For those of you that have access to Trader Joe's markets, try the
Kauai coffee they sell. Everything from Kauai comes from this one plantation, the largest in the U.S., and it's very smooth, much more so than Kona I think. At about 1/2 the price it's also easier on the wallet. You can get it at Amazon and other online stores as well but it's pricier, on par with the Kona roasts.
