Producer information:

After numerous tests aimed at improving both the cup profile and the appearance of the bean, the producers of Caldas developed an experimental batch specially designed for the decaffeination process, achieving a cleaner, more balanced and pleasant coffee.

The selection of high-altitude coffees —with higher natural acidity— has been fundamental to offsetting the characteristic sweetness of decaffeinated coffees and preserving their freshness in the cup.

Since 2024, a post-decaffeination mechanical silo drying stage has been incorporated, which stabilizes the bean, prolongs its shelf life and offers a more expressive and aromatic profile.

The Swiss Water process, using pure mountain water, removes caffeine naturally and gently, without the use of chemical solvents. This method guarantees the preservation of aromatic compounds and ensures over 97% caffeine removal, maintaining the essence of the coffee as it originated.
