Colombia Popayan Sugarcane Decaf Coffee


An unbelievably sweet, caffeine-like decaf using a revolutionary Sugar Cane decaf process.
The recent arrival of sugarcane decaf coffees really shook our opinion on decaf. This natural process avoids excessive temperatures and leaves a coffee with enhanced sweetness which roasts and tastes much more like the original, caffeinated coffee. Gone is the bizarre twang of old school decaf as now it is far more sweet, balanced and delicate.
This decaf process is completed in the country of origin, which leaves a larger share of the profits in Colombia itself and is substantially more sustainable. The Popayan Reserve Program involves 67 selected farms in the department of Cauca and gives work directly to at least 400 people in harvest times. The commitment of this program is to offer coffees that are sweet and balanced with a min score of 83.5 Points, and encourages farmers to get better as they get even better premiums once they achieve a cup above 85 points.
Expect a caffeine-like, sweet coffee with tasting notes of dark cacao, toffee apple and panela.
