About the coffee: This lot comes from a collective of smallholder farmers from Quindio. Tabi varieties are individually cupped for each farmer in order to only use the best lots for this lot (coffees 85+).
Afterward, these coffees are blended, milled in Bogota, and transported to DESCAFECOL where caffeine is naturally removed from coffee using sugarcane ethyl acetate. This decaffeination process enhances sweetness while maintaining the integrity of the flavour.
About this decaffeination process:
The EA (Ethyl Acetate) sugarcane process is a natural method that uses ethyl acetate, derived from sugarcane, to remove caffeine. The process begins by steaming the green coffee beans to open their pores. The beans are then soaked in a solution of water and ethyl acetate, which selectively bonds with the caffeine molecules and extracts them. After the caffeine is removed, the beans are steamed again to eliminate any residual ethyl acetate. This method preserves the coffee’s natural flavors and is often considered a more natural decaffeination process compared to others.
