diversified agricultural project in the past 50 years.

The Kauai Coffee venture experienced a severe setback in 1992, when Hurricane Iniki inflicted $8.5 million in damages to the coffee crop. The future of Kauai Coffee, and all of Kauai, looked bleak. Fortunately, both made a comeback, and in 1996, Kauai Coffee's harvest exceeded the volume of coffee produced by the entire Kona region.

Hours
Walk the meandering path beneath the shade of the coffee trees and learn about Kauai Coffee, our history, and the coffee grown on our estate. Interpretive signs identify the five different coffee varietals as well as the entire coffee process from initial blossoming, through harvesting and processing, to the final roasting.

Guided walking tours are available at 10am, 1pm and 3pm.

Those who would rather watch a video presentation can do so on the comfort of our lanai, with samples of our coffees within easy reach. It may, however, be difficult to keep your eyes focused on the screen when the view over the treetops to the bright blue of the ocean competes for your attention!
