About Lifeline
What is Lifeline?
Lifeline is a Colombian light roast coffee from Aerial Resupply Coffee, roasted in Charlottesville, Virginia. Named after Air Force Pararescue — the people who show up when everything else has already gone wrong. Bright, flavorful, and built to deliver more than you'd expect from a light roast.
Where is it roasted?
In-house at the Aerial Resupply Coffee roastery at 705 Dale Ave, Charlottesville, VA. Every batch roasted to order.
What does it taste like?
Bright citrus and stonefruit with a clean, light body. Higher acidity than medium or dark roasts, with more of the bean's natural flavor coming through. The flavor hits harder than the roast level suggests.
Who is it for?
Light roast drinkers who want actual flavor, not just a weak cup. Works in drip, pour-over, and K-cup. Also pulls cleanly for cold brew.
Is Lifeline available as a subscription?
Yes. Lifeline is available through the 1st Caffeine Regiment subscription — save 15% on every order, with $1 per order donated to Service Dogs of Virginia.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does light roast have more caffeine than dark roast?
Yes. Lighter roast profiles preserve more caffeine than longer dark roasts. Lifeline hits harder on caffeine than it looks.
Is Lifeline a weak coffee?
No. Light roast means lighter body and brighter flavor — not less caffeine, not less intensity. Lifeline is built to deliver the flavor profile of a quality Colombian bean without the heaviness of a dark roast.
What's the difference between Lifeline and Firewatch?
Both are Colombian roasts. Firewatch is a medium roast — smooth, balanced, lower acidity. Lifeline is a light roast — brighter, more citrus-forward, higher acidity. Same origin, different mission profile.
Is Lifeline veteran-owned?
Aerial Resupply Coffee is a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), founded by a U.S. Army logistics officer and Bronze Star recipient. Privately held. Not publicly traded.
