Death by Chocolate Flavored Coffee

Dark chocolate. Semi-sweet cocoa. The only acceptable way to have dessert before 8am.

Death by Chocolate is a medium roast that tastes exactly like what it's called. Dark chocolate up front, semi-sweet cocoa through the finish — the kind of flavor that makes you check the bag again because it seems like something this good should have more of a catch. There isn't one. No sugar, no sweeteners, zero calories black. Just chocolate, in coffee form, available any time of day.

The Beans

Death by Chocolate is built on a Brazilian Arabica medium roast — naturally lower in acidity, smooth body, the kind of base that carries bold chocolate flavoring without the bean getting in the way. Dark chocolate and semi-sweet cocoa need a clean, balanced foundation; medium roast Brazilian gives them exactly that.

Both chocolate notes come from natural and artificial flavoring applied after roasting — not a roast characteristic, not something subtle. The dark chocolate is there. The semi-sweet cocoa finish is there. Air-roasted to order with 100% solar power. Even heat, no scorching, which keeps the cup clean and both notes landing as intended rather than muddled into a vague sweetness.

How to Brew

Auto Drip: 2 tablespoons per 8 oz of water. Medium grind. The dark chocolate note comes through clearly at standard brew strength — the semi-sweet cocoa finish shows up on the back end.

Pour Over: Same ratio as drip. Steady, even pour. Clean extraction keeps both chocolate notes distinct rather than blending into one.

French Press: 1 tablespoon per 4 oz of water, coarse grind. Steep 4 minutes, press slow. Full immersion brings the richness of the dark chocolate forward — the closest thing to a mocha without adding anything.

Iced: Brew double strength over ice, or cold brew overnight. The chocolate holds up extremely well cold. A splash of cream makes it taste like a chocolate milkshake made a responsible decision.

K-Cups: Compatible with Keurig 1.0 and 2.0 machines. 12-count box. Same coffee, no measuring required.

Storage: Resealable bag — keep it sealed, store in a cool dry place away from direct light. Airtight container after opening. Best within 4 weeks of opening.

FAQ

Does it actually taste like chocolate?
Yes — dark chocolate up front, semi-sweet cocoa on the finish. It's not a vague chocolatey impression; it's a deliberate flavor combination that delivers on the name. Brew strength and what you add will shift how pronounced that is, but black out of the pot is genuinely good.

Does it taste sweet without adding sugar?
Yes — the natural and artificial flavoring gives it a chocolate character that reads as sweet without any added sugar or sweetener. The semi-sweet cocoa finish does most of that work. It tastes like dessert without actually being dessert.

Is this coffee easy on the stomach?
It tends to be, and there are a few reasons for that. We air-roast all of our coffee — unlike drum roasting, air roasting circulates heat evenly around the bean rather than scorching it against a hot surface, which generally produces a smoother, gentler cup. We also use a Brazilian bean base, and Brazilian beans are naturally lower in acidity thanks to the growing altitude and processing methods used there. Add a medium roast to the mix — longer roast time means less of the compounds that can irritate a sensitive stomach — and you've got a cup that tends to sit a lot easier than most. No guarantees, because everyone's different, but if coffee and your stomach have had a complicated relationship, this is a reasonable place to start.

Do you offer a decaf version?
Yes — Death by Chocolate is available in decaf. Same flavor, same air-roasted process, without the caffeine. Our decaf uses the Mountain Water Process, which skips the harsh chemical solvents. Bedtime approved.

What's the difference between the bag and the K-Cups?
Same coffee, different format. The bag gives you flexibility on grind and brew method. The K-Cups are 12-count boxes compatible with Keurig 1.0 and 2.0 machines — grab-and-go with no measuring required.

Is Death by Chocolate keto-friendly?
Yes — black coffee has zero sugar, zero sweeteners, and no added carbohydrates. The flavoring adds no sugar either. Naturally keto-friendly as a factual spec, not a lifestyle claim.
