Asly,
You have Kau Coffee out there? We may have it here now too, I haven't payed much attention the past 3 years.
That doesn't surprise me though about the flavor considering the soils relative to Kona (Captain Cook region particularly) (the flows are typically newer in Kau and there's less dirt available (not counting South Point, Pahala and Naalehu).
I do believe they will match and yet they could possibly even exceed Kona grown prices someday.
Puna may be restricted with regard to acres available to pull it off though. It will be interesting to see how it pans out in the next 10 years or so.
E ho'a'o no i pau kuhihewa.
