We care about our decaf!
This is not a sales pitch rather, it’s the truth! We often choose to drink our decaf over other coffees because it just tastes great! You will enjoy some spice notes, hint of citrus and lots of chocolate!
What is Mountain Water Process (similar to the Swiss Water process)? Honestly, we haven’t found, or understood, the differences between the two methods yet - but we have noticed it keeps intact most of the flavours. In addition to being an amazing way to take the caffeine out of the raw product, Osito sourced a high quality lot before decaffeination, meaning more flavours for you in the cup.
We also use our decaf for our Mindful Blend, and we pair it with our other Mexican coffee.
