River Moon Kona Waves – Medium Roast Whole Bean Coffee, Hawaiian Kona Blend, Smooth & Complex, 100% Arabica

Kona Waves is River Moon's signature Hawaiian blend — smooth, exquisitely complex, and built for any time of day. The Kona beans at the heart of this blend are entirely hand-picked on the tropical slopes of the Mount Hualalai volcano on the Big Island of Hawaii, sustainably farmed by the Strawn family at Kona Earth Farm. Blended with the finest 100% Arabica beans from around the world and small-batch roasted to perfection, every cup delivers a smooth, full-flavored medium roast with a turbo-charged complexity you won't find in mass-market coffee. Available in whole bean and ground. Packaged fresh in a one-way valve bag to lock in aroma and flavor. Makes an exceptional drip, pour over, or French press cup. Non-GMO. Roasted and packaged in the USA.

Absolutely worth the price! Will be buying again.

This coffee is honestly incredible. I was crossing my fingers, because it’s not as cheap as a bag from the grocery store, but wow. So worth it. It’s hard to find good Kona coffee in Minnesota, and this is the stuff. Rich, smooth, with so much depth. Amazing aroma. I’m in love. Will definitely be buying again! (Originally posted on Amazon)

Great flavor at a reasonable price.

My favorite coffee. I've tried other Kona Coffees. This one is the one I've settled on. I'm not such a coffee connoisseur that I was willing to pay some of the higher prices. I really like this one. (Originally posted on Amazon)

A surprising blend, as reviewed by a long time seeker of good affordable Kona.

Normally I wouldn't buy a "Kona blend", but I had skimmed over the page too fast and thought it sounded of high potential. That being said, of the four other bags of pure Kona coffees I have, this stood up to all of them - I've been searching for the flavor I experienced on the big island years back. I hate to say that a blend actually tasted good - but it does!Now, that being what it is, I would like to know what percentage of the blend is actually from Kona.You state that the rest of the blend is from, "globally sourced, artisan shade grown, high altitude coffee beans" - please give me an idea of where these mystery beans came from. I'm just trying to understand better how a "blend" can turn out so well (compared to all the so-so blends I used to try samples of from the stores).I don't need your secrets, just an idea where these "artisan" beans are from.

Not the best

It's an okay coffee for being Kona, but to be honest it's not the best. Just something about it has a bitter aftertaste. I only drink Kona coffee. I know It should be smooth. (Originally posted on Amazon)

Frequently asked questions

When is my coffee roasted?

Every order is roasted after it’s placed. Your coffee is not sitting in inventory waiting to ship.

How fresh will it be when it arrives?

Typically within a few days of roasting. You’re getting coffee at peak freshness, not weeks or months old.

How long does shipping take?

Orders are usually roasted and shipped within 1–2 business days. Delivery timing depends on your location, but most U.S. orders arrive within a few days after shipment.

Do you ship nationwide?

Yes. We ship to all 50 states.

Which blend should I start with?

If you’re unsure:

Gaia → balanced, everyday coffee
Hemera → brighter, more expressive
Epona → darker, fuller-bodied
Kona Waves → smooth, mellow, premium option

Should I order whole bean or ground?

Whole bean is best for freshness if you have a grinder. If not, choose ground for your brew method and it will be ready to use.

Which coffees work best for espresso?

LUCINA is designed for espresso. EPONA and Fade to Black also hold up well for a stronger, darker shot.

Do your coffees work with milk?

Yes. Gaia and Epona are especially good with milk. Darker roasts will cut through milk more; lighter roasts are best black or with a small amount.

Which blend should I start with?

If you’re unsure:

Gaia → balanced, everyday coffee
Hemera → brighter, more expressive
Epona → darker, fuller-bodied
Kona Waves → smooth, mellow, premium option
