is a coffee roasting company with one
seemingly simple goal: to produce the finest, freshest, most skillfully

Like many "simple" ambitions, ours requires an ongoing
dedication to quality, standards and knowledge. We hope our coffees
and teas reflect our commitment. What sets us apart?

| Arianna Farms Ono Kona Coffee was the winner of the Kona Coffee Festival's Coffee Crown Competition this year. Only 45 bags of the coffee was produced and we are only one of two companies where it can be found. No doubt Kona is expensive - $29.99 a pound - but you can be assured of it being 100% the real thing, and the top pick in the competition this year. |

The 2007 crop has been sold out so none is available at this moment. However, 2008 new crop coffee is in stock. Read more... |

Back from Colombia - March, 2009 - We are just back from Pereira, Colombia where we served as jurors at the 7th annual Colombia Cup of Excellence. The international jury consisted of coffee pros from around the world and concluded a multi week competition. Coffees that scored 84 points and above will be auctioned on 4/23. Four of the coffees scored above 90 points, a difficult achievement when rated by this widespread group, earning them the coveted Presidential Award from the CoE. |
