$17.00

Experience all the right flavors with no jitters! Our decaf coffees are single origin, perfectly roasted, and just what you are looking for.

Ethiopia’s Guji zone is a distant and heavily forested swath of land stretching southeast through the lower corner of the massive Oromia region.  Guji is heavy with primary forest thanks to the Guji tribe, a part of Ethiopia’s vast and diverse Oromo nation, who have for generations organized and legislated to reduce mining and logging outfits in their area, in a struggle to conserve the land’s sacred canopy.  

Compared to other coffee-heavy regions, large parts of Guji feel like prehistoric backwoods.  Coffee farms in many parts of Guji begin at 2000 meters in elevation and tend to climb from there.  The highland farming communities in this part of the country can be at turns Edenic in their natural purity, and startlingly remote. 

During the Swiss Water process, the green coffee is hydrated to expand the beans for caffeine extraction. The hydrated green coffee is then introduced to Green Coffee Extract (GCE), a unique solution of concentrated coffee solubles that allows the caffeine to leave the green coffee via osmosis while minimizing the loss of flavor compounds. Once the caffeine has been removed the green coffee is re-dried and re-bagged for transport, and the GCE is filtered of its caffeine through proprietary carbon filters and recycled to be used again
