What impressed us with this coffee?

We chose this gem because it’s proof that decaf coffee can be just as exciting as its caffeinated cousins. With its vibrant notes of red fruits, subtle citrus and caramel-like sweetness, this coffee wowed us with its clean, complex profile and silky body.

The meticulous sugarcane decaffeination process, combined with Wilton’s innovative anaerobic fermentation techniques, ensures that none of the flavour is lost - only the caffeine. It’s the perfect addition to our Calm Collection, offering those looking to unwind a premium decaf experience that doesn’t compromise on taste. If decaf could ever steal the show, this is the one to do it.

ABOUT THE COFFEE

This exceptional coffee comes from Granja Paraíso 92, the innovative farm of Wilton Benitez in Piendamó, Cauca, Colombia, located at an elevation of 1900 MASL. Renowned for his groundbreaking processing methods, Wilton combines his background in chemical engineering with decades of coffee-growing expertise to create some of the most unique and memorable coffees in the world.

This lot, featuring the Red Bourbon variety, undergoes a meticulous sugarcane decaffeination process, which naturally removes caffeine while preserving the coffee’s vibrant flavors. The cherries are carefully fermented in an anaerobic environment for 48 hours, enhancing their fruity and citric notes. They are then dried for another 48 hours at 38°C, locking in their unique profile.

In the cup, expect a clean, silky body with rich, sugary sweetness and complex flavors, including notes of red fruits, gentle citrus, and caramel-like depth. This decaf coffee is a perfect example of how innovation and precision can transform the decaffeinated experience, delivering a cup that’s every bit as flavorful as its caffeinated counterparts.

Wilton’s Commitment to Innovation
From sterilizing cherries with ozone gas and UV light to fermenting with specific yeast strains, every step of Wilton’s process is about control and quality. His dedication to pushing the boundaries of specialty coffee makes this decaf a standout choice for those who crave exceptional flavor without the buzz.

Perfect for late-night brews or a calm afternoon indulgence, Granja Paraíso 92 - Red Bourbon Decaf redefines what decaf coffee can be.

SIP, FLAVOUR, REAPEAT!

Our coffee roasting adventure began in 2021 when we decided to “roast it ourselves” for the Bulgarian AeroPress Championship. What started with a ROEST sample roaster quickly turned into something much more serious (and much more delicious). By 2024, we leveled up to the Stronghold S7 Pro because if we’re going to do magic, we might as well have the best wand in the game.

Every coffee in our selection has to pass the ultimate “Wow!” test at the cupping table and win at least 2 out of 3 votes from our team. No vote? No chance. Our head roaster, Hristo, is the mastermind behind every batch - a perfectionist who won’t rest until the cup feels like pure magic. And since we believe every cup can be better, every customer becomes a tester whose feedback we’re eager to hear. It’s how we keep getting better, one roast at a time.
