THE STORY
Decaf El Carmen | Colombia | Whole Bean
Our Colombian sugarcane decaf is a sweet cocoa like coffee. Notes of milk chocolate and almond domiante the cup. What makes this decaf different from every other decaf we've tried is that it is fresh crop coffee. Often decaffeinated coffee is old crop, left over from the last harvest. This coffee however is fresh, and you can taste it!
This coffee comes via the Red Associations network in Colombia, which aims to help farmers groups achieve their self-identified goals : To achieve stable and sustainable prices for community coffee lots through improved quality control, shared knowledge, and a connection to the specialty coffee market. Red in Spanish means network, representing the producers and roasters working together to create a sustainable value chain. We are proud to be a part of this growing network.
