Story
Finding exceptiional specialty decaf is rare. Finding one that rivals the complexity and vibrancy of a world-class caffeinated coffee is even rarer. This remarkable microlot challenges everything you thought you knew about decaf, delivering an expressive, fruit-forward cup with notes of lychee, peach, dried strawberry, cardamom, tropical fruit, cinnamon, and rosewater. If you've been searching for a truly exciting decaf, this is it.
Produced by award-winning Colombian brothers Alex and Diego Bermúdez, this coffee begins with carefully selected ripe Castillo cherries before undergoing a 36-hour anaerobic fermentation followed by a proprietary yeast co-fermentation that enhances its vibrant fruit character. A controlled thermal shock process helps preserve these complex aromatics before the coffee is gently decaffeinated using the natural sugarcane (ethyl acetate) process, renowned for maintaining sweetness, clarity, and balance.
Derived from sugarcane, ethyl acetate is a naturally occurring compound found in many fruits and is widely regarded as one of the most effective and sustainable methods of decaffeination. It removes caffeine while preserving the coffee's distinctive flavor and aromatic complexity, resulting in a decaf that drinks every bit like a premium specialty coffee.
This is proof that decaf doesn't have to be a compromise
