Dutch man Willem Hols (61), and Anthony Coyne (56), appeared before Naas District Court this morning.
Hols arrived in Ireland one week ago, and is alleged to have been driving a van which concealed the drugs.
71 kilos of cocaine were found concealed in the van, with another kilo found in a follow-up search.
Hols was in the van during the garda operation.
No bail application was made, and Hols will reappear via video link on February 19.
Coyne was reported to have made no reply when charged in relation to the drugs seizure.
