Makers of strong coffee search high and low for the best tasting Robusta beans which has sent them to all corners of the globe and with more demand for great-tasting Robust coffee farmers have now started to refine their farming techniques to producing better tasting bean. With Robusta being the coffee with the most caffeine content it makes it the number one choice for brands looking to produce the strongest coffee in the world but how do they mask the bitterness? Robusta is typically used in more inexpensive instant coffee sachets, and its bitter taste is masked with sugar and artificial sweeteners.
On the other hand, the less palatable Robusta species of coffee has a distinctive bitter taste, contains about 50-60% more caffeine than Arabica, and is cheaper to produce as it’s hardier and easier to grow. Arabica produces a great tasting, mild, and aromatic coffee and makes up about 70% of the world’s coffee production. Typically, most of the popular daily coffee blends use Arabica beans in their offerings.
To be considered for this outlandish title the amount of caffeine present in the coffee has to be huge and the only way of reaching this is by sourcing Robusta beans. Today these popular highly caffeinated beverages are popping up everywhere. Death Wish Coffee ( 1), Black Insomnia ( 2), and aptly named Asskicker are a few coffee brands that stuck in my mind but, there are a hell of a lot more. Some of you might think I’m crazy to brew up these strong coffees, but I’m sure that there are a whole boatload of you wanting to sample these highly caffeinated brews too if only once!Īfter searching around, I discovered that there are actually a handful of strong coffee brands that are all claiming the title of being able to brew the most powerful cup of Joe around. Being the caffeine addict that I am, I recently decided to unlock the realms of my mind that can only be reached by staying up, and wide-eyed all night after drinking some of the brands that stake the claim to being the world’s strongest coffee.
