Jolene Coffee is a new venture from Red Hot Chili Peppers frontman Anthony Kiedis and longtime friend Shane Powers, and the ready-to-drink coffee is made to fuel fans and concert culture. This smooth, energizing beverage shares the taste of beans ethically sourced from a co-op in Peru—what's more, Jolene Coffee says, "5% of our coffee purchase is donated back to the all-female community of coffee growers from which we source our coffee beans."
At launch, there are two flavors: Black, a cold brew, and White, a creamy oat milk latte. These canned coffee drinks are organic, free from artificial sweeteners, vegan-friendly and dairy-free.
Beyond their convenient canned packaging, Jolene Coffee will appear in signature cocktails at select Live Nation venues.
