Whatever assumptions you may have about decaf coffee up until this point, we hope you'll lay them aside and give this one a try.

TRUST THE PROCESS | Processing for this unique adaptation of a decaffeinated coffee happens in two stages – and across two continents! First, coffee cherries are handpicked throughout Hambela at peak ripeness and delivered to a drying station for traditional Ethiopian natural processing. Then, they make the voyage to Bremen, Germany, where they undergo a fascinating and confusing science experiment known as Ethyl Acetate Decaffeination (EAD). The TLDR: a sugar alcohol byproduct is used as a solvent to help dissolve the caffeine out of the coffee as it is steamed. 

TAKE A SIP | Decaf drinkers won't be surprised by this, but we should probably mention one thing at the jump: this coffee might look a little different right out of the bag. The decaffeination process leaves its mark on the beans themselves, giving them a red-ish hue and a slightly "oily" appearance. 

Thanks to advancements in EAD, decaffeinated coffees have come a looooonnnggg way in recent years. We've tasted and featured some delicious examples, and this is easily one of our favorites. It has great acidity (especially for a decaf!) and showcases its original natural processing beautifully. Red stone fruit, like cherries, mingle with a lovely peach note in the fruit department. The sweetness is tall, dark, and handsome like molasses, and the texture is smooth and rich, like milk chocolate.
