Don Francisco's Kona Blend Ground Coffee — 18 oz Bag, Medium Roast, 10% Kona Floral & Fruity Notes

Don Francisco's Kona Blend Ground Coffee is a medium-roast ground blend with 10% Kona and premium Arabica beans, designed to deliver a floral aroma and subtle fruity notes in each 18 oz bag.

Crafted by a family-owned roastery with generations of experience, this 18 oz bag of Don Francisco's Kona Blend brings a balanced, approachable cup for everyday brewing. The blend pairs a small amount of authentic Kona with select Arabica beans to add nuance without overpowering. The package is nitrogen-flushed and fitted with a one-way valve to help lock in flavor from roast to cup.

How does this blend taste and when will I notice the Kona influence?

The Kona component (10%) adds a delicate, lightly floral character while the Arabica base keeps the cup smooth and medium-bodied. Expect gentle fruity highlights that appear most clearly in single-origin brewing methods or when the coffee is brewed slightly cooler than boiling temperature.

• Medium roast profile: balanced acidity and moderate body.
• Floral aromatics: subtle perfume-like top notes from Kona.
• Fruity hints: light berry or stone-fruit suggestions on the finish.
• Works well across drip, pour-over, French press, and moka pot.

What brewing methods work best with Don Francisco's Kona Blend?

This ground coffee is versatile—formulated to perform consistently in automatic drip machines yet expressive in manual methods. Use a standard medium grind setting for drip, a coarser grind for French press, and a slightly finer grind for pour-over or moka pot to highlight different flavor notes.

• Drip coffee maker: easy, reliable extraction and balanced cup.
• Pour-over: brighter clarity and accentuated floral notes.
• French press: fuller body with richer mouthfeel.
• Moka pot: intensified aroma and a chocolatey edge.

How is the coffee packaged to preserve freshness and sustainability?

The 18 oz bag uses nitrogen flushing and a one-way valve to protect the roast’s aroma and flavors until you open it. When the bag is empty, Don Francisco's participates in TerraCycle recycling programs to reduce waste and keep materials out of landfills.

• Nitrogen-flushed packaging reduces oxidation before first use.
• One-way valve lets CO2 escape without letting air back in.
• Bag is eligible for TerraCycle recycling—check local drop-off options.
• Family-roasted oversight from bean selection to final pack.

How should I store and portion this 18 oz bag to keep coffee at peak quality?

Keep the sealed bag in a cool, dark place and reseal between uses to slow flavor loss. For best flavor, use the coffee within 3–4 weeks after opening; measure about 1 to 2 tablespoons per 6 ounces of water and adjust to taste.

• Storage: airtight container after opening, away from heat and sunlight.
• Serving guide: 1–2 tablespoons coffee per 6 fl oz water.
• Freshness window: optimal within 3–4 weeks after opening.
• Grind note: pre-ground convenience—avoid regrinding to preserve profile.

Who is this for? Don Francisco's Kona Blend Ground Coffee suits daily coffee drinkers who want a dependable medium roast with a touch of Kona's nuance—ideal for people who appreciate subtle floral and fruity notes without an overwhelmingly single-origin intensity. It’s also a practical choice for households that use a variety of brewing methods and prefer the convenience of pre-ground coffee delivered in a freshness-preserving 18 oz bag.
