Description: This bean goes through a Swiss Water® Process which uses water from the pristine environment of the coast mountains of British Columbia, Canada to gently remove the caffeine until the coffee beans are 99.9% caffeine-free, while maintaining the bean’s distinctive origin and flavor characteristics. It’s decaffeinated coffee without compromise. Coffee decaffeinated using the environment-friendly Swiss Water® Process undergoes regular caffeine level audits to ensure compliance to 99.9% caffeine-free.

Kinda flavorless

I’ve had some amazing sidamo decafs. This isn’t one. Very little richness. Could be old beans, and could be poor water process. The price is unbeatable, but not what i was looking for.

Got exactly what I ordered and so quick.

Nice Decaf

I roasted this to the end of first crack. It is a nice decaf coffee and has the cupping notes as described. It is far from my first choice coffee to drink, but if I want decaf then this is a good option.

Surprisingly Tasty

In most cases I've considered any decaf coffee a necessary evil for those who must limit their caffeine intake. This batch of Decaf Ethiopia Sidamo was a big surprise. I tried a cup after a 24 hour resting period and found it to be unexpectedly tasty and full bodied. I actually found it hard to distinguish the flavor from the full caffeine lot. In the followiing weeks, the customer feedback I received showed that I was not alone. Good job guys, I will be ordering more while it's available.
