This coffee was decaffeinated through the ethyl acetate process. It uses fermented molasses from sugar cane as a solvent to release the caffeine from green coffee beans.
It is sourced from many smallholder farmers, with an average farm size of between 1 and 4,5 hectares at altitudes of 1400 to 2100 meters above sea level. Tumbaga is a high-quality regional coffee blend named after an alloy of gold, copper, and silver that was used throughout Colombia to make small, often religious objects. The blend changes with the season following harvest times but is generally sourced from Tolima or Cauca during the summer months and Antioquia or the regions in Eje Cafetero in the winter months.
The resulting cup reminds us of chocolate pudding, fruit salad, and roasted almond.
