Context

This decaffeinated offering from Kurasu draws from Ethiopia's Sidamo region, where heirloom varietals thrive in ideal growing conditions. The beans undergo washed processing using the Mountain Water Process, a chemical-free decaffeination method that aims to preserve the coffee's inherent character. Roasted to medium, this lot emphasizes floral and stone-fruit notes—peach and black cherry—alongside bright citrus and subtle caramel sweetness. The profile demonstrates that decaffeinated coffees need not sacrifice complexity; Ethiopian origins are celebrated for their naturally tea-like clarity and nuanced aromatics, qualities this medium roast appears to honor while offering a gentler caffeine footprint.
