 Great Kona coffee Jul 12, 2010
This coffee is wonderful! Great flavor and it arrived in fresh condition. The price, as compared to other Kona brands, is also good. I am ordering more.
Great Flavor May 11, 2010
First time I had tried Hawaiian coffee and I really liked it. Ity had a nice bold flavor and I absolutely could taste the difference as compared to my regular coffee. You will pay more for it but it was worth it.
 Good Joe, but... Apr 16, 2010
I purchased this coffee specifically for use with my French Press as I had been told that coffee from the Kona Coast was "the one". I picked the dark roast because I love a good strong, dark cup of coffee... Although this was a good cup of coffee, I did not find it to be "dark" or particularly "strong". It may be just me, maybe I'm brewing it wrong, as I am a novice when it comes to the French Press process as well as Kona coffee itself. I have yet to use it with my drip coffee maker, but am planning on purchasing another pound of whole bean for that purpose. The verdict is still out.
Kona Convert Apr 13, 2010
Normally I do not drink "Dark" roast coffee since it frequently has a bitter, burnt taste. However, it was a Valentine's Day present for my wife who favors a darker roast. I was very pleasantly surprised the first morning we brewed the Hawaii Roasters Dark Roast. It was very smooth and enjoyable; not at all what I was expecting from dark roasted coffee.
I plan to re-order enough dark roast for both of us the next time.

 Disappointed Apr 07, 2010
I took a chance on this based on the overwhelmingly positive reviews that I read. The package arrived within three days of ordering, and the coffee was sealed in a standard vacuum-sealed bag. I opened the bag and noticed that the coffee smelled stale. Normally fresh-roasted coffee has a certain "life" to the scent, but these beans smelled as if they had been on a shelf for a while. I brewed the coffee and the flavor was similarly uninspiring. The coffee was mellow, as expected, but the flavor was flat. I have had high quality Kona in the past, and this sample is clearly inferior to my previous experience.
This is the first time I have troubled to review a product sold by Amazon. I have no previous experience with this coffee roaster, and since others found their coffee to be to their liking, it is possible that something went wrong with this particular batch. I am pleased to report that Amazon has refunded me for this purchase.
