Okay, I'll admit it. I'm a coffee snob. A French press will make the best coffee and the best coffee is 100% Kona.

Ditto on the French Press. One thing I'll say about Kona, is that at least you know that certain minimum standards are met in the harvesting that I wouldn't necessarily expect from Papua New Guinea or Indonesia.

That said, thare is no best coffee, just as there is no best wine. Kona is smooth, but with certain pastries a good Kenyan will best it. (No Obama Kenyan/Hawaiian jokes please) For something with a stronger bite Jamaican Blue or even a good Sumatra might be called for. There's a reason why superior coffee houses carry dozens of different (unflavored) coffees.

I would like to pass a law stating that anyone selling Kona "blend" must make the word "blend" 50% larger than the word Kona, and that the percentage of Kona be listed immediately after in the same same size typeface as the word Kona.

AGREED!
