Doutor Coffee/Mauka Meadows
Doutor Coffee/Mauka Meadows. Holualoa Mauka appellation
Maura Meadows is without a doubt the most beautiful coffee farm we have visited. Doctor Coffee is a Japanese company with coffee shops throughout Eastern Asia. The Mauka Meadows farm provides their Kona beans. They have created a beautiful tropical garden for visitors to experience.
For a $5 per person suggested fee, using the honor system, you can walk down through a beautiful estate featuring rolling meadows, tropical plants and flowers, fruit and coffee trees, to a gazebo with an infinity pool that appears to flow off the edge of the earth.
The walk begins in this beautiful sweeping meadow bordered by tropical foliage. It continues through many wonders as you descend. This is an easy walk but it is a constant descent and parts of it are steep.
The grounds are very well kept up. One of the highlights was this vine tunnel.
As you near the bottom you get spectacular Kona views from the steep vantage point.
And finally there is coffee tasting with the cooling breeze coming off the infinity pool. The hostess will give you a ride back up to the parking area whenever you are ready.
Highly recommended for those who can navigate an easy hike. No reservations necessary.
