Product Information

How much caffeine is there in different types of coffee? What kind has the least caffeine? More importantly, which kind contains the most caffeine? Read on (or, let’s be honest, skim on) to find the answer. Grocery Store Coffees: Around 50-100 milligrams of Caffeine If you drink coffee over a longer time period, the caffeine will be released into your system more slowly. It’ll also make it less likely that you’ll feel an undesirable caffeine “crash.” Carefully selected and roasted blend of the highest quality Arabica and Robusta beans ensure bold flavor without tasting burnt or bitter. Caffeine and melatonin have a minor interaction. Basically, the caffeine in the coffee will handily cancel out the effect of the melatonin, and you'll just end up wide awake, staring at the popcorn texture on the ceiling, 11 cents worth of sleeping aid poorer. Which is fine, really. I don't know what you're supposed to do with 11 cents. When it comes to combining melatonin and caffeine, in the immortal words of Dexter Holland and his offspring: "You gotta keep 'em separated."

But still: What if you could combine your two favorite things— caffeine and sleep—by drinking coffee and taking melatonin at the same time?

Be wary out there if someone hands you a cup of coffee and says, “Be careful, it’s strong.” They may not be kidding. Caffeine is a potent stimulant that keeps you awake and alert, and makes you feel energized and focused. Melatonin is a gentle hormone that makes you feel a little sleepy. We’re the leader in the strong coffee category and are not letting up anytime soon,” Death Wish customer service representative CaldenTuller told CNN. “Our coffee is much different than the competition, due to the fact that our roast is USDA certified organic, and fair trade certified as well.” The placebo effect can be great at first, but it rarely lasts when it comes to drinking coffee day after day. “Strong” Coffee Companies: 300+ milligrams of Caffeine Don't combine the two, or it'll be like the time I had a cold and took Nyquil after drinking a Red Bull: An existential waking nightmare full of periodic weird dreams about being chased by a giant cheeseburger.

To sum up: don't drink strong coffee at night and take melatonin expecting to be able to sleep, unless you're prepared to stay awake all night being productive instead. Or, you know, if you're a rat.

The main reason why caffeine will always win in a battle against melatonin is that caffeine is a natural psychoactive substance, and melatonin is not. Caffeine is capable of boosting your energy, mood, and focus, while melatonin is just a boring hormone that your body boringly produces.

Keep your coffee game strong and try a cup of Joe at one of these other great Coffee Shops in Cape Town. And then, when you’ve had too much caffeine (if that’s even possible?!) swing past The Tea Bar on Long Street for a smoothing cuppa. While you there, you might also want to try a bit to eat at one of these Top Brunch Spots in Cape Town. If you want to drink coffee to finish some work or studying and take melatonin to sleep, make sure to space them out by at least a few hours. If you need to sleep after drinking coffee, here are 16 safe ways to help yourself doze off. Caffeine content does vary by everything mentioned above, and even by who is doing the testing. We put this together by using, in part, these resources:

For those looking to drink an average cup of coffee, get an average productivity increase, and just generally live average—the grocery store shelf is a great place to snatch your next bag of beans. Unfortunately for those looking to get a strong caffeine boost from their coffee, this category is what the majority of coffees you’ll find on the shelf at your grocery store are. Blah. Specialty Coffees: 50-300 milligrams of Caffeine In actuality, whether a coffee tastes strong or not has nothing to do with its caffeine content—it has to do with its roast, as well as the beans involved. The darker the roast, the 'stronger' it tastes in your mouth. If this is all you need—if you need to “ace” a meeting and you can then pretty much go home and call it a day—there’s nothing wrong with downing a coffee as fast as you can safely drink it.

Do you love indulging in a relaxing cup of high caffeine coffee after dinner, but find it hard to fall asleep? Or do you love the taste of melatonin, but find it hard to stay awake afterward? You're not alone.The robusta bean and caffeine is not hidden by the other beans but rather complimented resulting in a well-balanced flavour – now that is true craftsmanship”, states Sean referring to Gerald’s expert coffee roasting abilities. “Gerald is cooking with flavours and has to repeat the exact blend with each batch so we have to test every lot for its caffeine content. We have an agreement that if the batch is below 16900mg of caffeine, then we won’t use it, but Gerald has never missed the mark.” For that matter, caffeine also takes longer to leave your body than melatonin. The half-life of caffeine is about 5 hours, while the half-life of melatonin is only about 30 minutes. So if you're trying to sleep and you've got caffeine and melatonin coursing through your veins, the caffeine is going to win every time. Seriously though, caffeine and melatonin don't mix. Caffeine is a stimulant, and melatonin is a not-a-stimulant that makes you sleepy. So if you take them both at the same time, you're basically canceling each one out. The caffeine will make it harder for you to sleep, and the melatonin won't be able to do its job. But what if I really need to stay up and I really need to sleep? In fact, I'm going to just assume you're looking this up out of curiosity and not actually planning on doing it, because that would be a really bad idea.
