Royal Mills Thunder and Lightning Coffees

Royal Mills (aka Ito En) has released two new canned coffee drinks, Kona Black and White Cappuccino. I call these thunder and lightning for their contrasting black and white packaging and beverage color and taste.

The Kona Black drink is seriously black and not sweet at all. It’s not creamy either and is pretty much coffee straight up. Not bad when you want basic, strong coffee.

The White Cappuccino is the lightning, the exact opposite of the thunder, Kona Black. Sweet and creamy, this drink takes getting used to. Intensely sweet at the beginning but mellows at the end.

Not sure if these drinks are replacing other Royal Mills coffee drinks. I haven’t seen the maroon colored Kona Blended coffee can for some time so it may be replaced by the new Kona Black.
