The key to good decaf is starting with a superior bean! This Colombian is of the highest quality and managed expertly through the German, strictly-controlled MC decaf process.  The result is phenomenal. Chocolate, coffee, deep flavors. Luxuriously silky in your mouth. Better than every non-decaf on shelves today.

A gorgeous bean that opens up like a fine wine in the cup. Layers of fruit come through: black currant and raspberries are clearest. Hints of chocolate and a bit of grapefruit. As the bean ages, the grapefruit moves to center stage. Some spice flavors, like nutmeg and cinnamon, emerge on the finish. Very sophisticated, bright and balanced. A personal favorite of the Roaster!

This cup starts off with a deep, dark, fruity aroma that says “sweet.” The dominant flavors that stand out are milk chocolate with a touch of hazelnuts and brown sugar. The body is exceptionally smooth and silky, with a rich, buttery mouthfeel. There is a cocoa powder dryness on the finish with a real coffee taste mixed with a light citrusy tartness. This is a very elegant cup of coffee. Single Estate.

This unique espresso blend combines top quality beans from the 2008 crop to create a balanced cocoa-musty-nuttiness with a distinct bittersweet-grilled pineapple tone. The fragrance is chocolaty and powerful. The clean, strong flavors linger on the palate and compliment milk-based drinks.
