Sugarcane Decaf
Sugarcane decaffeination utilizes a naturally occurring compound, ethyl acetate (EA) to decaffeinate coffee. The EA process is relatively simple. The coffee beans are moistened with water and EA is circulated throughout. The EA binds with the caffeine in the bean and extracts the caffeine while leaving most of the other flavor compounds. After the desired caffeine level is reached, the EA residue on the beans is removed by steaming them.
Decaf, without compromise.
We believe Decaf shouldn't be a compromise, so we work hard to find high quality, special decaf's that stand out from traditional decaf coffees available.
Tumbaga is named for an alloy of gold, copper, and silver that was used throughout Colombia to make small, often religious, objects. This alloy symbolically married the contradictory energies of sun (gold) and moon (silver), producing a balance between opposites, much like our Tumbaga Sugarcane Decaf. An excellent cup without the caffeine, our Tumbaga will energize you without keeping you up at night.

The Producers
Tumbaga is named for an alloy of gold, copper, and silver that was used throughout Colombia to make small, often religious, objects. This alloy symbolically married the contradictory energies of sun (gold) and moon (silver), producing a balance between opposites, much like our Tumbaga Sugarcane Decaf. An excellent cup without the caffeine, our Tumbaga will energize you without keeping you up at night.
Sourced through Sucafina Colombia, our Tumbaga Sugarcane decaf takes decaf coffee to the next level. While most decafs out there use older coffees, they start with high quality coffee sourced from their integrated supply chain.
Knowing that the decaffeination process will magnify sweetness and acidity, their QC origin teams carefully source for high body, high sweetness and low acidity. With a strong foundation, we create a balanced, chocolatey and sweet cup that we’re confident is the best on the market.
Thanks to Colombia’s incredible climatic diversity we are able to offer a consistent Tumbaga profile all year round. Sourcing follows harvest times and will generally be sourced from Tolima or Cauca during the summer months and Antioquia or the regions in Eje Cafetero in the winter ones.
