This Mexican decaf coffee comes from the Chiapas and Oaxaca regions, grown at elevations between 900-1500 meters. The coffee features various varieties and is decaffeinated using ethyl acetate, a naturally-occurring fruit element. The flavor profile leads with deep molasses notes, balanced by subtle stone fruit acidity. This creates a reliable daily drinker that maintains its character when paired with milk, avoiding heaviness or one-dimensional qualities.
