全球最提神咖啡 一杯可致数晚失眠全球最提神咖啡 一杯可致数晚失眠

  An online coffee firm have invented what they claim is the world&0#39;s strongest coffee - which contains 200 per cent more caffeine and comes with its own health warning.

  一家网上咖啡店发明了一种自称为“全球最提神”的咖啡。这种咖啡里的咖啡因含量比普通咖啡高出200%,出售时甚至贴出“有害身体健康”的警告。

  Mike Brown&0#39;s intense caffeinated dark roast drink, named &0#39;Death Wish Coffee&0#39;, is blended from the strongest beans in the world and contains double the amount of caffeine of the average Starbucks coffee.

  发明了这种含有大量咖啡因的香浓烘焙饮品的人叫迈克-布朗,他还将其命名为“死亡之愿”。这种咖啡由世界上味道最重的咖啡豆混合制成,所含咖啡因含量是普通星巴克咖啡的两倍之多。

  His Death Wish Coffee beans are ground very fine for extra potency - and Mike even says the extreme brew is his most popular blend.

  经过精细研磨之后的“死亡之愿”咖啡豆具有惊人的提神效力,迈克甚至说这种极端咖啡是他所制咖啡中最受欢迎的一款。

  The rather threatening packaging on &0#39;Death Wish Coffee&0#39; comes with a skull and crossbones, while a label warns that &0#39;sleepless nights will result&0#39;.

  “死亡之愿”的包装袋有些恐怖,上面印有骷髅和交叉放置的骨头,商标上还警告说:“小心连夜失眠”。

  Death Wish Coffee is made from Robusta beans which contain &0#39;nearly double the amount of caffeine&0#39; than the Arabica beans used by high-end roasters, according to experts.

  据专家说,“死亡之愿”咖啡是由罗布斯塔咖啡豆制成的。同使用高端烘焙器处理的阿拉比卡咖啡豆相比,这种咖啡豆的咖啡因含量还要多两倍。

  A single 12-ounce cup of coffee at Starbucks contains approximately 260 milligrams of caffeine according to EnergyFiend, a caffeine database. The same cup from Death Wish Coffee contains 520 milligrams, double the amount.

  咖啡因数据库EnergyFiend显示,星巴克里一杯12盎司的咖啡大约含有260毫克咖啡因。但同样一杯“死亡之愿”却含有咖啡因520毫克,是普通咖啡的两倍。

  Mike added: &0#39;Usually the lighter the roast, the more the caffeine. But most coffee drinkers prefer a darker roast.

  迈克还说:“通常烘焙程度越浅,所含咖啡因含量越高。但大多数顾客都喜欢浓稠色重的深度烘焙咖啡。”

  &0#39;This is medium-roast so it has more flavor than other highly-caffeinated blends. We sell 13 different blends of coffee, and Death Wish is our most popular one.&0#39;

  “和其他含有大量咖啡因的同类型咖啡相比,这种中度烘焙的咖啡口味更丰厚。我们店里出售13种不同的咖啡,而‘死亡之愿’是最受欢迎的。”
