That would be PERFECT in New Orleans Square. :D:

Although, I don't know how parents would react to the trademark voodoo donuts. :rolleyes:

Have you tried a French press of 100% Kona from Kona Cafe? I have even been able to get it at Ohana during breakfast. It was a new request for the server, but she happily brought us 2 of them!

Are you sure it's 100% Kona?

I heard they had Kona, not sure if it's 100%. I'll have to ask next time we're down there. I do like me some Kona!

They offer both 100% Kona in the french press, and Kona Blend, by the cup and at the coffee bar. It is roasted in Orlando I believe.
The french press compares very favorably to the Kona that I order online from Smith Farms in Hawaii.

I don't drink coffee so have never paid much attention to the price. I checked the Smith's Farms site and saw that they get $22 a pound. You guys have an expensive habit.

My wife drinks coffee and occasionally gets a pound of our neighbor's stuff that'a a mix of beans he grows in Kula at his O'o farm and beans from Kaanapali Coffee Farms. It runs $26.50 a pound. She sez the price difference between store bought and the Kona/Kula stuff is really out of whack as there's not much difference in the taste.

We got a pound of Kona and a pound of Jamaican Blue Mountain at work. We tried drank on alternating days. It was hard to go back to the swill they give us.

You understand that to some...me included, the word Coffee and Swill are interchangeable. :twisted:
