This is a naturally decaffeinated coffee. The C02 process removes 99% of the Caffeine but leaves the taste of the coffee. This dark roast coffee is a blend of 100% Colombian and other Central American Arabica beans. The roast produces a strong and bold taste, yet it keeps a very nice smooth finish without the burnt after taste. We recommend this to anyone who likes a stronger coffee without the burn and smokey taste of a very dark roast.
