Sugarcane EA Decaf
Colombia12.00€
Here is a bit on how Decaf Sugarcane EA is made. Green coffee is being steamed in a low-pressure environment. This process opens the pores of the coffee, allowing for easier caffeine extraction. Coffee is placedin a solution of water and Ethyl Acetate (E.A.), a naturally occuring compound and solvent derived through the fermentation of sugarcane. Beans are submerged in the solvent, which naturally bonds to the salts of chlorogenic acids within the coffee, allowing the extraction of caffeine. With time the beans get saturated and the solution hasto be changed. This manipulation is done several times. When the process is finished the beans are steammed again to remove all traces of EA, dried, get prepared for transportation and roasting.

Café Norte is a micro-mill dedicated to processing high-end specialty coffees in Northern El Salvador’s Alotepac-Metapan region. This lot is sourced from three farms: Machuca and La Hondurita (owned by the Díaz brothers) and San Andres (owned by Fredy Recinos). Coffee production in these mountains is relatively new, but the microclimate and challenging terrain are perfect for growing high-quality arabica. This honey-processed Pacas lot is slowly dried on raised beds for 30–38 days. -
This microlot comes from GMCG Member Farmers in the renowned regions of Matagalpa and Jinotega, Nicaragua, grown at elevations between 1,200 and 1,269 meters above sea level. Cultivated by dedicated producers working with varieties such as Caturra Estrella, Catuai and Pacas, this Elixir lot represents an expressive and experimental profile shaped by careful selection and innovative processing.
Processed using a Carbonic Maceration Natural method with a fermentation period ranging from 4 to 8 days, this coffee develops a silky texture and a complex aromatic structure. The controlled fermentation enhances its candy-like character while preserving clarity and balance, resulting in a vibrant and elegant cup.
In the cup, Nicaragua Elixir stands out for its floral aromatics and juicy fruit character. Notes of black cherry, candied apple and rose evolve into a smooth, wine-like finish with honeyed sweetness and a delicate silky body. A versatile coffee that performs beautifully both in filter brewing and espresso, ideal for those seeking refined, fruit-forward profiles with depth and personality.

Lorenzo Ramon’s parents tought him to work from a young age and never gave him the opportunity to study. But he is very entrepreneurial. Since coffee grows well in his region, Lorenzo decided it was a good bet to be able to earn a living. To ensure income, he runs a “bus” route through a difficult mountain range with a truck he bought. Lorenzo lives with his two adult children; Bielka Liseth (37) and Jose Angel (25). Another son, Lorenzo Antonio, and Lorenzo Antonio’s wife Maricela, together with Lorenzo Ramon, produce this lot called “Dos Lorenzos.”
