About Us USA Coffee Company was established with the goal in mind to roast ONLY coffee grown in the USA. It is a fact that only 1% of the world's coffee is grown in Hawaii, and anyone not lucky enough to visit the beautiful State of Hawaii most likely doesn't know that some of the best coffee in the world is becoming a major crop on the Hawaiian Islands replacing the pineapple which went "south of the border". Beware of coffee labeling that says either Kona or Hawaiian Blend. In most cases you will not find more than 15% Hawaiian beans included....But...USA Coffee Company blends are 100% grown in Hawaii. As you can see, all of our products in addition to the Coffee are also Made in the USA. Today, more than ever, we MUST BUY AMERICAN. Our children's future depends upon that. In our efforts to produce conventional certified Hawaiian in an environmentally friendly manner, we have developed farming practices that return the harvesting and processing byproducts back into the soil. The fresh coffee skins can be used for weed control around the trees or, if left to breakdown, as mulch to replenish nutrients back into the soil. In addition, we recycle the coffee wash water. The waste water containing fermented sugar water is filtered of most of the solid matter and aerated prior to being used for irrigation. Most important of all is the green waste from pruning nearly of coffee. All branches and twigs are mulched on and recycled year after year; not dumped in landfills. We will continue to farm our specialty coffee by recycling byproducts that are biodegradable. Ted Massinello President |
