CAREFULLY SOURCED FROM COLOMBIA

High in the rugged mountains of Nariño, Francy Castillo leads the Berruecos Project — a collective that unites small-scale women producers through collaboration, education, and opportunity. Each farmer handpicks ripe cherries and follows a careful two-stage fermentation process: 70 hours of whole-cherry fermentation followed by natural pulping and an additional 60–70 hours in closed tanks. The result is a coffee rich in character and integrity.

After drying for up to 18 days on patios and tarps, the beans are decaffeinated at Descafecol in Colombia using the Ethyl Acetate (EA) method, a natural process derived from sugarcane and fruit. This method preserves the coffee’s sweetness and delicate fruit tones — offering a cup that’s as thoughtful as it is flavourful.

Through this initiative, Francy and her team empower women to access premium markets, receive fair pay, and strengthen their communities. Their mission goes beyond coffee — it’s about creating lasting sustainability, inclusion, and opportunity across generations.

Each cup of Berruecos Decaf honours the women who pour heart, precision, and purpose into every harvest — proving that coffee without caffeine can still carry incredible depth.
