Our High Quality Decaf Offering

Decaffeinating with Care for Our Tanzania Coffee Beans

When you think about coffee, the first thing that probably comes to mind is that rich, comforting aroma and that deep, full-bodied flavor. But what if you could enjoy all of that without the caffeine jolt? For those who love coffee but prefer to skip the caffeine, decaffeinated coffee is a perfect solution. At the Mt. Meru Coffee Project, we're excited to offer a decaf option made from our exquisite Tanzania coffee beans, and we use the Swiss Water Process (SWP) to ensure that the flavors you love remain intact—minus the caffeine.

What Is the Swiss Water Process?

The Swiss Water Process is a chemical-free method of decaffeination that uses only water, temperature, and time to gently remove caffeine from coffee beans. Developed in Switzerland in the 1930s and perfected over the decades, it's considered one of the cleanest and most sustainable ways to decaffeinate coffee, with no use of solvents or artificial substances. This makes it an ideal choice for those who are looking for a pure, natural coffee experience without the caffeine content.

Why We Choose the Swiss Water Process for Tanzania Coffee Beans?

Tanzania is known for its rich, diverse coffee-growing regions—particularly the highlands near Mount Kilimanjaro and Mount Meru. The beans from these regions are typically bright, fruity, and well-balanced, often with notes of citrus, berry, and chocolate. Tanzania coffees have a vibrant acidity and a complex flavor profile that many coffee lovers crave.

When it comes to decaffeination, it’s essential to preserve the delicate and distinctive flavors of the beans. The Swiss Water Process excels in this area, ensuring that the nuances of the Tanzania coffee remain intact. Since it’s a water-based process, it avoids introducing any harsh chemicals that might interfere with the coffee's original flavors.

What Can You Expect from Our Decaf Tanzania?

Whether you’re drinking it in the morning or winding down in the evening, our decaf Tanzania coffee offers a delicious, caffeine-free alternative that doesn’t compromise on taste. It’s perfect for anyone who loves coffee but wants to skip the stimulating effects of caffeine, or for those who want to enjoy a second or third cup without worrying about staying up all night.

Why We Love It

At the Mt. Meru Coffee Project, we believe that coffee should always be an experience—whether it’s caffeinated or decaffeinated.  So, next time you're in the mood for something smooth and mellow, try our decaffeinated Tanzania coffee.
