NO FUN JO DECAF: 12 oz, Organic Decaf Coffee, Medium-Dark Roast, Ground

bueno

Absolutely love this decaf! In an effort to only drink organic coffee AND to cut caffeine, I’ve now ordered this coffee twice. No regrets, and I will be ordering it again. (I’ve actually added it to my Subscribe and Save.). Smooth, no bitter aftertaste, love the medium roast (not too strong), and as already mentioned, I love the organic aspect. Healthier while still getting my Joe! Win!

Muy buena opción descafeinado

This is a great tasting coffee. I wish I didn't have to pay so much for it.

Decaf coffee isn’t my favorite thing in the world. However, it has its place, and I can appreciate its existence for such times. ' That being said, this is a good cup of decaf. I knew I wanted an organic, fair trade, non-GMO coffee. Prior to buying this coffee I had never heard of the “Swiss Water Method”. I also never knew how caffeine is traditionally removed from coffee beans. The typical method uses chemicals (dichloromethane or ethyl acetate). The beans are steamed and then repeatedly rinsed in chemicals for 10 hours to remove the caffeine. The left over solvent is drained from the beans which are then rinsed, and steamed again to remove the rest of the caffeine and chemicals. Yikes! The Swiss Water Method does not use or add any chemicals to the beans to remove caffeine. Rather, the process involves submerging the unroasted beans in very hot water releasing the caffeine into one tank and coffee solids into another tank. The flavorful water is passed through an activated charcoal filter. The flavorless beans are discarded. Then the flavorful water is used to start the process all over again with NEW coffee beans .Since the flavor-charged water cannot remove any of the coffee solids from the new beans, only the caffeine is released. The process repeats, filtering out all the caffeine until the beans are 99.9% caffeine free. These beans are removed and dried, and thus retain most if not all of their flavor and smell. Confusing? Kind of. But you can watch a video of the process on YouTube if it strikes your fancy. Basically What I now know, is that I want my decaf. to come from the Swiss Water Method. As far as taste goes, this coffee is really quite nice. It is a smooth, flavorful, medium roast. It is the best organic decaf I have yet to taste. I personally do not pick up on the notes of sweet blueberry & chocolate. But I am OK with that. Would definitely recommend No Fun Jo for anyone who is looking for a premium organic cup of decaf. '
