About Delvin Navarro
Coffee farming runs pretty deeps in the Navarro family. In fact, Delvin’s grandpa-in-law was actually one of the first farmer to grow coffee in the Kau region. Inspired by many of the older generation of coffee farmers, Delvin decided to pickup coffee farming as well. His journey in coffee farming started off working for Olson Trust, a private landowner that is invested into Hawaiian agriculture, conservation and sustainability. During the 9 years of working for Olson, Delvin earned invaluable experience in the agricultural aspect of growing coffee and producing quality crop. Despite this, it has always been on Delvin’s heart to further the coffee farming legacy of his family and to tend to the farm of Shawnette’s Grandfather. So in 2013, Navarro Farm was founded and the Navarro’s farm’s brand, Hawaiian Monarch Coffee, was created.
Like many coffee farmers starting off, Delvin started tending for his farm by pulling random coffee starts right out of the ground and planting them in neat rows. After many years of hard work, Hawaiian Monarch Coffee now produces top quality coffee that includes a whole range of coffee varietals which includes pacamara, red caturra, typica and red/yellow catuai. What really stood out to us when we first met Delvin was that not only is he a really hard worker, but he is very open-minded and isn’t afraid to try out new things. Along with maintaining his 17 acres farm single-handedly year-around, Devlin also experiments with different processing types such as natural process and honey process. Combining different processing types with the different coffee cultivar Delvin has at his disposal, he’s able to produce unique terroir that showcase the potential of Kau coffee. Delvin hopes that his work will inspire the new generation of farmers that are rising up here on the Big Island.
Having spent time touring the Navarro farm with Delvin and Shawnette, we were excited to purchase and showcase their coffee here at White Nene Coffee Roasters. We hope that this is a beginning of a long relationship and we feel very blessed to be working with such like-minded individuals with a passion for high quality Hawaiian coffee.
