I tried this not too long ago out of curiosity and it's just normal coffee except they use robusta beans which have more caffeine but more bitterness which is why it tastes like burnt garbage. The whole Death Wish skull and crossbones thing is just lame marketing for rubes. I'm gonna slap a machine gun on some green tea and call it Kill Shot and market to BJJ bros and make a fortune.

Even lefties market to this demographic. check out the young turks TOO STRONG COFFEE! I dunno what the demo name is but I'd imagine its millenial adolescents frozen in time.

They should extend this naming style to other products. I’m sure wannabe soldiers would buy “Tip of the spear moist towelettes” and “Shock/awe gravy”.
It's not quite as extreme but the brand "dude wipes" already exists out of the need to make personal hygiene products seem more masculine to appeal to insecure men

Instead of pursuing degenerate coffee blends, I just drink slightly more of my regular coffee when I want extra caffeine. Keep it simple, OP

men need to be constantly reassured that their foodstuffs are sufficiently deadly and or manly. basically a foolproof market niche

edit: i'm honestly amazed that nobody has made a lucky-charms style cereal with little guns, erect penises, rambo knives, lifted trucks etc.

They don't sell a light roast. Light roasts contain the most caffeine. If their whole thing is being "hardcore death coffee" then they should sell a lighter roast.

They also sell flavoured blends which are clearly for children or adults who can't appreciate a coffee without it tasting like Costco pumpkin pie.

Yeah, sorry I'm way too much of a coffee elitist to gently caress with this.

American "coffee culture" is trash.

Oh, I assume that's made by Nestle then.

Also I just like good tasting coffee. I don't think I've ever been like "inject me with the most caffeine" and if I was and that was the primary goal wouldn't like an energy drink work better?

I just want my coffee to be nice and tasty. I like nice tasting coffee.

Honestly I can't get over how American coffee marketing has always touted its products as BOLD, ROBUST, DARK, AND STRONG and its always just the most over-roasted, over-brewed, single-dimension swill ever. Anything that you need to add a 1/4 of half and half and a spoonful of sugar to make taste good shouldn't exist.

I feel if you tried to market a really good single-origin light roast with words like "fruity, floral, complex, exotic, spiced", you'd be laughed out of town for selling gay coffee.

Liquid Death has made it over to UK supermarkets now, it looks loving stupid on the shelves next to all the other bottled water brands, whose packaging all feature pictures of mountains and nature and stuff

Also it's £5 for 4x500ml cans

I moved past coffee and on to caffeine tablets a long time ago, OP.

I've gotten really good at staying under 1000mg per day, although lately I've probably gotten up to 700 or 800mg a few days.

I start my day with between 100 and 200mg of modafinil and 400mg of caffeine. The modafinil varies by how much sleep I've had and how fast I have to get up to full operating awareness, but the 400mg of caffeine is regular. I might try to reduce it further, but I've already reduced my intake by more than half compared to what I used to do.

I looked into caffeine pills one time, decided against it. Likely would wreck my gut. Is there any brand that is particularly reputable tho?

Amazon's OTC thing I think had some particularly amusing reviews, 1/2 were "works great!", 1/4 were "is this a placebo? what is in this poo poo? what is even going on?", 1/4 were "took one and I didn't sleep or stop licking my teeth for three days" no thank uuuu

Im sure a lot of it was people unaware that tolerance is a thing, but it was not heartening to read lol

Right wing coffee discourse is weird because they think flavored syrups and poo poo are elitist when in fact it's the most normie poo poo ever. Meanwhile all the real snobs are drinking it black.

Everything I say draws controversy. It's kinda like the abortion issue.
I usually get my coffee from one of the several sad cholo goth clown coffee shops in my area. That or I just drink the caffeinated poo poo water Seattle’s best they provide at work. I don’t like a coffee brands that seems to suggest I will have a heart attack after drinking it.
