Decaf, Colombia

Our sugarcane decaf coffee is made using a natural decaffeination method that keeps the flavour intact—without the caffeine. Also known as the ethyl acetate process, this method uses a compound naturally derived from fermented sugarcane to gently remove caffeine from green coffee beans.

This decaffeinated offering from Industry Beans showcases the potential of processed Colombian coffee. Sourced from Colombia, a country celebrated for its balanced, approachable cup profiles, this decaf invites exploration of how flavor development evolves when caffeine removal enters the equation. Decaffeinated coffees occupy a distinct category in specialty coffee—the decaffeination process itself influences final cup character, sometimes contributing subtle shifts in body or sweetness perception. Tasting this lot offers an opportunity to consider how origin character persists through processing decisions, using the flavor wheel as a reference for identifying which sensory markers come through in the cup.
