The Santos region of Brazil is known for its smooth, subtle, mellow beans. Known as a soft coffee because it¡Çs so delicate and mild, it offers just a hint of sweetness. This decaf is processed with a Swiss method, in which ionized water is used to extract the caffeine with very little degradation of the coffee flavor. To ensure full flavor, it¡Çs gently roasted a bit darker than our medium roasted coffee's, which introduces notes of rich chocolate.
