Coffee Made from Soybeans?
Will Soy Espresso be the next big taste trend in coffee shops? It will if Marina Kushner has anything to say about it. Kushner, founder of Soy Coffee LLC, sent an email last week introducing Soyfee, a soybean and caffeine-free coffee blend she is selling to health food and gourmet shops (and via her website).
According to the press release, Kushner developed the product for health conscious consumers interested in eliminating caffeine and upping their soy intake. She worked with a company that tested a variety of roasting techniques for soybeans. The blends were tried on her husband, friends and relatives for fresh brewed taste and aroma.
"Our product is unique in that our customers can actually munch on the coffee grounds after the coffee is brewed. The grounds are perfectly healthy, and contain all the health benefits of soy like vitamins, isoflavones, genistein and daidzein. Nothing is lost in the brewing or roasting process."
Who is the ideal soy coffee drinker? Decaf drinkers who already purchase more expensive Swiss Water Process Method decaffeinated coffee and women considering soy supplements for relief of menopausal symptoms are also seen as potential drinkers of Soyfee.
Soyfee comes in eight flavors including: original non-flavored, dark roast, house blend, french vanilla, hazelnut, almond amaretto, chai and mocha. Soyfee can be purchased whole bean or ground. A 10 oz. package is $9.95 plus shipping.
