夏威夷岛旅游夏威夷旅游攻略自由行夏威夷岛旅游最佳季节

背景介绍：

夏威夷咖啡，很多人马上会想到柯纳（Kona）咖啡。柯纳咖啡产于夏威夷岛，又称大岛（The Big Island)。夏威夷群岛的咖啡种植可追溯到1810年代，而大岛，包括柯纳地区的咖啡种植则始于1820年代。1840年代末的加州淘金潮(Gold Rush)使夏威夷咖啡的产量在1849到1850年间增长了七倍，至此咖啡作为一种主要经济作物也在夏威夷扎稳了脚跟。1866年，加州萨克拉门托每日联合报的记者马克·吐温在访问夏威夷王国时作出了如下的评价：“我觉得柯纳咖啡比其他任何一种咖啡都有更丰富的味道，无论它的产地和名称。”

夏威夷咖啡并非徒有虚名。火山地质，云雾缭绕，日夜温差，小农场精工细作，等等因素，都给柯纳咖啡的品质打下了基础，让我们见证了今天的柯纳。

双语阅读部分：

Hawaii is the only coffee producing area in developed countries. This has an impact on the economy and marketing of coffee. The communication between the producers and the consumers is very successful, often linking the tour of the island with the coffee. Many coffee professionals, however, think that the quality of the coffee here is not commensurate with the price.

夏威夷是唯一一个位于发达国家的咖啡产区。这对咖啡的经济与营销造成了影响。此地的生产者与消费者的沟通十分成功，时常将岛上观光行程与咖啡衔接。不过许多咖啡专业人士认为此地咖啡质量恐怕与价格并不相称。

Coffee came to Hawaii in 1817, but it was initially unsuccessful. In 1825, the governor of Oahu, set sail from Europe by way of Brazil and brought back some coffee saplings. The seedlings began to thrive and spread throughout the island. Bourbon coffee was introduced into the big island in 1828, and large scale planting in the Kauai Island (Kauai) began in 1836. However, the coffee wilt of Kauai island Hanalei Valley coffee planting in 1858 because of aphid or beetles (Coffee Blight) caused by the attack and The whole army was wiped out. The only surviving Kona area with only large islands.

咖啡在1817年来到夏威夷，不过最初种植得并不成功。1825年欧胡岛( Oahu ) 总督Chief Boki自欧洲启航，途经巴西，带回了一些咖啡树苗。这些树苗后来开始茁壮生长，遍布全岛。波旁种咖啡大约是在1828年传入大岛，在考艾岛( Kauai)大规模种植则始于1836年。不过，考艾岛Hanalei Valley的咖啡种植却在1858年因蚜虫或蠹虫造成的咖啡枯萎病( Coffee Blight ) 的袭击而全军覆没。唯一存活下来的仅有大岛的Kona产区。

In the late nineteenth Century, the coffee industry attracted immigrants from China and Japan to work in the plantations on the island. In 1920s, the Filipinos came to work in the coffee garden during the harvest, and in the spring, they worked in the cane garden.

19世纪晚期，咖啡产业先后吸引了来自中国和日本的移民，来到岛上在种植园内工作。20世纪20年代，菲律宾人在采收期间会来到咖啡园工作，春天则在甘蔗园做工。

However, until 1980s, when the sugar industry was less profitable, coffee began to become an important economic crop. It has also triggered a coffee boom in Hawaii.

不过，一直要到20世纪80年代，当制糖产业出现利润不足的情况后，咖啡才开始成为重要的经济作物。这也引发了全夏威夷的咖啡热潮。

This is the most famous production area in Hawaii and is famous all over the world; the Kona production area is located on the big island. Because of the long history of coffee planting, the prestige of this area has been very high. But the success also brings the abuse of name. Now the regulations on the island stipulate that all Kona coffee must indicate the actual mixing amount from Kona, and the trademark "100% Kona" is strictly controlled. Kona Kai of California has tried every means to protect its trademark and name, but in 1996, the company"s "Kona Coffee" was found guilty of bean from Costa Rica and its management. In recent years, the area began to be attacked by the beetle of coffee fruit. A series of measures have been made on the island to fight this pest. Although we can see some success, many people worry that this will make the price of Kona coffee less and less affinity.

这是夏威夷境内最著名的产区，在全球赫赫有名 ；Kona产区位于大岛。因悠久的咖啡种植历史，此区声望一直很高。不过成功也带来名称被滥用的情况，现今岛上的法规规定所有Kona咖啡都必须标示来自Kona的实际混调量，“100% Kona”的商标则被严加管控。加利福尼亚州的Kona Kai公司曾想尽办法保护其商标与名称，不过1996年该公司的“Kona Coffee”却被发现豆子来自哥斯达黎加，公司管理层因此被判有罪。近几年来，此区开始受到咖啡果小蠹的袭击。岛上制定了一系列措施对抗此病虫害，虽然可以见到一些成效，但是许多人担心这样会使Kona咖啡的价格变得越来越不具亲和力。

There is no doubt that the system of production and marketing of products produced in developed countries is very sound. Coffee is most likely to be traced to a single coffee garden. Generally speaking, the cafe roasted its own coffee and sold it directly to consumers or tourists. More than half of the rest of the country is sold to the United States.

毫无疑问，产于发达国家的产品产销履历制度十分健全。咖啡多半可追溯至单一咖啡园。一般来说，咖啡农会自行烘焙咖啡，直接卖给消费者或观光客。其余多半销往美国。
