Big Island Coffee Roasters is set to open its flagship cafe, tasting room and roastery in Hilo, Hawaii.
The new café will open at 76 Kalanianaole Street in Hiloon on 12 August 2023.
Big Island Coffee Roasters co-founder Brandon Damitz said: “Since 2010, we've worked to raise the bar, scale the reach and change the conversation on Hawai'i-grown coffees. By focusing on quality and community, we're improving Hawaii's farm sustainability and agricultural livelihoods.
“Although we've helped resorts open cafes, this will be our first. It's the only of its kind on Hawai'i Island.”
Powered by renewable energy, the new Big Island Coffee Roasters outlet will offer 100% Kona coffees, Hawaiian coffees and espresso bites.
It will also serve iced Māmaki tea and Hawaiian coffees served on nitro.
Big Island Coffee Roasters co-founder Kelleigh Stewart said: “We began as a family farm and mill in Puna that focused on small batches and unique coffee varieties.
“As we've grown, we've been able to work with a growing list of excellent farmers and provide the resources they need to continue planting and try new flavour profiles.
“Speciality coffee production is truly an artisan process blending art and science and we've enjoyed sharing that via our digital channels. Now, we're delighted to invite our followers, customers and members in for an excellent cup of coffee.”
