About El Paraiso Washed Decaf | Colombia
This is an incredible coffee is back for 2024! Produced using a complex and very unique post harvest technique and then decaffeinated in Colombia using the Sugarcane method:
1. Coffee was carefully hand harvested to select only very ripe cherry
2. The coffee was fermented for 48 hours
3. Coffee was pulped to remove the fruit
4. The coffee with mucilage was fermented for an additional 48 hours
5. Coffee was washed to remove mucilage
6. Controlled drying using a mechanical de-humidifier
7. Decaffeination by Sugarcane method
This two stage fermentation process creates some incredible tasting notes that include cherry, raspberry, and rhubarb. -

Colombia 🇨🇴
Colombia has been blessed with a perfect climate for coffee growing as it has a dozen micro-climates across thousands of miles, volcanic soil, and just a perfect amount of rain. Discover more about Colombian coffee.
Finding an experimental decaf is not an easy feat There is only a handful of options on the market and I often have to buy them from international roasters... Delighted to see Horsham offering this one. Delicious as a filter. Very fruity! A great choice if you're after more funky coffees.
Please keep roasting experimental decafs. Happy to pay extra for higher quality options.
This was my first ever fermented coffee as I only drink decaf and they are really rare. i'm so grateful to HCR for making this coffee. So interesting and delicious! I've never thought of the flavour of a coffee as juicy before, but this one really is!
delicious - best decaf I have had
I loved the caffeinated version of this coffee, and I was elated to see a decaf version of it on the website. It is just as delicious and I have bought a second bag from a local shop. I will be sad when it eventually disappears again.
