If I have a choice I prefer "cafe' REY" imported from Costa Rica.
Is it mild or strong?

I thought everyone was all about buying American on the board. Does everyone drink imported coffee? I guess it's ok as long as it's not a block.

The best we can do is Hawaii.

"Understanding that coffee beans grow well in areas near the equator, it happens to be somewhat of an anomaly in that it is the only area of the world that produces coffee that is not located between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn. One of the its famous coffee brands, known as "Kona", is grown in Hawaii which lies just north of the Tropic of Cancer.

Everywhere else in the USA is just too far north from the equator for coffee to grow. It really enjoys that tropical weather!"

It is fairly strong however, is really smooth with little bitterness or acidity.

I've been planning the trip for a couple years.
My plan is to surf every day I'm there.

PS, the best coffee I've ever had is Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee, but I don't buy it, because it's $30 a pound.
