Is there a place for “Best”?

"Kona Coffee is the best because we have the perfect weather conditions for growing coffee & the soil is perfect"

Bam. This is what they depend on. Simply the weather, but not the human intervention. I've learned that Greenwell brought the coffee to the international market and it seemed as if he dictated its worth and created the standard for picking and farming practices and that's why it made itself known, most especially in American market.

But when I learn about this after I've listened to the Terroir topic by Lucia Solis, I've thought about this more and questioned the way people think about their coffee. Honestly, Kona coffee isn't the best I've tasted. A Kenyan Coffee or one from Honduras stood out for me, and it's what I consider the "Best", but in these situations, there's so many to blame with the cup that I made, that I never blame the soil or weather conditions of the country. 

With these given, SCA standards and Q Grading, I stand by how I think about coffee from different origins having its own identity, and giving all credit to farmers with their farming practices and procedures or producers. Many coffees can be equally good, but I don't think that none of them should be ranked or marketed as the "Best". Bruh. Taste is subjective.
