Popayán Colombia

The so-called Meseta de Popayán is perfectly suited to growing coffee.. Situated at 1,700 MASL and sheltered by the Andes mountain range, it provides climatic consistency. Pair this with the region’s fertile volcanic soil and boom! We have high-end terroir prime for coffee cultivation. The coffees grown here are harvested, fully washed and then sent to a plant to go through the sugarcane decaffeination process - which is the only completely natural way to decaffeinate coffee.. We're absolutely buzzing to add this batch of Colombian decaf to our coffee collection. A beautiful balance of cinnamon sweetness and smooth dark chocolate, Popayán offers a floral rose finish and is a wonderful example of decaffeinated coffee that actually tastes like coffee!. Fully Washed Coffee Process:. The plant uses water from the volcanic slopes of the Meseta de Popayán, and natural ethyl acetate from fermented sugarcane - adding a raw sweetness to this washed coffee.. The beans are then submerged in the fermented sugarcane liquid until 97% of the caffeine is removed.. The end result is a beaut decaf coffee that tastes just as good as any of its caffeinated cousins!
