This EP coffee is decaffeinated using the EA (Ethyl Acetate) method, also known as the Sugar Cane Decaffeination process. The coffee is sourced from Descafecol, a leading decaffeination cooperative in Colombia. The EA process is a natural and environmentally friendly method that uses ethyl acetate derived from sugar cane to remove caffeine from the beans. This method is known for preserving the delicate flavors and aromatic qualities of the coffee while ensuring that the beans are fully decaffeinated without the use of harsh chemicals. The beans undergo the process at Descafecol, which is committed to high-quality decaffeination and sustainability. Descafecol works closely with local Colombian farmers to ensure that the decaffeination process maintains the integrity of the coffee’s original profile, while providing economic support and fair pricing to farmers. With the EA process, the coffee maintains a clean, smooth cup with the natural flavors intact—ensuring that roasters and coffee drinkers alike can enjoy a premium decaf option without compromising on quality.
