Peru Decaf

Peru Decaf — Piura & Amazonas, Peru Medium Roast | 1,100–1,700 MASL | Fully Washed / Sun Dried / Swiss Water Process | Grade 1, SHG, EP

Decaf has a reputation problem it didn't earn. The assumption is that removing the caffeine removes the reason to care — that what's left is a compromise, a consolation, a cup for people who've given up on the real thing. The Swiss Water Process exists specifically to prove that assumption wrong, and this lot from Cooperativa Agricola de Servicios Norandino makes the case better than most.

Same cooperative. Same Piura and Amazonas highlands. Same 1,100 to 1,700 meters of elevation and clay mineral-rich mountain soil that produce the salted caramel warmth and citrus clarity this origin is known for. The Swiss Water Process removes the caffeine through pure water and osmosis — no solvents, no chemical shortcuts — preserving the flavor compounds that the terroir spent a full growing season building. The medium roast delivers what the process protected: caramel sweetness in the body, silky smooth texture through the mid-palate, and a subtle citrus brightness on the finish that closes clean.

Fully washed and sun-dried before decaffeination. Every order roasted in small batches after it is placed.

The craft doesn't stop at caffeine-free. This cup demands the same standard as every other single origin in this catalog — and it meets it.

Smooth, vibrant, and built without compromise — this is Blade & Bean's Peru Decaf
