Product Details Return to Top Tasting Notes America's own coffee!We blend Kona coffee -- grown exclusively on the big island of Hawaii -- with other high-elevation beans, carefully selecting coffees from other origins to complement Kona's delicate aroma and flavor. The result is a blend of exquisite balance and harmony, perfect for any palate or occasion. Rating: 87 Points (out of 100)The aroma displays a simple, pure coffee character: tartly sweet, chocolate-toned fruit and a hint of flowers...At both serving sizes quite sweet, gently tart, with continued delicate chocolate-toned fruit notes. Nice persistence of chocolate and flowers in the finish, although this delicate, lyric coffee stiffens and simplifies a bit as the cup cools. – Kenneth Davids, CoffeeReview.com, April 2007 Notes From Origin With its elegant simplicity and balance, we tend to think of Kona coffee as a haiku in a cup... it speaks volumes with very few words. We roast our Kona with great care so its aromas and flavors are not masked by the smoke and thunder of a heavy flame. Kona is the most unique coffee-growing area of any in the world: low altitude, high latitude, with the highest labor rates of any other coffee-farming area. Fortunately, Kona has enjoyed generations of committed farmers who use the best traditional techniques - customized to this area - and who fight against any compromise in quality.

This is the best "regular" flavor k-cup I've tried. There is not even a hint of bitterness, and the flavor is very good. My only suggestion would be to make it just a little bit stronger. It's not weak, but I don't think i'd call it "Extra Bold".Gift:NoComment on this review1/18/2010 5.0Great cup of coffee By SeaDogfrom San Antonio, TXAbout Me Average JoeProsAttractive Mouthfeel/BodyNot BitterSmooth TasteConsBest UsesSingle-Cup/PodsComments about Green Mountain Coffee K-Cup Kona 10% Blend Extra Bold:A great cup of coffee in the morning is to be had with this product.

It has a great robust flavor, without the harshness, nor bitterness of many other bold coffees. I use the travel mug setting on my Keurig, so that it is just a bit softer. I like to use natural Maui sugar to sweeten it; they are made for one another.Gift:NoComment on this review10/17/2009 5.0My Favorite by far!!!
