From the roaster

The Colombia Nogales Low-Caff is one of the most technically innovative coffees we've come across. Developed by Oscar and Angie Hernández at Finca Los Nogales in Huila, Colombia, this process removes 75–97% of the caffeine using only natural substances from the coffee cherries themselves — no outside chemicals, no shortcuts. What you're left with is a juicy, tart, and herbaceous cup with notes of strawberry, apple, and chamomile. It's avant-garde in every sense, and proof that low-caff doesn't have to mean low-interest.

Context

This naturally decaffeinated coffee from Finca Los Nogales in Colombia's Huila region represents Oscar and Angie Hernández's approach to creating a lower-caffeine option without sacrificing flavor complexity. Methodical Coffee highlights strawberry, apple, and chamomile—a delicate profile that suggests the natural decaffeination process has preserved the fruit-forward character typical of natural-processed coffees from this region. The tea-like quality of chamomile paired with bright stone fruit makes this an approachable choice for those seeking caffeine reduction without forgoing nuance. It's a reminder that specialty decaf needn't be an afterthought: when careful sourcing and processing meet thoughtful roasting, complex flavor remains possible.
