Java Monster Kona Blend

Normally I’m blunt and to the point but this one time I feel a history lesson is needed.

Kona coffee is a rare commodity. In fact, only an estimated 1,500 acres are said to be in production and the majority of farms in Kona are family owned and operated in Hawaii. This created a problem in meeting demand. Kona blends of coffee are from Hawaii originally and can be super expensive ($25+ a pound). I was excited to learn Monster made an energy drink named KONA BLEND to let common people try this excellence of a coffee. Could it truly be a “New Big Island blend too good to be true”? I’m thinking so, MAHALO!

Java Monster Toffee

The Look: Java Monster Toffee: “It’s time to get out of line and step up to what’s next! It’s Coffee done the Monster way; wide open, with a take no prisoner attitude yet the experience on how to back it up.” This 15oz blend is poured into what appears to be wooden, sienna colored patterned can. It’s then embellished with the large golden M, decaling the majority of the can. The flavor “TOFFEE” is listed near the lip in gold yet bold lettering. JAVA MONSTER is written in dark mahogany out lined in the gold near the bottom with the wording coffee + energy. The Contents are clearly defined with the website on the reverse side. Monster knows the power and simplicity of the M.
