El Buho (The Owl) is a remarkable decaffeinated coffee from Colombia, produced using the Ethyl Acetate (EA) method, also known as the sugarcane decaffeination process. This coffee is sourced from the lush regions of Huila and Tolima, renowned for their exceptional coffee farms.

Roasted to a medium-light profile, El Búho delivers a smooth cup with delicate notes of toasted nuts, golden syrup, and a refreshing hint of lemonade.

The Ethyl Acetate decaffeination method is a natural process that uses high-altitude spring water and Ethyl Acetate, a compound found naturally in coffee cherries as well as in various fruits and vegetables. The EA used in this process is derived from sugarcane, making it a sustainable and chemical-free approach to decaffeination.

In this process, the beans are first steamed to open their pores, then rinsed repeatedly with the Ethyl Acetate to gently extract the caffeine. Afterward, the beans are dried to a moisture content of 10-12% and sealed with a natural wax that preserves the flavor and aroma without affecting the taste of the coffee.

This gentle water-EA process ensures that the coffee retains its natural structure and distinctive characteristics, delivering a smooth, clean cup without the need for excessive heat or pressure
