Ligero Decaf the conviction that decaffeinated coffee makes no compromises in The taste and complexity must be addressed.
The cooperative Agroecológica de Servicios Múltiples Sanchirio Palomar cultivates four classic Peruvian varieties – Bourbon, Typica, Caturra and Catimor – whose cherries retain their aromatic clarity through careful washed processing.
The altitude is between 1,400 and 1,900 meters. It brings moderate temperatures that allow the cherries to ripen slowly. Cool nights and warm days promote the accumulation of sugars and complex aromas, while the mineral-rich soils of the Andean foothills give the coffee structure and a delicate base note.
Coffee Architects refines this raw coffee with a medium espresso roast, which emphasizes the natural chocolate flavor while preserving the subtle fruity notes.

Fabio's recommendations
This decaffeinated coffee is specially designed for espresso extraction and unfolds its full potential when used in:
- portafilter: Emphasizes the chocolatey richness and creamy texture
- Fully automatic: Highlights the balance between sweetness and texture
- Milk drinks (Cappuccino, Flat White): Enhances the malt note and harmonizes perfectly with the natural sweetness of the milk.
For portafilters

- dose18–20g for a double shot
- Extraction time: 28–32 seconds (decaffeinated beans extract slightly faster)
- Brewing temperature: 90–92°C (2°C lower than normal)
- Output quantity36–40 ml
For fully automatic machines

-
TipDecaffeinated coffees harmonize particularly well with oat barista milk, which accentuates their malty sweetness.
