  • Thanks for the Girls who Grind recommendation. About to finish my first order and just placed my second order. All very tasty and all for a good cause.

  • Speaking of which, some people were talking about decaf and this sounds super interesting

    The Sugarcane process uses ethyl acetate that has been naturally
    derived from locally grown sugarcane, which grows in abundance in
    Colombia. Unlike most other processes, The Sugarcane method has the
    ability to retain the exceptional flavour of the coffee bean. First,
    the coffee is sorted and steamed for 30 minutes under low pressure in
    order to open the coffee seeds’ pores and prepare them for
    decaffeination. The coffee is placed in a solution of both water and
    ethyl acetate, where the E.A. will begin to bond with the salts of
    chlorogenic acids inside the seeds. The tank will be drained and
    re-filled over the course of eight hours until the caffeine is no
    longer detected. The seeds are steamed once more to remove the ethyl
    acetate traces. The coffee is then dried and polished for export.

    We love this method because it’s a lot more gentle to the beans than
    other methods, resulting in a smooth, sweet and delicious cup that
    works particularly well with milk
