We believe decaf drinkers shouldn’t have to sacrifice quality and flavor. That’s why we source a high quality decaf and roast it with the same level of care and attention as the rest of our coffees. Creation Decaf is currently sourced from the Huila region of Colombia, and is decaffeinated using natural EA (sugarcane) decaffeination process.
The EA, or Sugarcane, natural decaffeination process combines high-mountain spring water and naturally occurring ethyl acetate (EA). The latter is present in all coffee beans in its natural state (as well as in many fruits and vegetables), so no synthetic chemicals of any kind are added.
Natural essential oil is obtained through a process based on sugarcane and, along with mountain spring water, are the only elements with which the coffee comes into contact. This water-essential oil process allows for a gentle extraction of caffeine from the bean, avoiding excessive heat and pressure, thus maintaining the natural structure and characteristics of the coffee bean.
