About This Coffee

This decaffeinated coffee originates from Huila, Colombia, grown at 1700-2200 meters above sea level. It is a field blend of three varieties: Colombia, Caturra, and Castillo. The coffee is washed and then decaffeinated using the Ethyl Acetate (EA) sugarcane process at Descafecol in Manizales, removing a minimum of 97% of caffeine. The coffee is fermented for 12-18 hours in concrete tanks and dried for 2-3 weeks on raised beds or cement patios. Tasting notes include caramel, raisin, dark cherry, and milk chocolate with a light to medium roast level.

Color Coffee Roasters

Color Coffee Roasters is the brainchild of Charlie Gundlach, who turned his backyard roasting obsession into a legit operation in Eagle, Colorado, back in 2016. They’re pretty geeky about the science, hence the name Color, which links specific tasting notes to actual colors in a spectrum. Yet, they keep the vibe super chill and approachable for everyone while hunting for that perfect sweet spot on their energy-efficient Loring roaster to let the natural terroir really pop. Plus, they’re big on sustainability and transparency, so you can feel good about drinking a cup that’s as kind to the planet as it is tasty.
