Low-caffeine varietals.

Over the years, we’ve had the privilege of working closely with the Pascoal family at Daterra, sharing many remarkable lots along the way.

Their commitment to pushing the boundaries of coffee production continues to inspire us, and as our relationship deepens, we’re excited to keep exploring the breadth of their work and bringing more of their coffees to you.

This low caffeine lot is made exclusively from two varieties that have reduced levels of caffeine naturally.

These two cultivars have been under study at Daterra for 2 decades and now, fully adapted, these beans are perfect for making high quality low caffeine coffee.

The Producer

At the forefront of Daterra’s vision is excellence in environmental and economic sustainability, and of course excellence in quality. This vision has seen them become the first rainforest certified farm in Brazil protecting 3500 hectares of forest, carbon negative and becoming the first B-corp coffee farm in the world.

Laurina, an evolved varietal stemming from Bourbon, has 25-50% caffeine content of normal Arabica beans. Aramosa is well known for its florals and also has a lower caffeine content at around half of normal Arabica.

  • Natural

    Ripe cherries are dried whole commonly on patio’s, drying beds or even the bare earth allowing the bean to ferment naturally encased by its fruit.

    The cherries are turned regularly to reduce the risk of defects and ensure even drying.

    Once the cherries resemble raisins and the target parameters are met the coffee is hulled and sorted in the dry mill.
