Amazing but High Caffeine Coffee

Cafe Society
1

I’m not a coffee drinker, but I would like to buy some nice stuff for a friend who is a caffeine junky.

I don’t think she’s particularly a gourmet, so I’m aiming for something that would be impressively tasty (yet still very high caffeine) to even the non-connoisseur. I’ll be buying a bean blender to go with it, so whole beans are fine.

Any recommendations?

We get our coffee from Boca Java. We’ve also gotten it from Green Mountain.

You want fresh fresh fresh. Don’t buy it off the store shelf…you have no idea how long it’s been there. I like the decaf flavored versions at night. Ivylad doesn’t like “blends,” but that’s a matter of taste. If he’s going to buy Hawaiian Kona or Jamacian Blue Mountain, he wants the real thing, not a “blend.”

Go for the greener roasts too. The darker the roast, the more caffeine is lost.

Not really fancy or anything, but Stewart’s coffee makes Red Eye, which has a whole lot of caffine in it. Seriously, this stuff should be used sparingly around those not used to it.

So these would be the specific items I would want to look up on those sites?

Those are considered premium coffees and can be very expensive. I don’t know how much you want to spend, but the point I was trying to make is that if you’re going to buy one of those coffees, make sure it’s the real thing and not a “blend.”

I don’t know what is and isn’t the real thing and while I can certainly “avoid” things that have “blend” in the description, I really just want someone to link me to a page and say, “Buy that one!”

And yes, I am looking for premium coffees. I’m probably targetting, dunno, a pound of coffee for under $100?

Well, there’s so many to choose from. Qadgop makes a good point…the less roasting, the more caffeine. You can try a sampler pack…but as long as you’re not buying Folger’s, you really can’t go wrong with the two sites that I linked to…and there may be more out there. And you can buy good coffee for easily less than $100 a pound.

Suspected. Though I would like to find something that’s not just good, but dunno, is particular, where you tried it and it while being a good coffee was distinctly its own thing and not just one of any number of high quality coffees.
