About This Coffee

La Serranía Decaf is a Colombian coffee sourced from more than 20 producers across an isolated section of the Central Cordillera (Pitalito, Acevedo, Palestina, Timaná and Suaza). It is a Natural EA Decaf processed at the Descafecol plant in Manizales using ethyl acetate derived from sugar cane, removing ~99.7% of caffeine while preserving original flavors. Tasting notes include vanilla, berries, banana, watermelon, caramel, citrus, malt and toffee, with soft acidity and a long aftertaste.

Proud Mary Coffee

Nolan and Shari Hirte opened Proud Mary in Collingwood in 2009. A trip along the American west coast had shown him what specialty coffee could be and he returned to Melbourne determined to bring that approach to a country that was, at the time, an espresso nation. Nolan first attended Cup of Excellence in 2011; since then, Proud Mary staff have served on international juries for over a decade. Proud Mary became one of Melbourne's first roasters to champion filter coffee and single-origin brewing. The roastery categorizes its offerings along a Mild-to-Wild spectrum. Their Ghost Rider blend, a natural-processed combination of Brazilian and Ethiopian coffees, is award-winning. A second roasting operation now runs from Portland, Oregon, supplying American wholesale accounts and retail customers with locally roasted beans.
