Context

Sourced from the Huila region of Colombia, this decaffeinated offering from H+S Coffee Roasters utilizes the sugarcane ethyl acetate (EA) method. This process is often favored for its ability to remove caffeine while preserving the inherent characteristics of the green coffee bean. By using a naturally occurring solvent derived from fermented sugar, producers can target caffeine molecules without the high heat or pressure sometimes associated with other decaffeination techniques. You can learn more about the nuances of these processing methods to understand how they influence the final cup.

When evaluating this coffee, the roaster highlights notes of cherry, citrus, and caramel. While these specific descriptors provide a starting point, you may find it helpful to consult the flavor wheel to identify and articulate the subtle complexities present in your brew. This lot serves as a refined example of how careful processing can maintain a vibrant profile in a decaffeinated format.
