THE PRODUCER
'Middle Ground' is crafted for those who want full flavour with a gentler lift. Designed to sit comfortably between regular and decaf, it delivers balance, sweetness, and body while reducing caffeine content. The blend is carefully developed to remain consistent and adaptable while maintaining clarity, sweetness, and approachability in the cup.
THE COFFEE
This blend combines the chocolate sweetness and velvety body of Brazilian coffee with the clean structure and gentle brightness of Colombian EA decaf. Notes of milk chocolate form the foundation of the cup, lifted by soft berry character and a smooth hazelnut finish. Medium roasting enhances sweetness and body while preserving balance and drinkability, creating a coffee that feels complete and satisfying.
THE REGION
Coffees in this blend are sourced from Cerrado Mineiro in Brazil and the Huila and Tolima regions of Colombia. Together, these regions contribute complementary characteristics to the cup, balancing sweetness, body, and structure while maintaining a smooth and approachable profile suitable for all-day drinking.
THE PROCESS
The blend combines natural Brazilian coffee with Colombian coffee decaffeinated using the Ethyl Acetate method. This sugarcane-based decaffeination process preserves flavour integrity and cup character while reducing caffeine content. Medium roasting brings the components together, developing chocolate sweetness, syrupy body, and a smooth nutty finish.
IN THE CUP
Expect a smooth and balanced coffee with notes of milk chocolate, subtle berry sweetness, and hazelnut. Full in flavour yet gentler in caffeine impact, 'Middle Ground' delivers a rounded and approachable cup suitable for espresso, filter, or milk-based brewing.
