About this Coffee: A coffee dedicated to those who drink this beloved and mystical beverage for the simplest reason of all: the love of its taste. "El Viejo" is a decaf coffee that honors and admires the wisdom of age, crafted to satisfy even the most discerning decaf purists, including The Hermit’s founder dad, who he affectionately calls "Viejo" and drinks only decaf.
Carefully selected, meticulously processed and roasted, this coffee ensures that even the most skeptical decaf drinkers won’t be disappointed. It’s so good that even those with a trained palate might not realize they’re drinking decaf.
Decaffeinated through a natural method known as the "Sugar Cane" process, this coffee uses the ethyl acetate naturally found in sugar cane to gently remove caffeine from the beans. This process reduces the caffeine content to approximately 0.3% while preserving the original characteristics of the coffee, resulting in an exceptional cup.
