As described by the founder of the Handmademarket,
"Featured Artisan ... Tropical Temptations
Coffee lovers rejoice!!! Yes, there is such a thing as 'artisan' coffee and we've stumbled upon what we think is the best 100% Kona Coffee available locally and we're so excited to introduce you to Tropical Temptations, the company that will be bringing it to you at the Christmas 2011 HandMade Market!!"
This 100% Kona coffee is not only pesticide free, but it is the least acidic coffee grown in the world! This means no bitter aftertaste, no upset in your tummy ... only a totally pleasant taste. You'll find this to be a rich tasting coffee with a slight hint of chocolate, velvety smooth and good anytime of day. What gives this coffee its uniqueness is the fact that it's grown at an elevation of 2800 feet above the Pacific ocean in exactly the right micro climate conditions, in volcanic soil and is fed only the rainwater that falls daily in the region. Kona coffee receives a daily dose of Hawaiian sunshine and enough afternoon cloud to keep the growing climate just so! Tropical Temptations' feature product is 100% Pure KONA coffee ... grown only in the region of Kona, Hawaii. This amazing coffee estate produces coffee that is hands-on from seed to cup - truly a labour of love.. This coffee estate has planted tropical fruit trees amongst the coffee trees to attract the birds and keep insects away from the coffee trees. Few changes have occurred in the original methods of coffee production, as most tasks are still completed by hand or by nature. bag will bring you approximately 100 cups of pure, delicious coffee. Also, be sure to try the Tropical Temptations "Maui Gold Natural Cane Sugar," an exceptional pesticide-free natural sugar grown on the island of Maui! This cane sugar is one that our bodies can process, and you will find trace elements of important minerals such as phosphorus, magnesium and calcium. Totally off grid, this plantation even produces their own steam energy to assist in production. In addition we feature several products that are local to the islands, Macadamia Nuts, Macadamia nut butter, Organic Aloha Seasonings and Sea Salts and Hawaii Island Gourmet hand made chocolate bark. We take seriously the concept of shopping local and promoting local farms both here at home and from afar…after all can you imagine life without REAL Coffee and all the other tropical goodies we've come to love and appreciate
