What it means
Max Caf
A coffee company called Cocaine Coffee was always going to make a Max Caf.
About half Arabica, half Robusta.
Too much? Try our Breakfast Blend+ for a smooth morning roast with less Robusta. A nice compromise.
From Max Caf to zero
Four coffees, from our highest-Robusta blend down to Swiss Water® decaf. Same specialty-grade standard all the way down.

No. It is simply high-quality roasted coffee. The name points to the mission, not an ingredient. Same name. Different powder.

We don’t lab-test every batch, so we don’t print caffeine numbers. What we can tell you is what’s in the bag. Max Caf is about half Arabica, half Robusta: our highest-Robusta blend. Breakfast Blend+ is our smooth Breakfast Blend with some Robusta blended in, less than Max Caf. Robusta is generally accepted to have more caffeine than Arabica. Draw your own conclusions.
Going the other way? House Decaf is Swiss Water® Process decaf, and Half Caf is half regular, half decaf.
Cocaine Coffee™ is a specialty coffee company built around Colombia and a bold idea: replace coca production with coffee cultivation. Every coffee we sell is specialty grade (SCA 80+), and our Colombian single origins score 84 to 87.
Our name is provocative by design — but our mission is serious.
Yes. The O.G. comes from Caicedo, Antioquia — officially the first non-violent municipality in Colombia. It earned that title because of coffee: in 2002 residents linked arms at the El Vaho bridge, unarmed, to stop armed groups seizing their harvest. The town confirmed the commitment by popular vote in 2007 and 2013. Colombia's Centro Nacional de Memoria Histórica hosts the community's own account. Read the full story →
Cocaine for Coffee™ is our giving program, built on a simple belief: specialty coffee can compete with coca, and communities shaped by the drug trade can rebuild through coffee.
Each month we set aside the greater of 1% of net profit or $100 for charitable giving, split evenly between organizations working in Colombian coffee-growing communities and addiction recovery in Tampa Bay. See where we give →
Cocaine for Coffee is a program of Vibeworks, Inc. It is not a charity, and purchases are not tax-deductible.
Our Colombian single-origin roasts come from the most respected coffee-producing country in the world — grown at high altitude in regions known for rich soil, ideal climate, and exceptional flavor.
The O.G. from Caicedo, Antioquia. The Morning Fix and El Flaco Grande from Ebéjico, Antioquia. ORGANIC Clean Bean from the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta. The O.G., Morning Fix and El Flaco Grande pages each list that coffee's origin, region, process and SCA score.
Unfortunately, the same conditions that make our coffee delicious also provide the perfect environment for coca to flourish. It is our goal to help the community decide between the two — and leave cocaine for coffee.
Yes. ORGANIC Clean Bean is USDA Certified Organic and Fair Trade Certified — single-origin Colombian coffee grown in the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta. It’s available now. Our other Colombian roasts are specialty-grade (SCA 84+) but not certified organic — and we say so plainly.
Specialty coffee scores 80+ on the Specialty Coffee Association's 100-point scale, graded by certified Q-graders on aroma, flavor, body and balance. Every coffee we sell clears that bar. Our Colombian single origins go further: The Morning Fix (84), The O.G. (84+) and El Flaco Grande (87). Higher scores also mean better prices for farmers, which is the whole point.
No.
Cocaine Coffee is about ending illegal drug cultivation, not celebrating it. The name sparks conversation — the mission creates change.
Caicedo, the town The O.G. comes from, voted twice to declare itself non-violent after losing people to the conflict. We take that seriously, and we'd rather you judged us on where the coffee comes from than on the name.
If the name made you curious, good. If the mission made you stay, even better.
Our dealer is a roaster in California. Our New Roasts — the espresso blends, Ethiopia, Bali Blue, Max Caf, Breakfast Blend+, decaf, cold brew, flavored coffees and single-serve cups — are specialty grade (SCA 80+), roasted in small batches by our partner roastery in California, and ship from there, usually within 2–5 business days. If your order also includes coffee from our Tampa roastery, it may arrive in two boxes. Shipping is still one charge for the whole order.
