About the Decaf Project
This tasting set is part of the Decaf Project, a global event led by James Hoffman to learn about and experience 3 different decaffeination methods (alongside the original coffee).
What’s in
This set includes 4 x 250g bags of Colombia La Virgen in different formats (whole beans—grind at home), allowing for taste and comparison:
- Unprocessed (as is after fermentation and drying)
- EA Natural (a.k.a. sugar cane) decaf process
- Swiss Water® decaf Process
- Natural Carbonic™ (previously referred to as CO2 Subcritical) decaf process
You can learn more about the producers, the coffee lot and each decaffeination method on Colombia La Virgen‘s coffee page.
Timeline
One-off retail orders: We’re roasting these tasting sets on Tuesday, 3rd of December! You can order tasting sets as long as this product is available, but we can’t guarantee it’ll get to you before the live tasting if you order after Monday, 2nd of December.
Online subscribers: Please add your Decaf Project tasting set to your next delivery before the end of Tuesday, 3rd of December (or before it sells out). Don’t forget to set the date of your next delivery to Wednesday, 4th of December.
Live tasting and knowledge library
James Hoffmann will run a live tasting session on the 15th December at 3 PM GMT (16th December at 2 AM AEDT). This session will be recorded and uploaded for those who can’t make it—which is probably most of us down under!
In the lead-up to it, he’ll share a few videos expanding on the project and each decaffeination method. Follow his channel to stay up to date.
