This decaffeinated coffee is sourced from smallholder farms in the Sierra Madre de Chiapas region of Mexico. It is processed using the Swiss Water Process, a 100% chemical-free decaffeination method that preserves sweetness, body, and origin character. The coffee reflects the region's volcanic soil and stable climate, with farms typically family-run using sustainable, small-scale practices. It offers a clean, medium-bodied cup with notes of milk chocolate, caramel, and toasted almond. The coffee has a medium roast level with balanced sweetness, smooth body, and gentle acidity, suitable for espresso, auto-drip, and French press.
Kafiex is a micro roastery based in Vancouver, Washington, roasting small batches of specialty coffee with a focus on microlots and competition grade lots. The company operates two downtown Vancouver locations: a Coffee Lab dedicated to roasting and tasting, and a Gastro Café serving food alongside coffee. In 2026, Roast Magazine named Kafiex its Micro Roaster of the Year, recognizing a journey that started at farmers markets and grew through international competitions. Sustainable sourcing is central to the operation, and a Coffee Club offers members curated selections, in store tastings, and exclusive sensory events.
