We are always buying Hawaiian coffee for both friends and neighbors. Hawaiian coffee is very good and people love getting it.
Aloha
I also love ‘Cracy Shirts’, and they are well made. I still have a polo I bought in 1994, whose color was a result of the warehouse flooding, An original ‘RED DIRT’ shirt with ‘Older than Dirt’ embroidered on the left chest. It truly now represents my mid-octogenarian age!!
Very happy to hear about Common Ground, and looking forward to our visit ‘back to’ Kauai for 3 weeks in late August, early September.
You totally neglected to mention my husband’s & my favorite Aloha Wear…
“JAMS WORLD”. We have been purchasing their fashions for 25 years. We live in Florida & these clothes are the absolute BEST for traveling (lightweight & no wrinkles) on cruises & our trips to Hawaii. They pack fantastically. We get compliments EVERY TIME we wear them! Please include them.
Mahalo!
This is a great article BOH. Your suggestions are spot on. In my 17 years traveling to the islands, I’ve never gone wrong w/ coffee as gift[s] for my fam & friends. Just having the island’s & the roaster’s name on the bag is like a novelty.
Cheers☕ & ALOHA!!! 🙂
Hi Sudesh.
Thanks for the Hawaii coffee feedback.
Aloha.
I like to bundle small gifts in Lauhala boxes either plain or with a ribbon of Hawaiian fabric. Hawaiian Rubber Stamps are fun for crafters. Walmart has a great selection from Rubber Stamp Plantation. Sugarfina candy store has really nice Aloha boxes for their candy; it’s a great souvenir post-candy. Mint tins or boxes with Hawaiian motifs are fun and collectible. I agree with others that the varieties of Hawaiian salts (Ono brand for instance) are great for cooks or weekend grill chefs. For those who crave chi chi dango or mochi made from scratch, Mochiko flour is hard to get here in the midwest so a box is a golden treat for the sweets or Mochiko chicken cravings. NOH seasoning packets or Haupia mix are another lauhala box filler I have included. Finally, Hawaiian wrapping tissue makes gifts a stand-out at parties. Lots of patterns are available at places like Longs.
Is there any good swap meets on Maui? that’s equivalent or close to the aloha stadium swap meet on Oahu?
Yes ! Several of my friend think that Lydgate Farms make the best honey ever ! I always bring some home for them. Also, we like Kauai coffee some much that if we don’t bring enough home, we order it online.
We are in Kauai this week. Thanks for your suggestions, where to shop for gifts.
On Kauai, McPhees Bees honey is to die for! I especially love the “lavender infused” honey and the “golden elixir”. And also you have to visit “Kauai Gourmet Nuts” in Koloa. They have a wonderful assortment of nuts and nut butters that I like to bring home for gifts.
Shortbread Cookies from CANDIES BIG ISLAND….best cookies ever!!
