**I’m still early in my figuring it out, although my wife calls me a snob, but drinks it most every day I make it. The rabbit holes are many and winding in the “good coffee” world. Definitely can nerd out as bad as you desire to in the chase for the perfect cup!!**
I was wondering the same thing as I was aware of the loss during roasting. They have another one called "Double Dead" that has even more caffeine. Like you, I have ran those rabbit holes looking for the next "best thing". I do have to admit, the marketing got me on this one with the name and vibrantly colored artwork on the bag.
Oh well, nothing ventured, nothing gained. I'm not afraid to take a chance though. I mean, I agreed to meat a large stranger for the first time, at night, under an overpass on highway 82, in Mississippi years ago just to get some new groceries from the Mississippi State cheese store. grin

The true mark of a man is not how he conducts himself during times of prosperity, but how he conducts himself during times of adversity.
