Citrus, brown sugar, chocolate. A decaf that is bright and fruity rather than flat.

From smallholder farms around La Unión, Nariño, in southwestern Colombia. Fully washed, picked during the day and pulped the same afternoon on each farm. Then it goes to Descafecol in Manizales for decaffeination. Previously sold as Colombia EA Decaf.

The ethyl acetate process starts with sugarcane. Molasses is fermented to ethanol and combined with acetic acid to make EA. The green coffee soaks in it, the EA bonds to the caffeine, and steam removes the rest. Nariño's high elevations give this decaf more acidity than most.
