what a way to start '07: marc, the indian scout of NYCE, scrounged up what is perhaps the quintessential, the penultimate, the emblematic NYCE product: Hershey's ltd-ed coffee kisses. let us quantify (or is that qualify?): 1. limited edition + 2. coffee. these coffee kisses are the pinnacle in a flurry of elegant, limited-ed flavors intro'd by hershey's over the holidays (incl. dark-choc/strawberry & dark-choc raspberry). but coffee. the aroma when you open the bag bursts right out: more folger's than intelligentsia (props to chic coffee guru spinnakr) but still admirably dark & espresso-y, w/ a flavor similar to that Pocket Coffee stuff

Hershey's Limited Edition Coffee Kisses
what a way to start '07: marc, the indian scout of NYCE, scrounged up what is perhaps the quintessential, the penultimate, the emblematic NYCE product: Hershey's ltd-ed coffee kisses. let us quantify (or is that qualify?): 1. limited edition + 2. coffee. these coffee kisses are the pinnacle in a flurry of elegant, limited-ed flavors intro'd by hershey's over the holidays (incl. dark-choc/strawberry & dark-choc raspberry). but coffee. the aroma when you open the bag bursts right out: more folger's than intelligentsia (props to chic coffee guru spinnakr) but still admirably dark & espresso-y, w/ a flavor similar to that Pocket Coffee stuff
Finally, a Hershey's product I might actually like, if I could eat it.
ReplyDeleteQUITE A FEW KISSES SEEM TO BE MISSING FROM THAT BAG.
ReplyDeleteMmmmmmmmm coffee...
ReplyDeleteCoffee lover, yes.
ReplyDeleteCoffee guru? Not quite there yet.
Happy New Year tg!
Coffee was SO last year!
ReplyDeleteTRENDBO.
ReplyDeletePocket coffee? To accompany a person's pocket protector, perhaps?
ReplyDeleteI'm a big fan of the pocket calculator.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'm a huge fan of the side pocket shot.
ReplyDeleteHershey's in general is ludicrously sweet(even their dark chocolate), but I am a coffee fanatic so I may have to give this a shot. Coffee in kiss form seems to be self-contradictory though...the sophistication of coffee with the playfulness of candy named after an gesture of affection. My mind - it boggles!
ReplyDeleteSay what you will about commercial chocolate; it's all profit to me.
ReplyDeleteLet's hear it for the pocket rocket.
ReplyDeleteHmm...I was expecting these to come out sometime. I wonder if coffee M&M's are in the future?
ReplyDeleteExcuuuuuuuuuuuuse me, but this was the one and only Pocket Rocket.
ReplyDeleteI bought a bag and got hooked. Now I can't find them anymore.
ReplyDeletei learn more things from reading this blog....can't find these hershey's anywhere at the store, but they sure sound great. nmotfbjn
ReplyDeletePLEASE tell where I can purchse a few bags of the Coffee Kisses
ReplyDeletePLEASE tell me where I can still purchse a few bags of the Coffee Kisses
ReplyDeletewhere can I get the coffee kisses?
ReplyDeleteI am obsessed with these! I made it my mission over the holidays to try all of their limited edition or interesting flavors. The hersheys kiss with mona loas are amazing, as are the caramel creme. The mocha kisses are incredibly strong scented.
ReplyDeleteI'm selling my last four bags of Coffee Kisses on ebay. Help me out I'm getting deployed! The auction number is: 200195533764 Have a great day!
