Atiu Coffee Factory
Atiu Island Coffee
A family workshop continuing the coffee-growing tradition of the 19th century, where you can follow the process from picking and roasting to brewing and taste the island's coffee.
In the 19th century, Atiu grew Arabica coffee on a large scale, but the plantations later fell into disuse. Local families restored wild coffee trees into plantations, and process the beans by hand, including hulling, drying and roasting. Visitors can hear talks, taste fresh coffee and buy island-grown beans, which are a popular souvenir. The workshop lies near the villages of the central highlands. Opening hours are not fixed, so book in advance through your accommodation or the visitor information office.
