About Our Decaf Coffee

Sugar cane processed decaf from Colombia — for when you still want the coffee, just not the caffeine.

This is single origin Colombian decaf, processed using the sugar cane (EA) method which preserves flavour better than chemical decaffeination. Roasted weekly at our Hurstville roastery in Sydney. The decaf for people who don't actually want their coffee to taste like decaf.

Flavour notes

  • Cocoa depth — like a quality milk chocolate
  • Caramel sweetness through the body
  • Brown sugar finish, smooth and clean

Best for

After-dinner espressos, evening flat whites, late-night moments when you want the ritual without the buzz. Pregnant or caffeine-sensitive coffee lovers. Anyone who has been disappointed by hollow-tasting decaf in the past.
