Decaf Futuro Cafe

About this bean

Decaf Futuro Cafe is a medium-dark roast from Impuls Kiel, sourced from Peru, Cajamarca. It features the Catimor, Caturra, Bourbon variety, processed using the washed method. Washed processing removes the cherry pulp before drying, which tends to highlight the bean's varietal character and produce a cleaner cup with brighter acidity. Medium-dark roasts lean further into caramelised sweetness and body, with origin character starting to give way to roast character. Home baristas on Puck Yeah have logged 3 shots of this bean, with an average community rating of 5.7 out of 10 across 3 ratings.
