About
Tumbaga is named after an alloy of gold, copper and silver used across Colombia to make small, often religious objects. It is a decaf with high body, high sweetness and low acidity, a balanced, chocolatey and sweet cup. Sourced from sister company Sucafina Colombia. Sugarcane decaffeination uses ethyl acetate (EA), a compound derived from molasses: the beans are moistened with water, EA draws out the caffeine, and the remaining EA is removed by steaming.
