Black coffee is a consumable item added to the game in the Fallout: New Vegas add-on Honest Hearts.

Characteristics[]

Boiled from roasted coyote tobacco chew and honey mesquite pods, black coffee is a good way to stay awake and alert. However, it comes with the negative drawback of making one less agile.

When drinking the coffee, a coffee mug may be added to the Courier's inventory, although there is a chance that it may break. The effects of the item to Intelligence and Agility depend on the level of one's Survival skill.

Notes[]

  • The healing effect that it grants is immediate, even in Hardcore mode.
  • It shares the same world model as a normal coffee mug, and because of this, it is empty when dropped.
  • The number of items that can be crafted at one time is limited by how many coffee pots are in the inventory, despite the coffee pot not being consumed during crafting.
  • Despite the coffee mug used in the recipe weighing 1 pound, the drink itself weighs only 0.02 pounds.
  • With a Survival skill of between 80 to 100, black coffee can be quite potent, giving a +6 to Intelligence, but with a hefty -3 to Agility.
  • Despite the recipe containing the addictive item coyote tobacco chew, the drink itself is non-addictive.
