Colombia | Popayan Reserve | Decaf
Brown Sugar, Fig, Spice
This Single Origin decaf from Popayan, Colombia, delivers a clean and vibrant cup that will leave you wanting more. No fear of missing out here, with flavour notes of caramelised fig, raw sugar, & brown spice. This coffee is decaffeinated using ethyl acetate (derivative from sugar-cane). It selectively removes the caffeine from the coffee while leaving all the other tasty flavour compounds. Ethyl acetate occurs in ripening fruit and is a highly volatile compound meaning that none of it remains after the coffee has been roasted.
