The best part of waking up is blood in your cup! According to Metal Injection, Concepts Café, the company that brought us Cannibal Corpse’s Cranial Extraction Cold Brew has brought us another metal-themed offering. This time they’re teaming up with former Sepultura and current Cavalera Conspiracy members Max and Iggor Cavalera.
Their new venture is called Blood Brothers coffee, and they’ve got a package called the Bloody Sarcophagus Promo Box which features a limited edition “Blood Brothers” nitro can, a 12 oz bag of whole bean or ground coffee, and a custom sticker. Apparently Metal Injection says that the coffee was a semifinalist in the 2023 Sprudgie Awards, which is supposedly very prestigious in the coffee world despite the incredibly silly-sounding name.
Concepts Café has this to say about their ambitious new coffee:
“Collaborating with the Tribe, we wanted to accomplish two things with Blood Brothers…: 1) further push the initiative that Metal has a place in the coffee world beyond the burnt leftovers from the factory floor & 2) share the often overlooked, yet some of the best coffee in the world, that comes out of Brazil,” said Concepts Cafe.
“The collective challenge was how do you package 40 years of legacy from such an influential & integral part of Metal history into a bag/can of coffee…? Furthermore, how do you represent Brazilian culture, and most importantly, how do you humbly present the best offering to metalheads around the world?
“But Max & Iggor, and the rest of the Cavalera Tribe, actually made it pretty easy for us once we started working with them. When you see the level of passion & devotion they have for the music and touring for the fans, it really is awe-inspiring; so everything kinda just started to come together on this project ‘organically’.
“Marina (Concept’s head artist) & I had the initial idea that if we could make everything organic enough to pay tribute to Max’s love for camo, we might just pull this off. How’d we do…? LOL”
Apparently the Max & Iggor Cavalera’s Blood Brothers Coffee Cold Nitro Brew Cans will be available in other varieties soon including espresso, non-dairy, and flavored latte versions, for those who want their metal coffee a little more bougie.
