Our traditionally decaffeinated Colombian coffee is bold and flavorful at a medium roast. You may be missing caffeine in this offering, but certainly not body or flavor. The overall cup is smooth with balanced acidity and flavor notes of creamy dark chocolate and walnut.

Bold-bodied coffees have a heavier, thicker mouthfeel, which is often accompanied by stone fruit and chocolate notes.
A coffee’s process describes how the seed (aka the coffee bean) is separated from the coffee cherry. Popular methods include washed, dry, and honey, but there are many other processes that put special emphasis on different aspects of these methods.
