Aloha Island Coffee KONA-POD, Estate Blend Medium Roast, Kona & Hawaiian Coffee Blend,18-Count Coff

Aloha Island Coffee KONA-POD, Estate Blend Medium Roast, Kona & Hawaiian Coffee Blend,18-Count Coffee PodsI ordered a box of this plus the adapter for a Keurig when I couldn't find the Tully's Kona that I normally order. This coffee tastes ok, but it's very weak. I've tried making it using less than a full cup of water in my Keurig and it is still too weak for my taste.

Just received the item, great delivery as usual by Amazon. Was very disappointed, though, to open the package to find that these are not Keurig-type pods, and that you need to purchase an additional accessory to use them in the Keurig (order form for the accessory is "conveniently" included with the coffee). If you have a Keuring, this is not the product for you, unless you want to buy the accessory. Unless I missed it, there is no indication in the product description that this is not the now-ubiquitous Keurig pod, nor that you also needed the separate accessory. Manufacturer should be more transparent; felt like I had been "baited and switched." Will be returning, sorry I wasted my time.

Update: Now that I am initiated in to the terminology of one-cup coffee, it is clear that I was the uninformed one. I did break down and purchase the accessory to brew in the Keurig. The coffee was well-packaged and delivered on time, and the accessory to brew in the Keurig worked like a charm. The coffee didn't have the taste of fresh-gound Kona, but did have the light flavor of a Kona-style coffee. I would order it again (especially since I have the accessory now!). Sorry for my ignorance.

Coffee is excellent, it is a MEDIUM roast, which means for you un-educated people that it is NOT a strong (Dark) roast. Second it says in the item name that it is PODS never does it mention that they are K-Cups. There is no scam here just that you are too stupid to read the product discription or reviews for that matter. 5th line in product discription bullets says "Brewing with a Keurig K-cup brewer? Our Estate Blend coffee pods brew superb coffee with the Aloha Island My Pod-Cup Adapter for Keurig, available at Amazon".... It says right in bullets that you need an adapter to use with K-Cup.

Seller beware.... Your customers are not smart enough to read.

Hopefully someone will read this and not order it for the wrong machine, or if they do they will order the adapter at the same time.

As for the coffee, tastes great, I love it. The Pods are designed to work with my BUNN coffee maker. While it is a little weak, it tastes great. If it was a little stronger I would give it 5 Stars.

this item showed up when i searched for "k-cup kona" and they seem to have purposefully not included any picture of what the pods look like. disappointing.

Want Aloha Island Coffee KONA-POD, Estate Blend Medium Roast, Kona & Hawaiian Coffee Blend,18-Count Coff Discount?

My wife loves the coffee. There's just one problem: I specifically searched for the Keruig VUE coffee maker, which is NOT the K-cup. This came up, whether by their tags or Amazon's i won't ever know.

So this arrives as a gift, and is worthless for use in her Vue coffee maker. Sort of an anti-gift.

So if you're looking for k-cup coffee loads (not in the cup), this i am told tastes great.

If you want the pre loaded cups or VUE cups, keep looking.
