Finally—a decaf espresso that doesn’t taste like an afterthought. ☕️✨

During the pandemic, we looked for new ways to innovate—and we set our sights on decaf.

Typically, lower-scoring, washed coffees are chosen for decaffeination (because, let’s be honest—why "waste" a great coffee on decaf, right?). But we thought: what if you didn’t have to compromise flavor just to skip the caffeine?

So, we profiled a high-quality honey process coffee from a collective of farmers in Marcala, Honduras—known for its sweetness and complexity—and sent it to Descamex in Veracruz, Mexico to be organically decaffeinated using pure spring water from Pico de Orizaba (no chemicals involved).

At first, even the folks at Descamex thought the result was a defect. They were used to working with lower quality coffees—but our owner, Nelson, flew down to Veracruz to taste it himself. And what he discovered? It was really good. Shockingly good. So good, it didn’t even taste like decaf.

We launched it in 2020—and it’s sold out every year since.

Now, we’ve dialed it in perfectly for espresso—bringing out that rich body, deep sweetness, and bold flavor you expect from a great shot. Whether you’re pulling a solo shot, crafting a decaf latte, or sipping it straight, this decaf espresso delivers full flavor, zero compromise.

And in case you're wondering—it didn’t just impress our customers. It's taken 1st Place in the Decaf Category at the Golden Bean North America Awards not once, but TWICE. 🔥 

Need a decaf that actually tastes like coffee? This one’s for you.
