Peru Decaf

Rich caramel sweetness and bright citrus notes, crafted with zero caffeine compromises.

The Story

Great decaf should never taste like an afterthought. Grown across the lush Andean slopes of Piura and Amazonas in Northern Peru, this exceptional single-origin coffee proves that decaffeinated coffee can deliver all the depth, sweetness, and complexity of a premier harvest. Cultivated by the dedicated smallholder farmers of Cooperativa Agrícola de Servicios Norandino, each lot is washed, sun-dried, and gently decaffeinated using the 100% chemical-free Swiss Water Process to preserve pure terroir and authentic bean character. Roasted to a balanced medium, it yields a comforting, velvety cup with warm caramel tones and just a touch of sweet citrus clarity, making it the perfect pour from early afternoon into the quiet hours of the evening.
