  • Colombia is decaffeinated using high mountain spring water and Ethyl Acetate (EA), a natural by-product of sugarcane processing. EA is present in every coffee cherry in its natural state (as well as in many fruits and vegetables). This water-EA process allows for gentle extraction of the caffeine from the bean and avoids excessive heat or pressure which maintains the natural structure and flavor of the coffee bean.
  • Brasil and Guatemala uses the Swiss Water decaffeination method which is a 100% chemical-free process. Using pure water, the caffeine in coffee beans is gently removed until they are 99.9% caffeine-free, without compromising the coffee’s unique body, flavour and aroma characteristics.
