Behind the brew Plus

This decaf comes from award-winning Finca Las Flores in Pitalito, where Pink Bourbon thrives under the shade of native and fruit trees. After careful harvesting, the cherries undergo a multi-stage anaerobic fermentation, followed by thermal shock and precision drying to preserve complexity and clarity in the cup. The coffee is decaffeinated using the sugar cane process at Descafecol in Colombia.

It’s part of their Identity Preserved Decaf series, which guarantees full traceability and safeguards the coffee’s unique characteristics from farm to final cup.

It surprises with a spicy kick and soft floral accents. Delicate orange tones wrapped in soft chocolate sweetness. Yummy!

Producer: Finca Las Flores, Jhoan Vergara
Origin: Huila, Colombia
Variety: Pink Bourbon

By purchasing Spice Cake, you're supporting sustainable, transparent, and innovative farming practices that benefit the farm and its community.

 About Las Flores Plus

The farm Las Flores, founded over 30 years ago by Edilberto Vergara and Nubia Ayure, is now a pioneer in Colombian specialty coffee. Located in Huila, a region known for its ideal climate and fertile soil, the farm started with 16 hectares of coffee.

After Nubia’s passing in 2012, their sons Johan and Diego took over, combining tradition with innovation to raise the farm’s reputation to one of the benchmarks in Colombian specialty coffee.

Today, Las Flores produces exceptional varieties such as Tabi, Red Bourbon, Java, Maracaturra, Pink Bourbon, Gesha, and Caturra Chiroso. 

Pink Bourbon which originates in Huila is a result of a natural hybridization of red and yellow bourbon varieties, others believe that it is closer to an Ethiopian Landrace. Harvesting conditions and processing methods are very important to enhance its full potential.

While Johan manages farm operations, Diego focuses on fermentation and processing, experimenting with innovative techniques that highlight the full potential of their coffees.

Their shared goal is to maintain high-quality, replicatable profiles that truly showcase the potential of their coffees to the world .

 About the process Plus

Fermentation & Thermal Shock

The coffee cherries are carefully selected and undergo a 24-hour anaerobic fermentation. This is followed by a 12-hour oxidation before the cherries are pulped. The beans then undergo another 36-hour anaerobic fermentation. From the start, Mosto prepared from cherries of the same variety is added.

The fermentation process is abruptly stopped with a thermal shock by treating the coffee beans with 50°C hot water followed by 20°C cold water. This is a critical step to fixate the compounds released during fermentation. The combination of hot and cold water first opens the pores of the bean and then locks in the volatile compounds. This process takes 30 minutes.

Precision Drying

The coffee is dried in a hermetically sealed stainless steel dehumidifier until it reaches 11% moisture. This Pristine Precision Drying takes approximately 36 to 40 hours, followed by a one-week stabilization period.

Sugar Cane Process

The Sugar Cane process uses ethyl acetate (EA), a natural solvent obtained from sugar cane through fermentation - hence the name. EA is naturally present in many fruits and other foods.

  1. First, the green coffee beans are steamed to open their pores.
  2. They are then placed in a solution of water and ethyl acetate, which binds and removes the caffeine without affecting the flavors. This process is repeated several times until 99.9% of the caffeine is removed.
  3. Finally, the beans are steamed again to remove any remaining traces of ethyl acetate and then dried. The amount remaining in the beans is several times less than in a banana.

The Sugar Cane process preserves the original aromas and flavor of the coffee, often gains sweetness, and has no off-flavors from the decaffeination process.

This coffee was decaffeinated in the country of origin, meaning a larger part of the value chain remains in the country. The short transport routes reduce the carbon footprint and guarantee the freshness of the beans.

 How to brew Plus
Filter

Ratio: 1:15 (e.g. 15g coffee to 225ml water)

Temperature: lower, approx. 88-89°C

Grinding level: slightly coarser than usual

Simple Recipe:
Bloom: 45g - 45sec
2 pours on 120g and 225g
Too much agitation leads to stalling and increased astringency.

Espresso

Temperature: Lower, about 91°C

Ratio: 1:2 as a base or shorter – I wouldn’t recommend longer.

Grinding level: Slightly finer than usual.

Aeropress

Here I can recommend Lance Hendricks’ recipe:

👉 Watch the video


  • 30g coffee with 120g water (80-85°C)

  • Grinding level: Coarser than usual (French Press)

Preparation:


  1. Pour all the water in at once.

  2. Stir for 10 seconds.

  3. After 1 minute, put the lid on and press for 1 minute.

  4. Dilute with 80-120g water.

A true highlight for anyone ready to rethink decaf! 🩷☕️

Sweet Momelo is a stunning fruity decaf!

Absolutely stunned with the curation of specialty decafs! The Sweet Momelo is the single decaf I'm feeling like having since I tried it. Lovely roasting, more on the medium than super light roast but it's still such a vibrant coffee. I'm sure if someone is not told they wouldn't be able to tell if it's decaf.

Best decaf I‘ve tried so far

Best decaf I‘ve tried so far with a really amazing taste that can absolutely compete with normal coffee. For me, I must admit that the filter roasts did the best. The espresso roasts were too dark for my taste. But I anyway prefer light roasts for espresso, so that’s no surprise.

The ritual you love - without caffeine.

Any questions? We can help!

We have already compiled and answered the most frequently asked questions for you. If you have any further questions, please send us a WhatsApp or email .
Should I order ground or whole beans? Plus

We recommend ordering whole beans and grinding them fresh before each preparation. This guarantees the best results, especially with decaf, as this loses its flavor more quickly than regular coffee due to the decaffeination process. A hand or automatic grinder is a worthwhile addition to any coffee-loving household. However, we are happy to grind the coffee for you if you wish.
Do you also have capsules or pads? Plus

Not yet, but we're working on it. Sign up for the waitlist to be notified when they're available.
How fresh is the coffee? Plus

Our decaf is freshly roasted every week and shipped directly after roasting, the coffee should rest for 5-7 days to develop its full aroma.
How much caffeine does decaf have? Plus

Although many people say “caffeine-free coffee,” that is not entirely accurate. Decaffeinated green coffee and roasted coffee has a caffeine content of less than 1 gram per kilogram – or 0.1%.

For comparison:

  • Decaffeinated beans: 0.1% caffeine
  • Arabica: approx. 1-1.4% caffeine
  • Robusta or Canephoras: 1.8-3.5% caffeine
  • Aramosa, Laurina (Low Caf beans): 0.4-0.8% caffeine
Is the coffee organic? Plus

We place more value on transparency and the closest and most long-term relationships possible with our partners. Certificates are always good when you have little information and can therefore be sure that certain minimum standards are met.

We pay premium prices to ensure fairness throughout the supply chain – so you get the best coffee.

On the product pages you will find detailed information about the farms and their practices.
How is your coffee decaffeinated? Plus

We use 100% natural decaffeination processes, such as the water and sugar cane process. These methods preserve the full aroma and flavor of our high-quality Arabica beans. You can find more information about the decaffeination processes here.
Do you also deliver abroad? Plus

Yes, we ship throughout Europe. If your country is not listed or for deliveries outside Europe, please contact us by email .
