Decaf - Colombia / Huila

Regular price $14.00 Sale

We pride ourselves in upholding the same quality standards for selecting our decaf as we do any other coffee purchase.  Our goal is that you taste it and say "this is a decaf?!"  

This coffee is ethyl acetate decaffeinated: this naturally occurring ester (present in bananas as well as a by-product of fermented sugars) can be isolated and used as a solvent to bond with and remove caffeine from green coffee. First, the coffee is sorted and steamed for 30 minutes under low pressure in order to open the coffee seeds’ pores and prepare them for decaffeination. The coffee is placed in a solution of both water and ethyl acetate, where the E.A. will begin to bond with the salts of chlorogenic acids inside the seeds. The tank will be drained and re-filled over the course of eight hours until the caffeine is no longer detected. The seeds are steamed once more to remove the ethyl acetate traces, though E.A. is only harmful to humans in very high quantities (400 parts per million or more). The coffee is then dried and polished for export.

We are excited to share this coffee-lovers decaf option with you.  It's a very balanced and sweet cup with notes of chocolate chips, lemon candy, and praline.
 

TASTING NOTES: SEMI-SWEET CHOCOLATE /// CANDIED LEMON /// PRALINE
