Moonbow Decaf is a medium-dark roast coffee featuring 100% Arabica beans from select Latin American farms grown in fertile volcanic soils. The coffee is decaffeinated using the sugarcane ethyl acetate process, a natural method derived from fermented sugarcane that preserves the coffee's terroir and sweetness. Tasting notes include cocoa, golden caramel, toasted hazelnut, with a whisper of stone fruit adding subtle brightness. The coffee has a rounded body and gentle sweetness, making it versatile and approachable for any time of day.
