This Decaf Tabi, displays origin and varietal characteristics you would expect of any high end specialty Tabi, so we wanted to showcase this not only as a great decaf option but as a great coffee. This coffee has been carefully grown before processing and then undergoing Ethyl acetate decaffeination.
What is EA?

Ethyl Acetate is an ester that is found naturally in fruits and vegetables such as bananas, apples and coffee. Green coffee is first soaked in water and then steamed in order to expand the cells of the bean, the liquid solvent is then circulated through a bed of the moist green coffee, removing most of the caffeine. The solvent is then recaptured in an evaporator, and the beans are washed with water.
This coffee was first carefully hand-picked in order to select only the ripest cherries. Later, the cherries were fermented for 40 hours in an anaerobic environment. Then the cherries were pulped, gently washed, and sun-dried until ideal moisture content was achieved.
From this the Tabi then underwent its decaffeination process.
