Espresso Décaf Sugar Cane is a rich, full-bodied decaffeinated espresso blend created for true coffee lovers who want all the flavour without the caffeine. Woodsy and smoky, with d ark chocolate notes, it delivers the depth and body of a full espresso – a satisfying cup for any time of day or evening. It is naturally decaffeinated using an ethyl acetate process derived from sugar cane, a gentle method that keeps the coffee's character intact. Tasting Notes This is a full-bodied, low-acidity cup with a rich, woodsy character and a gentle smokiness. Dark chocolate notes carry through a smooth, lingering finish. It holds up whether pulled as espresso or brewed as filter, making it a versatile decaf for any moment. Roast This blend is roasted to a medium-dark colour for full body and a smooth, low-acidity character. Because decaffeination increases the beans' porosity, the exterior darkens faster than the interior during roasting – so the beans can look like a dark roast on the surface while staying lighter inside. This is a natural characteristic of decaffeinated coffee, not a sign of a heavier roast. The Sugar Cane Decaf Process This coffee is decaffeinated using natural ethyl acetate (E.A.), a compound derived from the fermentation of sugar cane. The green beans are gently steamed and rinsed to draw out the caffeine, then dried and cooled – a careful process that removes at least 97% of the caffeine while preserving the flavour compounds that give the cup its richness. Because the solvent comes from sugar cane rather than synthetic sources, this method is often called sugar-cane or natural decaffeination. Brewing Balanced enough for both espresso and filter. For espresso, use about 1 tbsp (8 g) of coffee per 1 oz (30 ml) of fresh water. For filter or drip coffee, use 1 tbsp (8 g) per 8.5 oz (250 ml) of fresh water.
