This decaf coffee is processed at Descamex in Mexico using a water, chemical-free method, where water is used to remove caffeine and other solubles. The caffeine-free solution, still rich in flavor compounds, is reintroduced to the coffee seeds for reabsorption before drying. Finally, it's roasted to a medium roast level at our facility to deliver a delicious combination of mild acidity, and fruity sweetness.

Our water-processed decafs are done in a facility in Mexico called Descamex. In order to remove the caffeine in this process, green coffee is soaked in a water solution, which removes both the caffeine as well as other solubles in the coffee (flavor compounds, for instance). The water is removed from the seeds and run through a special filter that captures caffeine molecules and allows them to be strained from the solution. The solution—now containing flavor compounds but no caffeine—is then reintroduced to the green coffee seeds, which reabsorb the soluble materials. The coffee is then dried once more, and prepared for reexport.
