"Death Wish doesn't say directly, but external tests suggest that Death Wish's roasts may have more than double the amount of caffeine than a Starbucks coffee of the same size. How's that for a wake-up call?"
"I did not do any tests to approximate the caffeine content, so that was not a factor in my ranking. Rather, I focused on the tasting notes present in each coffee, and for the flavored coffees in particular, I took into account how natural the flavors tasted."
"What I got instead was a pretty strong vanilla extract taste that didn't endear me to this roast. But because I always test coffee by drinking it black, I found the vanilla here to be too strong and too artificial."
Death Wish Coffee distinguishes itself through exceptionally high caffeine content, with external tests indicating levels more than double that of comparable Starbucks servings. A taste test evaluation examined multiple Death Wish coffee offerings, focusing on tasting notes and flavor authenticity rather than caffeine verification. The Vanilla variety received the lowest ranking due to an overly strong and artificial vanilla extract taste when consumed black, though it may perform better with cream additions. The evaluation methodology prioritized black coffee consumption as the testing standard for assessing flavor quality across the product line.
