Who’s got the most caffeinated coffee?

My friend Erinn Day pointed me to Thrillist’s article on the caffeine levels of coffees from various vendors of the black sweet nectar of life. It turns out that Starbucks, thanks to their relatively high caffeine levels (more than twice that of McDonald’s coffee, ounce for ounce) and being just about everywhere, is your best easily-found bet for a good jolt. Yeah, they over-roast the beans, but if you remember what coffee in North America was like before they entered the game, you can appreciate what they’ve done.

However, if you really want to go for the max, you’ll want to go online and place an order for Deathwish Coffee, which has more than twice Starbucks’ coffee, ounce for ounce. Just remember Spider-Man’s maxim when drinking the stuff: With great power comes great responsibility.

  • I wonder where Mr. Horton falls on this scale? Likely close to McDonald's.

    Also I wonder if they are measuring typical run-of-the-mill McDonald's (probably) versus the newer McCafe concept McDick's is running here in Canada to directly counter Timmy's?

  • From what I found online, Tim Hortons rate at 10mg per fl. oz. Closer to Seattle's best than McDonalds.
