The caffeine is extracted from freshly peeled, still green coffee beans and the decaffeination is carried out in a water bath at high pressure. Only after the decaffeination is done are the coffee beans dried and roasted. You will never find more than 1% caffeine in a cup of this coffee. Despite being decaffeinated, Lavazza DEK is a rich, creamy espresso.

Where does coffee come from?

Brazil. This country is one of the largest coffee-growing countries in the world and is called the king of the coffee market. Up to 400 million coffee trees are grown here, and therefore a large number of varieties. The coffee was grown in the state of Minas Gerais, which is one of the most important coffee-growing areas in Brazil and is at an altitude of around 1,100 meters above sea level. Coffee beans from Brazil are known on the world market as “Brazils”. Most Brazilian coffees are characterized by a rich foam and extraordinary bittersweet and chocolate flavors. Colombia . The ideal altitude and unique soil conditions guarantee top-quality coffee here. Harvesting takes place throughout the year due to very different microclimatic conditions. The best Colombian coffee originates in higher areas (up to 2,000 meters above sea level) near the equator in rich volcanic soil. The main coffee growing areas include Medellin, Armenia and Manizales. Colombia grows about 12% of the world's coffee production, making it the second largest coffee producer after Brazil. Coffee from Colombia is of high quality and is processed using the wet method. It is also one of the highest quality solo varieties on our market.

Arabica

Arabica is a fragile shrub or tree that is sensitive to parasites. For this reason, it is grown at higher altitudes, especially in mountainous areas at an altitude of up to 2000 meters. It is often grown on volcanic soil, where frost rarely occurs and due to lower humidity, the widespread occurrence of pests can be prevented. Arabica is of high quality, contains less caffeine and also offers us a wide range of delicate flavors and aromas. The beans are slightly larger than those of robusta and are sensitive to temperature during roasting.
