Because of its cost, many people shy away from buying kona coffee for themselves for every day drinking. Because of this, it makes a great special gift for the coffee lover.

Chocolate Covered Kona Coffee Beans

A Delicious Coffee Gift Idea from Koa Coffee

chocolate covered kona beansChocolate Covered Peaberry Beans...
Product description:

We don't just dip any old coffee bean in chocolate. Our chocolate covered kona beans are made with Peaberry Coffee Beans, one of the most sought after Kona coffee beans of all; the champagne of kona coffee beans.

Slowly, we dark roast them to perfection. Then we give them a thick, generous coating of rich, dark, creamy, semi-sweet chocolate. Finally, we finish with a gentle kiss of mocha.

Excellent with a glass of port wine, or better yet, with a steaming cup of our Private Reserve Kona coffee. At this price, why not toss in a couple of bags? 4 oz bag;

Kona Coffee Bean Plants

A Special Gift for the Green-thumbed Coffee Lover!


This is a nice gift for the coffee lover with a green thumb. This product comes as two groups of kona coffee bean plants in their own pots, 3" - 4" tall.

Although the product description says the plant will grow beans that you can roast and grind for your own coffee, it's more likely that it will take a few years before the plant is large enough to grow beans. It takes a minimum of four years from seed to produce berries.

In the meantime, a coffee plant can be a very nice looking houseplant with it's lovely dark green foliage, and it makes a good conversation piece.

Krups Fast Touch Coffee Grinder

I like simplicity paired with good quality, and this Krups Fast Touch Coffee Grinder is simple to use and lives up to its "Krups" name in quality.

Amazon.com Review

Nothing beats a freshly ground, freshly brewed cuppa joe to start the day, and with this grinder, you can have up to 20 cups' worth of beans at a time. The understated black color and contemporary oval design fit in well with any kitchen décor, while the small size (just 6 inches high) doesn't take up too much premium counter space. Stainless-steel blades guarantee a long life and an even grind, whether you use this grinder for coffee, spices, nuts, or even whole grains. --Jill Lightner
