Last Of Us Coffee Contains Post-Apocalyptic Ingredient For That Extra Kick

As a dedicated gamer like Joel Miller from The Last of Us, I’ve got a soft spot for a strong cup of coffee to keep me alert during those long gaming sessions. While I might not be adventurous enough to try mushroom-infused brews just yet, some fellow fans out there might find the courage. The recent trend of mushroom blend coffees is intriguing, but it’s still leaving traditionalists on the fence. However, Four Sigmatic, the pioneers in the mushroom coffee industry, are teaming up with HBO’s The Last of Us for a special edition blend that might just win over even the most conventional coffee enthusiasts like myself.

As a gamer diving into my next marathon session, I’ve discovered this unique brew that’s a mix of lion’s mane and cordyceps mushrooms, enriched with Vitamin B12 and coffee bean extract. The creators claim it boosts mental clarity and energy levels – sounds like just what I need to stay sharp and focused during those late-night gaming battles! Known for its presence in mushroom coffee, lion’s mane is a popular ally, while cordyceps have been scientifically proven to combat inflammation.

In his initial appearance, fungi expert Paul Stamets stated that Cordyceps cannot infect humans. However, he noted that the storyline was creatively crafted with elements of mycology and playing on a common fear known as Mycophobia (fear of fungi). It’s understandable for people to be wary of things that are powerful yet shrouded in mystery and misconception. Thus, I commend the writers for using this opportunity to guide us on a thrilling sci-fi journey while capitalizing on the public’s fascination, apprehension, and appreciation for fungi.

To brew the coffee, use it as you would any other ground coffee. In a drip coffee maker, French press, or pour-over, for every 12 ounces of water, add four tablespoons of coffee. Enjoy your freshly brewed cup!

Four Sigmatic currently has a promotion going. One bag of their blended mix is available for $14 (originally priced at $20), while a set of two bags is being offered at $28 (previously $40).

Beginning April 13, you can catch the premiere of Season 2 for HBO’s hit series “The Last of Us” only on Max. Additionally, eager fans won’t have to wait much longer as “The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered” will be released on PC platforms starting April 3.
