Decaf Esmeralda

Decaf Esmeralda from Barefoot Coffee Roasters proves that giving up caffeine doesn't mean sacrificing flavor. This naturally processed Mexican coffee undergoes EA (ethyl acetate) decaffeination—a method using compounds found in fruits and vegetables to gently remove caffeine while preserving the bean's inherent sweetness and complexity. The result is a traceable, full-bodied decaf that performs beautifully as both drip coffee and espresso. Tasting Notes The cup opens with inviting nutty aromas that promise comfort in every sip. On the palate, you'll find notes of persimmon bringing a delicate fruit sweetness, roasted almond adding depth and texture, and milk chocolate rounding out the finish with creamy richness.
