Rugged Terrain

The North Shore of Molokai in the Hawaiian Islands is an extreme landscape—cliffs that plunge more than 2,000 feet into the crashing sea. At the bottom of these cliffs, a small peninsula juts like a note thrust under a door.

Only the most courageous of souls know this peninsula and the switchback trail that connects it with "topside" Molokai. For generations now, Hawaiian muleskinners have traversed this terrain on the backs of their sharp-witted, sure-footed mules.

A natural-dried, dark-roasted bean that's 100% Molokai grown, our original Muleskinner coffee is named for the landscape whose essence it bears.

A natural-dried arabica coffee grown exclusively in the Hawaiian Islands roasted to a rich, dark finish. A hearty coffee for the true coffee lover, with a husky, yet smooth, full-bodied taste.

Cupping Profile
2008 Cupping Profile Blind Assessment: A deeply sweet, lavender note dominates the distinctive aroma, with a backgrounded heavy, pruny fruit. In the cup the prune-toned fruit moves forward, with a nod toward dark chocolate and a continued suggestion of lavender. Full body, low acidity, slightly astringent mouthfeel. A coffee that seems exotically hearty at one moment and can seem sullenly heavy at the next. Who Should Drink It: Those interested in exotic dry-processed profiles. If I felt comfortable giving high ratings for uniqueness alone, this coffee would merit a rating over 90.
