The best decaf I have ever roasted. I had given up on decaf but I'm a fan of Guatemalan beans and thought I'd give it a try. This one can be roasted to city plus and give you most of the character of a caffeinated bean. Reordered five pounds.

Only need one word - Amazing! My customers love it. I stop the roast at the first signs of the 2C. Makes a nice rich, smooth and flavorful cup. Can not tell you are drinking a Decaf.

The best organic decaf I've tasted yet--and I'm new to home roasting, so the beans have to carry part of the load in producing flavors. :> I take it solidly into 2C after a quick ramp-up then extension of 1C (Behmor 1600+ AB). It's my Coffee Posse's favorite decaf. Impressions include Mozartkugeln (confection), Calimyrna fig syrup, spiced cocoa, and "that wood--what's it called, the dark blue-red one, the shavings come off crooked." Never figured out what that meant, but it should give a sense of how engaging/evocative this bean is, and not in a gimmicky way. Just nice and solid. It's also wonderful for half-caf. Right now I'm drinking it combined with the Brazil Daterra Sweet Blue RFA and it's a corker. The two together bring up the sweet-nut, spice, and cocoa notes of each...and in a slightly different way than separately. Thanks, CBC, for bringing such amazing quality to the reach of just regular people like us.

I probably have tried 30 different kinds of coffee and landed on this one. Very smooth with tons of flavors that are hard to describe! I started doing this (roasting) 3 years ago to find that perfect cup of coffee! This for me is it.

I can actually see me going decaf with this bean. Smooth cup every roast.

I've been looking for a decaf bean I can enjoy at medium to medium-dark roast. At last!! I struggled finding one that didn't need to be dark just to get that sour-milk taste out (if you know, you know). And now I have a couple of other suggestions I'll try next time thanks to your input.

This is so good. Best decaf coffee to me. I tried Bali and I more like this Guatemala. Nice aroma, nice favor. I roasted it to 1C + 3 mins, water loss 10%.

Best decaf coffee I've ever tasted! Taste better than some caffeinated varieties. I Great for pourover and makes a tasty cold brew. I typically roast beans between C+ & FC. These I roast just to the first few seconds of 2C to produce a rich creamy caramel flavor without the roast characteristics that I detest. Please keep this in stock!

I've tried so many different organic decaf beans over the years and these are the best I've ever had. Just ordered another 10#.

There is nothing wrong with their beans. I just cannot find a decaf coffee or tea that tastes good. I know this roasted quickly. It only took about 4 minutes. The coffee reminds me of taster's choice instant coffee. I don't know why decaf tastes so different than full caffeine? Anybody have suggestions?
