Brazil Fazenda Primavera Decaf

Brazil Fazenda Primavera Decaf

The kind of decaf that made us double-check what we had brewed. This naturally processed Yellow Catuai from Brazil Fazenda Primavera was full of sweetness, with pops of strawberry and apricot rounded out by chocolate mousse and butterscotch. Complex, well-rounded, and sweet, it was decaffeinated using the Swiss Water Process.
