This coffee is decaffeinated using the Sugar Cane Process, a natural method that preserves the coffee’s original flavor while gently removing caffeine. The key ingredient in this process is ethyl acetate (EA)—a compound derived from fermented sugar cane and also found naturally in fruits.

The decaffeination process begins by lightly steaming green (unroasted) coffee beans to open their pores. The beans are then soaked in the EA solution, where the compound binds with the caffeine and draws it out of the bean. This cycle is repeated over several hours until the caffeine is fully removed. A second round of steaming clears out any remaining EA, and the beans are then dried and packaged, ready for roasting.

This method is valued for being both effective and more selective than traditional chemical processes. Because it's gentler and allows the coffee to maintain its unique origin characteristics, resulting in a decaf that doesn't taste like decaf.

Perfect for anyone looking to enjoy great coffee, day or night.
