Sold out! New crop available in December - or join Hana Hou Club.

The North Shore of Moloka‘i is an extreme landscape—cliffs that plunge more than 2,000 feet into the crashing sea. At the bottom of these cliffs, a small peninsula juts like a note thrust under a door. Only the most courageous of souls know this peninsula and the switchback trail that connects it with “topside” Moloka‘i. For generations now, Hawaiian muleskinners have traversed this terrain on the backs of their sharp-witted, sure-footed mules.

A natural-dried, dark-roasted bean that’s 100% Moloka‘i grown, our original Muleskinner coffee is named for the landscape whose essence it bears.

Customer Comments

"My package of your 100% Moloka'i Muleskinner beans arrived an hour ago. Amazing that little package arrived here so quickly :) ... These beans are absolutely fantastic! I will do what I can to help spread the word here about them in my area. This coffee is superior (and I haven't tasted it yet) to the top products of several international coffee marketers I have tried. ... This coffee surpasses (in my opinion) the popular Kona that fetches such a price on the world market. This is my honest assessment. I'm not trying to get a job :)"

BLIND ASSESSMENT: A deeply sweet, lavender note dominates the distinctive aroma, with a backgrounded heavy, pruny fruit. In the cup the prune-toned fruit moves forward, with a nod toward dark chocolate and a continued suggestion of lavender. Full body, low acidity, slightly astringent mouthfeel. A coffee that seems exotically hearty at one moment and can seem sullenly heavy at the next.

WHO SHOULD DRINK IT: Those interested in exotic dry-processed profiles. If I felt comfortable giving high ratings for uniqueness alone, this coffee would merit a rating over 90.
