Kauai Coffee is the largest coffee farm in the United States and we visit at least once during each trip. Kona coffee on the Big Island is probably more exotic with its very small farms and hand picking, but this place is impressive just because of its size. I have noticed you can sometimes purchase Kauai Coffee in your local Costco, but that must be some kind of blend and the varietals are available here.
COVID has changed the experience. No guided tours. Fewer pots out for sampling. Someone now pours the samples for you. Fewer food items in the eating area. No bench seating for the informational videos. Still, the visitor center was open and a self-guided walking tour was available. I had read some time ago that the center had been shut down and only mail order access to the coffee was available. The signs that guide the walking tour now have QR codes that provide an expanded version of what appears on the signs.
