About Ladro Decaf Blend
As coffee lovers know, not all decafs are created equal, and the search for one that delivers on flavor, body, and balance can be rife with disappointing cups of discarded wannabes. Ladro Decaf Blend is like finding an oasis in that coffee cup-strewn desert . That’s because the Ladro team selects amazing seasonal coffees from South America and blends them with a specific flavor profile in mind.
This proprietary blend is then taken through the patented Swiss Water Process, removing 99.something percent of the caffeine while retaining the rich, inherent flavor of the beans. Caffe Ladro then dials in a roast level that showcases the complex original flavors of the coffees and a rich body. In this case, a medium roast balances both, for a decaf worth drinking anytime, anywhere.
