Abdo Aba Mecha EA Decaf

This exceptional lot comes from Abdo Aba Mecha, a producer based in the Limu region of Jimma, Ethiopia. On his 30-hectare farm—situated between 1,900 and 2,200 masl—Abdo cultivates local heirloom varieties under a dense forest canopy. His approach combines traditional farming practices with careful hand-harvesting and detailed drying, ensuring only the highest quality cherries are selected.

ABOUT SUAGAR CANE (E.A.) PROCESS:
The Sugar Cane Process originates in Colombia where sugar cane grows in abundance. As molasses is a key byproduct in sugar production it is ideal to be fermented to make ethanol alcohol due to its abundance. The ethanol is combined with acetic acid (vinegar), to create the solvent ethyl acetate (E.A.) which is a compound that naturally occurs in wine, beer, fruit, and vegetables. The coffee beans are steamed or soaked in water to help release caffeine from the seed structure. Afterwards the coffee undergoes an E.A. wash, which dissolves the caffeine. Finally, the seeds are cleaned with water again and then dried to a stable moisture level. We find this process results in a decaf coffee with a lovely, clean, and sweet flavour!
