The winners of the Coffee Cup by SIAL, the famous coffee contest held during SIAL Canada 2013 in Toronto, were judged by Specialty Coffee Association of America rules as the jury members selected the best coffees submitted by roasters and producers from all over the world.
This is one of more than a dozen awards won by the Cloud Forest Estate, which produces the highest-elevation coffee grown in the state and is the largest organic coffee farm in Hawaii.
