Tasting notes of cherry, chocolate and fudge.

Jairo Arcila Sugarcane Decaf, Colombia
This coffee is produced by Jairo Arcila, a third-generation coffee farmer from Quindio in Colombia
The sugarcane decaffeination process is a natural method that uses ethyl acetate - created from fermenting molasses derived from sugarcane - to gently extract caffeine from coffee beans, preserving their inherent flavor and aroma. It is widely recognized as a gentle and effective decaffeination technique.
In this process, green coffee beans are moistened and then exposed to ethyl acetate (E.A). The E.A. selectively binds to and removes caffeine molecules from the beans. After the caffeine extraction, the E.A. is removed, and the beans are processed as usual, dried and roasted. The sugarcane process is a natural method of decaffeination, and since sugarcane readily grows in abundance throughout Colombia, it is an environmentally conscious approach with minimal impact on the coffee's flavor and aroma. It presents an excellent option for consumers seeking a natural and flavorful decaffeinated coffee experience
Reviews
Cracked Coffee's website is really easy to use, offering a seamless experience. The delivery was impressively fast, and the coffee, is just delicious! I drink a lot of coffee and this is by far my favourite. I am looking to try some different flavours but can’t decide which one next as they all look fantastic! I highly recommend the company and the customer service is also fabulous, nothing is too much trouble. A must-try for coffee enthusiasts.
A fab decaf, full of flavour and not using spurious chemicals.
Delicious coffee and so good to know I can drink decaf without any nasty chemicals. Really enjoying this coffee, will be back for more
