FROM THE ROASTER

RETURNING FOR ITS THIRD RUN, SCENERY'S ORIGINAL DECAF AND A TEAM FAVOURITE: A FRESH MITACA DROP FROM THE VILLAMARÍA SMALLHOLDERS, BIG COLOMBIAN NATURAL CHARACTER ENHANCED BY THE TROPICAL SWEETNESS OF EA DECAF. RAW MATERIAL RETURNS 100% OF PROFITS TO PRODUCERS.

WE'RE TASTING

RICH CHOCOLATEY AROMATICS LIKE FRESH BROWNIES. IN THE CUP IT'S SYRUPY AND CHOCOLATE FORWARD WITH A SLIGHTLY BOOZY, MALTY NOTE THAT RECALLS GUINNESS CAKE, AND DRIED PAPAYA, PINEAPPLE AND GLACÉ CHERRY IN THE FINISH. IN MILK: BAKEWELL TART.

PROCESS

TRADITIONAL NATURAL / EA DECAF: CHERRIES FLOATED ON ARRIVAL AT JAMAICA STATION, DRIED ON RAISED BEDS IN MARQUESINAS FOR 15 DAYS AND FINISHED IN A MECHANICAL DRIER, THEN DECAFFEINATED BY DESCAFECOL IN MANIZALES USING SUGARCANE-DERIVED ETHYL ACETATE.

PLEASE NOTE: DUE TO THE PHYSIOCHEMICAL CHANGES UNDERGONE DURING DECAFFEINATION, THIS COFFEE WILL VISUALLY APPEAR TO BE A DARKER ROAST THAN ITS ACTUAL PERCEIVED ROAST DEGREE.
