It's not the same without Hawaiian water. There's something about the water
staying in the aquafier for such great lengths of time that adds
significantly to the taste of the coffee. I just couldn't make the same cup
of coffee back here. I generally default back to Arabica beans when I can
find them, but I don't search gourmet coffee shops. Whatever is available
in the morning is good enough. It's got to be really great coffee to make
me want to drink coffee all day anymore.

I never stumbled into any decent Kona for years but there IS such a
thing and it absolutely lives up to its reputation as one of the
world's great coffees. I had sincerely believed it all to be hype.

For a while (80's) Bennigans Restaurant ground and brewed Royal Kona
beans.
It was the first time I tasted Kona beans. Loved it.
