Mexico Sueño Decaf 250 g

All the magic happens after harvest. Sueño is decaffeinated with water by Descamex in Mexico, without the use of solvents. First, the green coffee is placed in a steam bath that opens up the structure of the beans and allows soluble compounds, including caffeine, to be released. The resulting water is not “empty”, though. Aromatic components remain, and this becomes the base for the rest of the process.

Subsequent batches of beans are immersed in this same aroma-saturated water. Because of the difference in concentration, caffeine gradually moves from the beans into the solution, while flavour compounds stay in place. The process is repeated until the caffeine content drops to trace levels. Finally, the coffee is gently dried to the desired moisture level and prepared for transport.

That’s why Sueño never feels “stripped back”. Instead, it remains sweet, elegant and complete, despite the absence of caffeine.
