Sweet coffee with a creamy body. In aroma, we can find notes of cocoa powder, honey and caramel. It has soft acidity and a long and pleasant aftertaste that reminds us of maple syrup.
Finca Chambakú is one of the farms that NOMAD works with every year. Juan Felipe Restrepo (Pipe to his friends) brings us a new batch, this time a decaffeinated coffee with the “sugar cane process” method.
Pipe decided to go a step further and decaffeinate one of his natural processes, its pronounced acidity, with fruitier notes, compensates for the characteristic sweetness that the decaffeination process generates, thus creating a much more complex cup.
Process
The process is carried out through ethyl acetate from sugar cane. It is a selective solvent for caffeine that is present in nature. It is obtained through the fermentation of sugar cane. The coffee is then submerged four times in a mixture of water with this acetate, which absorbs almost completely the caffeine from the coffee. Once this process has been completed, the coffee is dried until reaching 12.5% moisture and covered with a layer of organic wax to protect it so that it will stay at its best for longer.
There are many ways to enjoy your soluble specialty coffee.
The most basic we propose is to add 200ml of water (max 75ºC) in your favourite cup, let it sit for a couple of minutes and enjoy!
*Each packet contains 2.5g of instant coffee.
