FAQ

JUST HOW STRONG IS BLACK INSOMNIA?
Black Insomnia coffee has 4x more caffeine per cup than your average coffee, containing 1105mg of caffeine in a 12oz brew. How do we know this? It has been independently tested in a lab!
DOES IT TASTE 'STRONG'?
'Strong tasting' coffee is often confused with 'strength'. The taste of coffee is reliant on its roast. The darker the roast the 'stronger' the taste. The strength of the coffee itself refers to its caffeine content. Black Insomnia's flavour profile is smooth and sweet, thanks to its light roast - but it is extremely strong in terms of its caffeine content. Black Insomnia is extremely strong, but tastes light on the palate.
ARE POUR-OVER BAGS THE SAME AS INSTANT COFFEE?
Not at all. Instant coffee is coffee that has been previously brewed and then dehydrated to form crystals that you then rehydrate with hot water to drink. It dissolves instantly and has been the choice for convenience although the taste is considered inferior to freshly brewed coffee. Our coffee pour-over bags contain ground coffee that has not been brewed yet, but are just as convenient as instant coffee.
