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.

The matrix describes it perfectly.
By far my favorite.

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!

Took it about halfway into 2nd crack and have really enjoyed having this late day cup to enjoy. Good solid dark roast decaf choice.

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?
