We taste lots of decaf to find the best one for you. We are pretty strict on what decaf we bring in for our cafe, our wholesale partners and for you! ON that note, our decaf rotates and may change every quarter but we can promise you that it will be just as good as the last one we offered. More about the coffee and Swiss Water Process Below!

Coffee produced by the Cooperativa Cafetalera Capucas Limitada (COCAFCAL), also known as Las Capucas, has been a year-round Swiss Water green offering since 2011. Las Capucas is popular with our roasting partners not only for its vibrant flavor profile (cocoa, stonefruit) but for its many sustainable certifications, including Fairtrade, Organic, Rainforest Alliance and Smithsonian Bird Friendly®.

Located in the west of Honduras, near Celaque National Park, Las Capucas was founded in 1999 by Jose Omar Rodriguez and takes its name from the local town of Las Capucas. Coffee has been farmed in this region since the late 19th century, and in the 1960s, the primary crop (tobacco) was replaced with more coffee. This coffee is primarily Caturra, grown at 1400–1600 meters above sea level in lush soil.

And working as a cooperative, COCAFCAL has been able to leverage the power of its dozen or so associated coffee farming communities to advance the prosperity and social wellness of these (and neighboring) communities. Cooperative members and their families are eligible for programs that provide financial, technical, and marketing services. The co-op has also invested in community infrastructure improvements like garbage cleanup, and educates local children on environmental stewardship.
