Decaf Medium Roast

Our current decaf origin is Honduras.

Smooth, balanced, and subtly sweet, this decaf is proof that flavor doesn’t need caffeine to shine. This is the decaf that turns “why drink decaf?” people into “I’ll just have a decaf” people.

We start with high-quality, certified organic beans sourced from one of our trusted cooperatives in either Peru, Honduras or Mexico, depending on seasonal availability. These coffees are selected for their unique flavor profiles, ensuring they stand out as fabulous decaffeinated offerings.

At the Descamex Mountain Water Decaffeination Plant in Veracruz, Mexico, caffeine is gently removed using pure water, steam, and carbon filtration - never chemicals. The result is a clean, chemical-free process that preserves the natural sweetness and character of the coffee.

This Decaf Medium Roast, sourced from Honduras and prepared by Higher Grounds Trading Co., offers a compelling look at how decaffeination techniques influence the final cup. By utilizing the Mountain Water Decaffeination process, this coffee avoids the use of chemical solvents, relying instead on pure water and solubility to gently remove caffeine while aiming to preserve the inherent characteristics of the bean.

Generally, processing methods play a pivotal role in shaping the body and acidity of a coffee, often acting as the bridge between the farm’s terroir and the roaster’s profile. When evaluating a medium roast, enthusiasts often find that the balance between roast development and origin character creates a versatile experience. To better understand the nuances found in your cup, we recommend consulting the flavor wheel to identify specific descriptors that emerge during your brew, helping you refine your palate as you explore the diverse landscape of decaffeinated offerings.
