                                While caffeine content varies by brand and preparation, some gold coffees, particularly from specialty roasters, can have a surprisingly similar or even higher caffeine kick than a typical medium roast, despite their lighter appearance. This is because the roasting process does not burn away the caffeine as much as it does other flavor compounds.
