Tasting Note:
Richer than many think, this Chambakú Decaffeinated presents very balanced and sweet notes of 80% chocolate and muscovado sugar. It is a coffee with a very mild acidity, a very round body, and very easy to drink with milk, in addition to having a slight aftertaste of golden apple that will also delight the most demanding coffee drinkers.
About:
Finca Chambakú is one of the farms NOMAD works with every year. And Felipe Restrepo brings us for this 2024 the new harvest of his delicious Chambakú Decaffeinated. He himself tells us that during the second semester of 2023 they have changed the entire process used for this coffee. They wanted to improve the humidity parameters, so they decided to dry the coffee in mechanical silos. And they have achieved greater stability of the coffee, lengthened its shelf life and created a more expressive cup.
Process: Washed
For the decaffeination process, high mountain spring water and ethyl acetate extracted from sugar cane molasses are used. It is a selective solvent for caffeine, which is present in nature (in yellow fruits such as bananas). It has two major drawbacks: it is highly flammable and has a characteristic odor at its base (sweetish). Its treatment is therefore quite delicate, which affects production costs and, normally, gives the coffee treated with this extractive mixture a different smell and slightly alters the flavor. This decaffeination process guarantees a minimum caffeine extraction of 97% and a solvent residual of maximum 20 PPM. The humidity is 11%.
