We buy decaffeinated beans processed using the natural 'Swiss Water' or CO2, sometimes called 'Sparkling Water' method. The quality of the beans we choose means that although lacking in 'buzz', the character in the cup is hard to differentiate from regular coffee.
NOTE: No decaffeinated coffee is 100% caffeine-free, there is always a tiny trace of caffeine in the finished product.

As low as £12.00If you give this coffee to someone without telling them it's decaffeinated you will always be greeted with the same look of astonishment when they find out! Firstly because we apply the same criteria for excellence to the coffee we choose to decaffeinate as we do to all of our Grand Cru coffees. Expect flavours of dark chocolate, raisin, plum, liquorice, malt, black cherry and tobacco. Secondly, the method of decaffeination is designed to remove only the caffeine and not the precious flavour compounds that give coffee its character. The Mountain Water Process involves immersing the coffee beans in water to extract the 99.9% of the caffeine. No chemicals are used, and a filtering process allows the beans to maintain their characteristic flavour. The Mountain Water Decaf process uses clear, pure water from the glaciers of the Pico de Orizaba Mountains in Mexico, although often the coffee we choose is not in itself Mexican. This dark roast makes a phenomenally good espresso or base for a latte and cappuccino.

£25.00The anaerobic natural process lends the cup a developed complex fruitiness, creamy body with complex, intricate flavours and less bitterness than other coffee. This has come through in the cup as orange and lime, complex chocolate and caramel. Using the oxygen free fermentation style, though more time consuming, offers farmers almost complete control compared to the normal fermentation process, which offers a less consistent outcome. Scored a whopping 84.25 by the independent coffee graders of the SCAA (Specialty Coffee Association of America) higher than most non-decaffeinated speciality coffees! The only thing you’re not losing is sleep! This coffee comes not only from the revered coffee-growing nation of Panama, but from one of the most unique coffee projects within that country, if not the world. Creativa Coffee District in Chiriqui is a coffee mill, but it’s also a cultural project.
