BEST Coffee Shop in the State of Hawaii 2022 — FOOD & WINE Magazine Koana is an artist-owned Specialty Black Coffee shop in the old Mountain View Village, halfway point between Hilo and Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park. We serve a different style of coffee, unlike most espresso/sugary dairy based shops. At Koana, we have gathered the best selection of Hawaii Specialty Coffee from award-winning farms and roasters, premium locally grown and produced chocolate and tea to share with you via handcrafted pour over methods. We promote and support local farmers and producers, and our passion is to share their creations with our ohana. Come to experience what we have to offer from our island!
