Mauna Kea Tea - HONOKAA

My wife, our 20 and 22-year-old daughters, and I visited Kimberly, one of the owners of the restaurant. We tasted tea, discussed the farm, and talked about life and work in this part of Hawaii. Kimberly's daughter even surprised us with flowers! The tea was fantastic, but what truly made our visit special was learning about the farm, the owners' way of life, and their philosophy. They have created a peaceful atmosphere, and it was a joy to be a part of it for a few hours.

My wife and I and our 20, 22 year old daughters had a great visit with Kimberly, one of the owners. We tasted tea, talked about the farm, and talked about what it’s like to live and work in this part of Hawaii. We were also treated to a visit by her daughter who brought us all flowers! The tea is excellent. What made the visit outstanding was hearing about the farm, the way of life, and the mindset of the owners. They have created a serene space, and it was wonderful to be part of it for a few hours.

My husband and I visited the farm in April and had a wonderful time. We had no trouble finding it, but we double-checked the directions before losing signal. We scheduled our visit in advance as they only offer tours a few times a week, so be sure to call ahead.

Absolutely loved our visit in this teefarm! we decided to buy the tour and we are so glad that we have made it! taka was an amazing guide through this experience! the process of growing, harvesting and transforming the raw leaves into a refined tee is fascinating. the focus on maximizing the use of natural processes, if possible, is inspiring and impressive. the landscape is beautifully lush and green with a lot of trees and plants on the plot. taka explained the process thoroughly and answered our many asking. the viewing of the being was great, but the highlight was the wonderful teezeremonie we shared with taka. the tee was delicious and the environment was calm and soothing. it was a truly beautiful visit! we want to share this with our other tea enthusiast friends.

Excellent green and a wonderful time during the tasting experience. they take them through their hole farm and explain the process at the top down, which are variable and how they think about their production from a holistic standpoint. more fascinating way to spend a few hours. these young are the best!
