BROWN SUGAR. ORANGE. MALTY.
Decaffeinated coffee does not get better than this. FACT. You’ll get a real orange juice sweetness of character and sensational few nutty notes. A bit like a lot of our baristas! We bring you a Colombian coffee without caffeine thanks to a process called the Sugarcane method. Our customers love it in a flat white and always remark ‘you would never know the difference’.

The Full Story
Decaf is done either at the farm or in a factory by steaming the raw green beans before adding a fluid derived from fermented sugarcane which extracts over 99% of the caffeine. Finally the beans are dried back to 10-12% moisture before being transported to Scotland.
Decaffeination is not an easy process but it’s improved so much over the last few years that finally we can be confident in drinking a super tasty cup of coffee without the jitters. For us at Unorthodox Roasters we are thirsty for coffees that actually deliver an exciting flavour profile. This one really does.
