Our iconic decaf has been updated – new origin, new process, now organic!
With expansion of our coffee line to 100% organic, it meant it was time to make some changes.
Previously, our Decaf coffee was Colombian in origin and used the EA decaffeination process. To sum it up, Ethyl Acetate (EA) uses a special combination of pure water and EA which gently extracts caffeine from the coffee beans. EA is obtained from natural sources like sugar cane.
Our new Decaf uses the Swiss Water® process, which is based in Vancouver, contrary to the Swiss name. This natural decaf process removes 99.9% of caffeine from coffee through an organic, chemical-free process.

As a part of our mission, we always deliver Fairtrade, ethically sourced coffees. With this update, we can decaffeinate and roast knowing that the coffee and the process is organic, creating a smooth, clean decaf coffee where you can taste the origin flavours without any chemicals or caffeine!
