The Beans
Mountain Water Decaf is currently sourced from the San Vicente farm in Honduras — a producer that has been exporting since 2001 and works with over 1,500 growers in the Lake Yojoa region. The volcanic soil and microclimate there produce beans with a naturally smooth, full body and low acidity. Varietals include Bourbon, Catimor, Catuai, and Pacas, grown at 800 meters elevation and harvested in February.
The tasting notes — graham cracker warmth, dark chocolate, and a smooth creamy finish — are natural characteristics of this bean at medium roast, not added flavoring. The Mountain Water Process removes caffeine using water, not chemical solvents like methylene chloride or ethyl acetate, which means the flavor compounds stay intact rather than being stripped out alongside the caffeine. Air-roasted to order with 100% solar power.
Note: Specific origin may vary by harvest availability. Current lot is Honduran. Tasting notes will be updated when the origin changes.

How to Brew
Auto Drip: 1 to 2 tablespoons per 6 oz of water. Medium grind. The graham cracker and chocolate notes come through clearly at standard brew strength.
Pour Over: Same ratio as drip. Steady, even pour. Clean extraction suits this bean well — the creamy finish comes through without muddying the chocolate.
French Press: 1 tablespoon per 4 oz of water, coarse grind. Steep 4 minutes, press slow. Full immersion brings the dark chocolate depth forward and the body — which is naturally high on this bean — comes through clearly.
Cold Brew: 1 cup coarsely ground coffee to 4 cups cold water. Steep 12–24 hours in the fridge, then strain. The graham cracker and chocolate notes cold brew well — smooth and full-bodied without any bitterness.
Single-Serve Pods: Compatible with Keurig® 1.0 and 2.0 machines. 12-count box. Same coffee, no measuring required.
Storage: Resealable bag — keep it sealed, store in a cool dry place away from direct light. Airtight container after opening. Best within 4 weeks of opening.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions about Mountain Water Decaf Coffee
Does decaf coffee actually taste as good as regular?
This one does. The Mountain Water Process removes caffeine using water rather than chemical solvents, which means the flavor compounds stay intact. The result is a cup with graham cracker warmth, dark chocolate depth, and a smooth finish — not a watered-down version of coffee. If you've been disappointed by decaf before, this is a reasonable place to try again.
What is the Mountain Water Process?
It's a chemical-free decaffeination method that uses water to remove caffeine from green coffee beans. Most decaf processes use chemical solvents — methylene chloride or ethyl acetate — to strip caffeine molecules. The Mountain Water Process skips the solvents entirely, which preserves more of the bean's natural flavor compounds and produces a cleaner-tasting cup.
Is this coffee easy on the stomach?
Yes — and there are a few things working in its favor. The bean is naturally low in acidity, the medium roast reduces acidity further, and air roasting keeps the cup smooth rather than harsh. It's one of the gentler cups in the lineup for sensitive stomachs. No guarantees, because everyone's different, but it's a reasonable place to start.
Does Mountain Water Decaf have any added flavoring?
No — it's completely unflavored. The graham cracker, dark chocolate, and creamy notes are natural characteristics of the bean and the roast. What's in the bag is coffee, nothing else.
Why does the origin sometimes change?
We source our decaf based on the best available lot from our supplier each harvest season. The Mountain Water Process and the quality standard stay consistent — the specific origin may shift depending on what's available. We update the tasting notes when the origin changes.
What bag sizes are available?
Mountain Water Decaf is available in 1/2 lb and 1 lb bags in whole bean, French press grind, and auto drip grind. Single-serve pods come in 12-count boxes, compatible with Keurig® 1.0 and 2.0.
What's the difference between the bag and the single-serve pods?
Same coffee, different format. The bag gives you flexibility on grind and brew method. The single-serve pods are 12-count boxes compatible with Keurig® 1.0 and 2.0 machines — grab-and-go with no measuring required.
Is Mountain Water Decaf keto-friendly?
Yes — black coffee has zero sugar, zero sweeteners, and no added carbohydrates. No flavoring either. Naturally keto-friendly as a factual spec, not a lifestyle claim.
