Colombia, Antioquia DECAF
Antioquia
The sugar cane process is a chemical-free process, where no additional substances are in contact with the green coffee. The process begins with a pre-treatment with very low-pressure steam to let the beans swell. With the help of natural produced Ethyl Acetate, at least 97% of the caffeine can be removed.
Therefore, locally grown sugarcane is fermented to produce natural E.A. The beans are soaked in water with the E.A., which removes the caffeine. Low pressure saturated steam is then applied following the extraction process to remove any traces of the E.A.

Additional Information
Same as our Regional Single Original but with a twist: our regional coffee goes through a Sugar Cane process to leave its caffeine content in Colombia before starting its journey to Ireland.
Ethyl Acetate, already present in coffee, fruits and vegetables happens to be very good at removing Caffeine, so we combine natural Ethyl Acetate coming from the Sugar Cane with high mountain spring water to gently remove the caffeine from our regional coffee while keeping within the bean all those beautiful flavours we all love and enjoy.
