From humble beginnings on the slopes of Kona to award-winning coffee estates, Buddha’s Cup is a true family venture fueled by passion, purpose, and pride. Meet the people behind the beans, explore our journey, and discover what makes our ohana so special.
Buddha’s Cup began with one farm and a dream — to share the spirit of aloha through exceptional Kona coffee. Today, our family-run Buddha’s Sanctuary nurtures five estate labels across 80+ acres, all grown in harmony with the land. From seed to cup, we’re committed to a thriving, biodiverse ecosystem and a tradition of excellence that goes far beyond coffee.
Our Buddha’s Cup family cultivates 100% High Mountain Grown Kona Coffee and Tea on the Big Island of Hawai‘i. What began as a single farm has grown into a sanctuary of five award-winning estates, each rooted in our deep respect for the land and our commitment to quality from seed to cup.
Come visit us and experience it firsthand with a one-of-a-kind tour of our Five-Farm Plantation Visitor Center, where you can walk the land, meet the team, and taste the difference that heart and heritage make. Don’t forget to explore and shop our full selection of estate coffees, teas, and more online.

At Buddha’s Sanctuary, we take pride in crafting world-class Kona coffee, but true excellence takes more than passion. That’s why we rely on certified Q Graders—the coffee industry’s gold standard for sensory evaluation. These experts assess every harvest for flavor, balance, and aroma to ensure each bean meets the highest standards. Guided by expertise and a commitment to quality, we deliver an extraordinary coffee experience from seed to cup.
From Kona Cupping wins to global medals, our estate coffees have earned top honors year after year for taste, quality, and craftsmanship.
