The Pros: The smell opening Trader Joe's Kona Coffee can was amazing.
The Cons: Price. This container was 13 ounces and cost $19.99
The Verdict: Coffee is a really touchy topic with people. This coffee is perfect for people who detest an overly acidic coffee. In fact, there was almost no acidity/bitterness to this coffee. This coffee would also be good to blend or tone down an overly acidic coffee. For me, it wasn't my cup of...tea, err coffee. This is coffee you'll either love or never buy again. I leave it to you. So here is what you get for just about $20.

The cup of coffee:
If you are looking for silky smooth coffee, this is your cup of joe. If you look forward to a bit of bitterness in the morning, steer clear of this. I like a smooth cup, but I actually found this too smooth even for me. Will I throw this away? No way, this would be a great coffee to keep around to tone down some of the coffees I find terribly bitter. Would I spend $20 on this again? Probably not. Too expensive to keep around as a blend. Bummer.
