Kona coffee was not very popular until the late 19th century when plantation owners gave their lands to workers on lease whose cultivation resulted in large coffee crops of high quality.
There are two principal varieties of kona coffee bean, known as Type 1 and Type 2 beans. Type 1 beans are flat on the sides and rounded on the other side; two beans are acquired from one coffee fruit. Type 2 beans are rounded and one bean occurs in each coffee fruit. Taking in account different properties such as size and moisture etc, each of these types of kona coffee bean are then divided into subtypes such as Kona Prime, Kona Fancy, and Kona Number 1 etc.
