Jairo Arcila Natural Decaf - Colombia

Carefully hand-picked in order to select only the ripest cherries and then hand sorted to remove any defects. It was then sun-dried on raised beds in temperature-controlled conditions until the ideal moisture content was achieved, producing a unique decaffeination process. The caffeine is extracted from the bean using sugar cane (ethyl acetate) and water which enhances sweetness while maintaining coffee attributes.

This microlot is 100% Castillo. This variety was developed by Federación Nacional de Cafeteros. It is more productive than Caturra and resistant to coffee leaf rust.
