Waihuena Farm

Low-key counter-service cafe offering smoothies, acai bowls, hot cocoa, coffee & chocolate bars.

Our farm is up a small rural road, visitation is by reservation only. Indulge in an immersive chocolate experience at Honolii Orchards, a family-owned cacao farm nestled amidst the lush landscapes of Hawaii's Big Island, just 5 minutes outside of Hilo. Embark on a guided tour of our fertile cacao groves, where you'll witness the delicate process of cacao cultivation. Afterward, our expert chocolatier will lead you through an exquisite craft chocolate tasting, showcasing the rich flavors and intricate nuances of single-origin Hawaiian chocolate. Unveiling the nuances of chocolate, much akin to wine, this tasting invites you to refine your palate and discover the diverse expressions of Hawaiian cacao.
