Description

Ethiopia has some of the richest, most flavorful coffees in the world and this decaf from Ethiopia is no exception.  This single-origin decaf is simply the best decaf we have ever tasted, and we think you'll agree.  A medium-light roasted decaf that is deliciously sweet with hints of honey, graham cracker and juicy lime.  

A great option when you don't want the caffeine, but you do want a super flavorful coffee.

This coffee is a medium-light roast, but as with any decaffeinated coffee, the beans appear darker than the actual flavor signifies. 

Mountain Water Process Decaffeination

The Mountain Water Process is a chemical-free, eco-friendly method for decaffeinating coffee using pure water from Mexico's Pico de Orizaba glacier, removing ~99% of caffeine while preserving flavor. Patented by Descamex in Veracruz, Mexico, this method involves soaking green coffee in water and filtering it through activated carbon to remove caffeine before reintroducing flavor compounds.

 No chemical solvents (like methylene chloride) are used; the process relies on water and charcoal filters.  The beans are also able to retain their original, natural, and nuanced flavors because the water used for soaking becomes saturated with coffee solubles (flavor compounds).

The Process Steps:
  1. Steaming/Soaking: Green coffee beans are steamed and soaked in pristine mountain water to dissolve caffeine.
  2. Filtering: The water, now containing both caffeine and flavor components, passes through activated carbon filters that trap the caffeine.
  3. Re-infusion: The caffeine-free water (now Green Coffee Extract) is used to soak a new batch of beans, allowing the caffeine to be removed without stripping the coffee's flavor.
