Decaffeinated with a Mountain Water process which helps to clear away about 99% of the caffeine originally found in the beans, this method of filtration doesn’t remove the flavour, aroma, and characteristics of the beans as a whole.

It means that we’re left with a coffee that remains packed full of delicious flavour, with notes of rich caramel chocolate, lemon, and sweet honey.

Every coffee growing origin has a different set of characteristics when it comes to the final cup, whether it’s fruity and floral or chocolatey and full the origin of speciality coffee is always celebrated.

The last part of our coffee review is what we tasted in the coffee. Speciality coffee has some incredible flavour notes (more than wine), some dark and rich while others on the opposite end of the flavour spectrum are light and fruity, we try and explain what we taste in the coffee however like with many complex tasting foods or drinks it is also down to perception and personal opinion.
