World’s Strongest Coffee Released: Cafely’s BanMe Blend

LAS VEGAS, Nev., May 12, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Cafely, the premium Vietnamese coffee brand known for bold flavor profiles, today announced the official release of BanMe, its most potent offering yet and a legitimate contender for the world’s strongest coffee. These exceptional beans are sourced directly from Vietnam’s renowned coffee capital, Buon Ma Thuot, at an altitude of 800 meters in the lush Central Highlands.

BanMe stands apart through its exclusive use of rare peaberry beans—nature’s concentrated powerhouses that constitute just 5% of coffee harvests.

“This isn’t just another strong coffee—it’s an entirely different category of energy,” explains Mimi Nguyen, Cafely co-founder. “We’ve created BanMe for those who find conventional coffee insufficient for their demanding days. The 100% peaberry robusta composition delivers approximately twice the caffeine of standard arabica beans while maintaining a surprisingly complex flavor profile.”

What Do Customers Say About Cafely’s Strongest Coffee?

Early customer feedback has been enthusiastic, with BanMe earning a 4.78/5 rating from over 250 verified buyers.

One reviewer notes: “The intense flavors explode in your mouth with a lingering cherry aftertaste. And what a powerful caffeine rush!”

Despite its formidable strength, BanMe offers remarkable flavor complexity with tasting notes of dark chocolate, toasted almond, and black cherry. The natural dry processing method preserves these distinctive characteristics while developing the coffee’s full-bodied richness.

“What separates BanMe from other high-caffeine coffees is our refusal to sacrifice flavor for strength,” adds Alex, Cafely co-founder. “Many competitors boost caffeine content at the expense of taste. We’ve demonstrated you can have both when you start with exceptional beans and apply meticulous roasting techniques.”

Cafely maintains its commitment to ethical sourcing through direct farmer partnerships in Vietnam, ensuring fair compensation while protecting the environment. A portion of all profits supports initiatives dedicated to fighting climate change through the company’s partnership with Rainforest Trust.

BanMe Coffee is available for purchase in both whole bean and ground formats, with special introductory pricing of $21.95 (regularly $25.95). All orders include Cafely’s 100% Happiness Guarantee with a 60-day risk-free trial.

Who Is Coffee Launches Online Specialty Coffee Store That Provides Spotlight and Fair Pay to Colombian Coffee Farmers

NEW YORK, N.Y. /ScoopCloud/ -- Who Is Coffee, Inc., a transparent and direct trade coffee company, announced the launch of an online specialty coffee store that puts the emphasis on the stories of Colombian coffee farmers. Colombian specialty coffee is available for shipping directly to consumers in whole bean or ground coffee in aesthetic packages that prominently display the face and name of the coffee farmer that grew and processed the specialty coffee. The artwork on the coffee packages has been designed by a Colombian artist from the coffee regions.

Unlike other coffee companies, Who Is Coffee introduces the consumer to the coffee farmer in a bid to bring more transparency to the coffee industry. That is also why Who Is Coffee has a business model designed to pay the farmers the fair rates they deserve, compensating them substantially above market price. Who Is Coffee tackles the financial, ethical and environmental issues caused by the major coffee players, by redefining the coffee supply chain at a more human level.

Who Is Coffee's online store features three Colombian coffee farmers with captivating stories: Ana María, José David and Alejandro.

Ana María (https://whoiscoffee.com/pages/finca-villa-libia) is a young Colombian woman, who, against all odds, misogyny and external pressure, held on to her grandfather's farm when he passed away and decided to become a coffee farmer.

José David (https://whoiscoffee.com/pages/finca-cr) grew up on farms mired in violence: he would find dead bodies on his farm every other month. Now he runs a coffee farm in Medellín, where he produces specialty coffee while also providing a cultural point for tourists to learn about the history of coffee in Colombia.

Alejandro (https://whoiscoffee.com/pages/finca-alto-bonito), an engineer, gave up on his dream of moving to Europe because he fell in love with his coffee farm, showing resilience and a duty to protect his family legacy.

Who Is Coffee ensures traceability of its coffee through its participation in every part of the supply chain. "We personally visit the coffee farms, actively participate in the processing of the coffee, accompany the export/import of the beans, assist with the roasting and contribute to the fulfillment of coffee orders," says Lucas Webb, Co-Founder.

Book Premiere for Former Convict Turned Multi-Millionaire Bikini Barista Mogul

LOS ANGELES, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- On July 31, 2021, Los Angeles based publishing company Launch Pad Publishing is celebrating the release of "Something Better's Brewing: What I Learned From Prison, Parenthood and Pouring Coffee" (ISBN: 978-195140765) - the debut memoir from Sarah Birnel.

A former prisoner, Birnel transformed her life at 22, eventually turning a job at a local coffee stand into an empire based on the leadership, sexiness, strength and drive of women. She's now the owner of over a dozen coffee stands and restaurants in Spokane, Washington.

A child drug addict whose early life was marked by tragedy, Birnel careened through life, looking for escape anywhere she could find it. Living on the streets, doing drugs and engaging in a series of destructive relationships left her pregnant and eventually imprisoned.

But when she was 22 and in prison for the second time, Birnel had the epiphany that there was something else out there for her-an existence that was less about surviving and more about thriving. Determined to turn life around-for both herself and her children-Birnel vowed to defeat drug addiction, choose her own health and trust her instincts. Since then, she's built a happy family, in turn providing her children with safety, support and the knowledge that anything is possible if you take control of your own life and destiny.

Simultaneously heartbreaking and inspiring, Birnel's memoir serves as a model for anyone who believes they can't escape their past.

"Most debut authors think their personal stories are fascinating when they're not all that dramatic," says publisher Anna David. "Sarah, meanwhile, seems to have no idea just how wild her experiences are and what an inspiring person she is. She's getting out of prison, building empires, empowering women and then kind of going, 'Oh, is this interesting?'"

The premiere for "Something Better's Brewing" will take place at Cinelounge Outdoors, 1625 N Las Palmas Ave in Hollywood, at 6 p.m. on July 31, 2021. Guests will enjoy concessions, drinks, complimentary copies of the book while Birnel shares more about her life in a Q&A and book signing.

"Something Better's Brewing: What I Learned From Prison, Parenthood and Pouring Coffee" is available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble, among many other outlets.

Data from 1,229 Tastings Reveals Ethiopia as World’s No.1 Coffee Country

VANCOUVER, B.C. /ScoopCloud/ -- Ethiopia, Kenya and Uganda produce the highest quality coffee in the world, according to data from 1,229 professional tastings analyzed by Bean Poet to mark International Coffee Day (Oct. 1, 2020).

The data visualization shows grades for each of these coffees harvested from around the world between 2010 and 2018 and rated by professionals certified through the Coffee Quality Institute's rigorous training program (https://www.coffeeinstitute.org/).

Coffees from Ethiopia fall higher on the scale than those from any other country.

An interactive version of the graph at beanpoet.com allows users to click on the dots for more information about each individual coffee tested: https://www.beanpoet.com/best-coffee-country/

Birthplace of coffee still No. 1

Consumers looking for the best possible coffee should consider beans with African origins on their next trip to the local roaster.

"Coffee came out of Africa centuries ago, and even today the trained tastebuds of experts can recognize quality from the continent where it all began," said Erik Rolfsen, editor of Bean Poet. "The top three African countries combined export less than one-third of Brazil's output, but these are beans you're sure to find in the connoisseur's cupboard."

The top countries from each of the world's other major coffee-growing regions were, in order:
* South America: Colombia
* Central America: El Salvador
* Southeast Asia: Thailand
* North America: U.S.
* Asia: Taiwan

Data for the analysis came from records kept by the Coffee Quality Institute that are publicly available online.

Frisky Cat Café Opening in St Augustine

ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- Frisky Cat Café is just a few short weeks away from being the first cat café in St Augustine. Never heard of a cat café? Now's the chance to experience one. And, there are more coming to cities around the country. Frisky Cat Café is partnering with Bold Bean Coffee Roasters and will be located at 1092 S. Ponce De Leon.

So, what exactly is a cat café? Some may think it's a place to take you kitty for a coffee break or to meet up and play with other cats, but it's not. It's actually designed for people who love cats, but can't have one of their own. At the Frisky Cat Café, people have the opportunity to cozy up with a sweet, purring kitty when they want.

Upon entering Frisky Cat Café guests are welcomed by the scents of craft coffee, fresh baked goods and more. Guests are welcome to enjoy their favorite coffee while making new friends or even adopt one of the furry cat residents.

Cats are waiting beyond the café area in a room divided from the eatery by a door and windows. This creates a complete separation between the food and felines. However, guests are more than welcome to bring their food or drink with them into the cat lounge. Those with allergies, or who do not wish to visit the cat room, may enjoy a view of the cats through the glass panel. play.

Why a cat café?

"First and foremost, we're here to save lives," Carla Forrest, founder of Small Lives Matter, says. "Most cats are not able to handle the stress of living in cages at a shelter; they can shut down, become unfriendly and aggressive and seem 'un-adoptable' (a fast-track to euthanasia). We work with dedicated cat guardians to provide a quiet, interactive, free roaming and cageless environment where adult cats can thrive."

Cat café proceeds will directly support rescue efforts such as vet care, support for foster homes, and the trapping, neutering and returning of feral cats (commonly known as TNR, helping to curb the feral cat population).

"Our cat café is saving lives by enriching humans with cat interaction while providing relief for both stressed-out cats and humans," Forrest explains. "We believe people become much better people when they're around animals and we believe all cats are adoptable."

Don't believe it? Visit the Frisky Cat Café website and read all about the healing power of cat purrs. Much like people, cats and kittens need love, affection and a space to call home.

The Frisky Cat Café has a chic minimalistic vibe. The Nordic styles, comfy velvet furniture, furry pillows, floor futons, free WiFi, café tables and of course - kitties - create a luxe atmosphere that's sure to make people smile.

About Frisky Cat Café

Scheduled to open in February 2020, the Frisky Cat café is a cat lounge plus a café where great coffee and a fun and entertaining environment is created for its customers and cat residents.

Smart Sips Coffee Swims with the Sharks on Good Morning America

WALL, N.J. /ScoopCloud/ -- Smart Sips Coffee founder and president, Lara Nikola, went swimming with the sharks from Shark Tank as a guest on Good Morning America's newly-branded afternoon show called "Strahan and Sara," pitching her unique fun flavored coffees, lattes, cappuccinos and hot chocolates.

In her pitch to Sharks Mark Cuban, Lori Greiner, Barbara Corcoran, Daymond John and Kevin O'Leary, Nikola touted that you can drink your dessert without the calories, carbs or sugars. Smart Sips decadent flavored coffees are sugar-free, carb-free and two calories per cup.

Kevin O'Leary, otherwise known as "Mr. Wonderful," sampled Smart Sips' chocolate peanut butter coffee during the segment, calling it "damn good." Nikola explained how Smart Sips Coffee is not your ordinary cup of joe, saying, "We put excitement into the daily coffee drinking routine with flavors like brown sugar bourbon, chocolate peanut butter, blueberry cinnamon crumble and so much more."

Shark and QVC maven Lori Greiner shocked Nikola and the other sharks when she shared that this was not her first time sampling Smart Sips Coffee. After recognizing the packaging, she informed the audience that as a fan of flavored coffees herself, she had previously ordered Smart Sips Coffee on Amazon.

Taking the bait, the Sharks congratulated Nikola on the success of her e-commerce business she started out of her house six years ago and has since grown into a multi-million-dollar company. Shark Daymond John called her success "amazing," adding, "We have to find a way to be partners!"
