DECAF COLOMBIA De Cana Chocolate / Stone fruit / Peach Biscuits
£6.50 – £24.00
Description
This Colombian decaf is cupped specifically for their quality and sourced by single-origin, either region or farm. We call them Decaf De Caña because they’re custom decaffeinated in Colombia, using a special, natural process that utilizes a solvent of sugarcane, which is derived from locally grown sugarcane.
The process works by soaking green coffee in a solution of E.A., which bonds to the salts of chlorogenic acid in the coffee and allows for the removal of caffeine. The coffee is removed from the solvent and steamed at low pressure to remove the E.A. compounds, and the finished product retains its flavor integrity but contains almost no caffeine at all. (The beans will contain a maximum of 0.01–0.03% caffeine.)

This the second Liquid Spirit De-Caff that I have tried. The first was Brazilian which is slightly more to my taste – rich and chocolatey. The Colombian De Cana has a brighter flavour profile with more acidity and fruitiness, and an undercurrent of biscuit flavour. An excellent Decaff from a coffee roaster who clearly works hard at getting the balance right.
