Could there possibly be such a thing as a coffee that is too perfect? This decaffeinated Costa Rica cup evokes comments such as 'classic cup', 'perfectly balanced', and 'exceptionally clean'. Professional tasters call it Perfect, not boring or bland. You'll find this to be a bright coffee, high in acidity, medium in body, wonderfully aromatic. There is something to be said for bringing it full circle and celebrating a cup rich in its own flavor. Being decaffeinated just adds to the amazement of just how perfect this cup is. Costa Rica Reserve beans are strictly hard bean, SHB, meaning that they are grown at altitudes over 3900 feet. The high altitude slows the maturity of the bean, keeping it denser and locking the rich flavor inside. SHB beans are the finest that Cost Rica has to offer. This coffee was decaffeinated in its green state so that the precious oils remained tucked safe inside the bean during the decaf process. The oils are then able to develop during roasting as expected. Since caffeine has no taste or color, the decaffeinating process done properly and expertly will reveal nothing short of a perfect cup. There is a revolution happening in the Costa Rica coffee region and it has encouraged more and more farmers to work small coffee mills, called micro-mills, as opposed to the larger plantations. Given the opportunity to mill it them selves and to have absolute authority of the process has also given these coffee artisans the freedom to produce some of the best-flavored beans yet. The Neidhammer Select Decaf Costa Rica Gourmet Coffee is available in whole beans and 3 different grinds: Drip-Grind, French-Press or Espresso-Grind. Each coffee is freshly roasted just for your order and packed in a 1-pound heat-sealed valve bag that will ensure the freshest coffee.
