ROYAL KONA COFFEE Whole Bean - 100% Hawaiian Kona Whole Bean Coffee Medium Roast, 7 oz

Got this as a birthday present and it was great. Item shipped as described. The coffee was not acidic, and it had a great taste and great aroma. This is definitely great due to my issues with acid reflux, this was a very smooth coffee and did not upset it at all. Unfortunately, this is a bit pricey for my budget and for the smaller quantity that is sent for that price. Most likely I will only be getting this as treat for me some time next year around my birthday. Otherwise, I definitely recommend it for folks who are looking for something that this company boasts and described their site, it did not disappoint.

I had always heard that Hawaiian coffee was really good and I’ve had various mixes before, but this is a totally different experience. There is no acidity to this coffee. It’s worth a try if you’ve never had it… I don’t know if I can drink anything else now

Many years ago, I regularly bought 100% Kona coffee from Royal Kona - Private Estate. Then I stopped drinking coffee for many years. I’ve resumed drinking coffee and I checked on Amazon to see if Royal Kona sold on Amazon. I saw that they did, but their ratings weren’t as high as Blue Horse, so I decided to try Blue Horse. I made one cup of Blue Horse and it tasted like regular coffee, not Kona. I immediately ordered Royal Kona Private Reserve. The Royal Kona Private Reserve is very smooth - as good as it was when I used to buy it years ago.

Timely delivery and Great product. Thank you. Aloha. caffeine kick and awesome flavor. I save it for weekends so I can take time enjoy completely unrushed. Laid back bra.

Very rarely do I return items purchased on Amazon, even more rarely do I review purchases, and almost never for their poor quality (I research my purchases as best as I can); HOWEVER, I purchased 2 packages of very expensive and well rated coffee for Christmas presents. The items shipped quickly, BUT the packages looked like they had gone through the war; the coffee bags were crumpled so they could not be used as gifts. SO I can kept them to use as a special treat, or for company. The first brew was a disaster, bitter with poor flavor, worse than the average run of the mill stuff one can buy. So the second time I was very very careful to follow the instructions precisely, measuring carefully. BUT AGAIN, horrible coffee. and worse yet the time to return the items had lapsed. Why am I stuck with this miserably overpriced overrated coffee? and why doesnt Amazon give more time to reeturn Items, especially as many are used as gifts? HELP!

This is one of the best coffee I ever had. It's aroma and the lack of bitterness is its highlights. I bought a pound of Jamaican Blue Mountain from another company andgot both of them around the same time. They are both great coffee, however the aroma of this kona coffee is the reason why I liked this coffee better than compared to the JBM I got from a different company specially when brewed by a French Press.One of the most important things that makes a great cup of coffee is if it isfreshly roasted. Both the kona and JBMwere really good when I first opened thebag and noticed a decline in quality after afew days. I believe it is best to finish thewhole bag within a week after you open itwhich is another reason why I preferredthis kona as it comes in a 7oz bag, I wouldrather get two 7oz bag than one 14oz.I will order a pound of kona coffee from the same company that I ordered the JBM and compare it with the kona private reserve since this company roast yourcoffee the same day it is shipped out and Ireceive it in two business days. It also cost a lot less for $20 a pound. Will I order this kona private reserve again for $17.95 for 7oz? I'll find out when I try the other brand, if it taste similar to the kona private reserve then I will probably start getting my kona coffee from the other roaster at a much lower cost, if not I will most likely beordering the kona private reserve again. I think it's worth the price for a coffee this good.

I love this coffee have been buying it for 20 years when I went to the islands . Was so happy to find it here . It was fresh and amazing . It’s the only coffee I can drink with no heart burn , I don’t need creamer . It’s a smooth as can be. It’s expensive, and if you can’t taste the difference why it cost more , then don’t spend the extra money . This is top bean with a light roast because you get more caffeine that way . It breaks my heart to see the negative reviews on here because this is a superior product .

I used to work two blocks from Lion Coffee in Honolulu where I would visit several times a week (~21 years ago?). I seem to remember this brand being sold there along with their house roasted and it was available in all of the gift shops around the island. It was something I would buy myself for my birthday or other occasion when I wasn't feeling too broke. Back then it came in 10 oz or 12 oz bags and I don't remember the price being too much lower so it isn't really a bad deal considering the number of years and inflation.Maybe I have lost some of my sense of smell, and my coffee tastes have changed quite a bit over the years. I went from light roast Hawaiian when I lived there to Guatemalan light then medium roast when I moved back to the states, now drinking less acidic roasts and mainly African and some Indonesian beans with a South American thrown in every now and then for a change. I didn't get overly excited on smelling the beans and was not impressed with the first cup which my wife made me for my birthday this year. No memory evoking aroma or flavor. I made myself a small cup the next day and it started to bring back some memory with flavor. I ordered some from a different seller on Amazon two years ago and still enjoyed it. It's not fake but not sure I would buy it again through Amazon.Two stars would be too harsh because my olfactory discernment isn't what it used to be.
