This decaffeinated coffee originates from the Amazonas region of Peru, grown by various smallholder farmers at elevations between 1200-1750 meters above sea level. The coffee is produced by JUMARP and Cenfrocafe cooperatives. It features a blend of varieties including Caturra, Bourbon, Typica, Pache, and Catimor. The beans are fully washed and decaffeinated using the Swiss Water Process (also referred to as Mountain Water Process), a chemical-free method that removes 99.9% of caffeine while preserving flavor. The coffee offers tasting notes of dark chocolate, brown sugar, nuttiness, blackcurrant, and citrus. This organic Peruvian coffee is roasted by Pair Cupworks.
