Aurora Blend Half-Caf (Medium-Dark Roast)
The Aurora Blend is our half-caf blend. It features chocolate, caramel, and fruit. This blend is 50% caffeinated beans and 50% decaffeinated beans.
The Aurora Blend is named for our young daughter, and Aurora (meaning light) provides a light amount of caffeine while featuring a smooth taste. Coffee in the Aurora blend is sources from Peru and Colombia.
Our Colombian coffee beans are decaffeinated using the Ethyl Acetate method. Our coffee beans are soaked in water (extracting the caffeine). Ethyl Acetate is then added to the mixture to dissolve the caffeine. After the caffeine is separated, the ethyl acetate is evaporated, leaving behind our flavorful beans without caffeine. This is a "natural" decaffeination process as ethyl acetate can be found in many fruits, including bananas and apples.
This product is offered in 6 oz samples, 12 oz and 5 lb options. Coffee is available whole bean or ground for home brewer.
Our coffee is roasted, ground upon request, and then packaged immediately to ensure freshness.
