Ethyl Acetate (EA) decaffeination is a natural and widely used process for producing high-quality decaf coffee. Despite its technical name, Ethyl Acetate is a naturally occurring compound found in fruits and vegetables, and in this case, it is derived from sugarcane fermentation rather than synthetic chemicals. Combined with pure water, it is used in a gentle extraction process that selectively removes caffeine while preserving the structure and flavour of the coffee.

Unlike other decaffeination processes that can sometimes feel like a 'reset' for lower-quality coffee, where green coffee is put through a 'spa' before being resold as decaf. Our approach with Colombia EA Decaf is different. For our preshipment samples (PSS), we receive green coffee before decaffeination takes place. The resulting cup is enhanced, rather than masked.
