java monster kona blend

so this is the final java monster for me to review, and one of the rarer ones at that. i say this is the final because i dont expect to come across any of the discontinued ones. the rarest at least in my area, is toffee, which is even rarer than the xpressos. the description says everybody knows some of the best coffee comes from the kona side of the big island of hawaii. well i didnt know that, and i honestly dont think the source of the coffee makes a big difference, its how you roast it and what you add to it. i dont really know what to expect from this, but if the awesome looking can with tikis and palm trees are any indication, this will be great.



smell: wow thats strong for a java monster. there is a very bold coffee scent, but also that pseudo liquor smell that irish blend has.



taste: well of all the java monsters this one tastes the most like coffee, and GOOD coffee too. i like the strong coffee taste, mixed with some sort of chocolate. honestly loca moca should taste like this instead of being the exact same thing as mean bean.



kick: not jittery, but very long lasting. got me through an entire day of walking without getting the slightest bit tired. although after it wore off my feet were in pretty damn bad shape and i didnt even notice.



overall: buy a palette! this is one of the better java monsters, with a great kick too. you caqn actually taste the coffee in this one, which is something that cant be said about most java monsters. this is the 3rd best, with second being hammer xpresso, and first being irish blend. this tastes like how loca moca should taste, and that is very good.
