Decaf Colombia Huila Rainbow shows the quality that can be achieved in a decaf coffee when care and consideration are poured into it.
This starts on the farms of small holders around Huila. Growing conditions of one of Colombia's famous coffee growing regions pour sweetness and balanced acidity into the lots that make up Huila Rainbow. The cherry is then selectively picked for maximum ripeness, ensuring only the highest quality coffee is sent on to be decaffeinated.
The microlots are then carefully processed using the sugar cane process ensuring as much of the original characteristics of terroir and varietal are retained while the caffeine is removed.
The resulting coffee has a bright candy like lemon curd acidity, clean expressive flavors of honey crisp apple, balanced with the warm sweetness of demerara sugar.
