{"product_id":"colombia-decaf-de-cana","title":"Colombia | Decaf de Caña","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis Colombian decaf from Quills Coffee proves that removing caffeine doesn't mean sacrificing flavor. Processed using the Sugarcane Method—where naturally derived ethyl acetate gently bonds with and extracts caffeine—this coffee retains the brightness and complexity of its fully caffeinated counterparts. Sourced from smallholder farmers in Colombia's high-altitude growing regions between 1,400 and 1,600 meters, it's a clean, washed-process coffee that tastes like red fruits, hazelnut, and chocolate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Sugarcane Process is one of the most flavor-preserving decaffeination methods available. Ethyl acetate, derived from fermented sugarcane, is a naturally occurring compound that selectively targets caffeine molecules while leaving the coffee's inherent flavors intact. The green beans are steamed to open their pores, then bathed in a water and EA solution over eight hours until caffeine is no longer detectable. The result is a decaf that drinks like the real thing—because it is.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eExpect bright notes of red fruit—think cherry and raspberry—balanced by the richness of roasted hazelnut and a smooth chocolate finish. The body is medium and approachable, with a gentle acidity that keeps each sip lively without being sharp. The finish is clean and slightly sweet, making this an easy coffee to return to throughout the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eBrew Methods\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis decaf shines across multiple brew methods. It pulls a balanced espresso with enough body to stand up to milk, making it ideal for cappuccinos and lattes. As a pour over, it highlights the red fruit and hazelnut notes beautifully—try a V60 or Kalita Wave with a medium-fine grind. It's equally at home in a French press, where the fuller immersion brings out the chocolate undertones and creates a silky mouthfeel. For cold brew, it offers a naturally sweet, low-acid concentrate perfect for iced drinks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eAbout the Roaster\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eQuills Coffee, based in Louisville, Kentucky, has built a reputation for meticulous sourcing and precise roasting.
