Wholesale Decaf Colombia Huila - 12 oz. Bag

The Decaf Huila coffee comes from the Huila region located in the south-west part of Colombia. Huila is decaffeinated using a solvent that is derived from sugarcane: caña de azúcar descafeinada. The coffee is placed in vats to ferment and at the peak of fermentation, alcohol is added to make ethyl acetate. The unique thing about ethyl acetate is that it avoids high heat and pressure, which tends to degrade coffee rapidly. It allows for the coffee to maintain its flavor even after it’s been decaffeinated. You can expect a very sweet and balanced cup with flavor notes of cinnamon, dates and caramel. We use it as an espresso and as a drip, though it would also make a tasty pour over.
