Frequently asked questions

Where is Kuaiwi Farm and what do they grow?

What happens on a Kuaiwi Farm tour?

The tour walks through the cacao orchard to show how chocolate grows, then moves into the tasting room for single-origin chocolate made on the farm.

Is Kuaiwi Farm organic?

Yes — Kuaiwi Farm has been certified organic since 1977, which is unusually long-standing for a Hawaii cacao operation.

Can I buy products without taking the tour?

The farm has a farm shop where chocolate, coffee, macadamia nuts, and dried apple bananas are sold. Hours can vary, so confirm before driving out to Captain Cook.

Do I need to book the tour ahead of time?

Kuaiwi Farm is a small certified-organic operation at 82-6155 D Rd in Captain Cook, so contact them directly to arrange a tour rather than dropping in.

What sets Kuaiwi Farm apart from other Kona-area chocolate stops?

Kuaiwi combines four crops — cacao, coffee, mac nuts, and apple bananas — on one certified-organic property, so a single visit covers more of Hawaii's signature flavors than most chocolate-only farms.
