It's just a bad pun: I wanted to say "Kona coffee is usually like this" but the words I used are phonetically similar to saying "Kona coffee is usually from Kona" so my conversational partner thought I was messing with him. I'm happy my Japanese is at least good enough that I caught it right as it was leaving my mouth, so as it hit home and the guy was about to wince, I was already saying "That wasn't an intentional pun... sorry."
