Specialty Coffee – Decaf
Discover the irresistible taste of decaffeinated coffee that will captivate you. High-quality coffee from Colombia that will charm you with its harmonious flavor, full of a chocolatey experience and sweetness. Enjoy the great taste of decaffeinated coffee without keeping you up at night.
Aware that the decaffeination process enhances sweetness and reduces acidity, we carefully select coffee with high sweetness and low acidity.
Decaffeination using sugarcane utilizes a naturally occurring compound, ethyl acetate (EA), to remove caffeine from coffee. The EA process is relatively simple. Coffee beans are moistened with water, and EA is distributed throughout the bean. EA binds with caffeine in the bean and extracts it, while most other aromatic compounds remain untouched. Once the desired caffeine level is achieved, the remaining EA residues on the beans are removed by steaming.

The Story Behind This Coffee
This decaf beauty hails from the Tolima region of Colombia, grown at altitudes between 1,400 and 2,100 meters above sea level.
What makes it truly special is its natural sugarcane decaffeination process, which gently removes caffeine without stripping away the flavor.
This method uses ethyl acetate (EA) – a naturally occurring compound – that binds to caffeine and removes it while preserving the sweet, rich aromatic profile.
The result? A decaf coffee that tastes like the real deal – because it practically is.
Cultivation & Processing
After harvest, the coffee is washed using a traditional wet process, which brings out clarity and gentle notes of chocolate and almond.
The beans are then sun-dried on patios under the Colombian sky, allowing them to slowly develop a smooth, round flavor.
Thanks to the unique sugarcane decaf method, this coffee retains its natural sweetness and subtle fruity undertones, making it stand out among decafs.
Exceptional Coffee with an Exceptional Score
The cupping score is a trusted method for evaluating the taste quality of coffee. To qualify as specialty grade, a coffee must score above 80 points.
Supermarket coffees usually score lower – often below 80 – and are produced in bulk with price and productivity in mind, not flavor.
A high cupping score is your shortcut to true coffee quality – even in a decaf.
Best Brewing Methods
Ideal for espresso, where its rich body and smooth sweetness come to life.
Also shines as pour-over or French press, especially when you're craving something comforting in the evening.
For best results, use a medium grind and fresh filtered water. Then just sit back and enjoy – caffeine not included.
