We believe drinking a Decaf coffee shouldn't mean compromising on flavour and quality. We treat the roasting of our decaf beans with as much care and attention as we do all our other coffees.

Always naturally decaffeinated using the Swiss Water Process, we make sure to not compromise on quality and flavour just because you don't want the jitters.

Currently being sourced from Colombia, our Sleeper Cabin blend is carefully chosen to provide the decaf coffee drinker with a well-balanced coffee, that can also hold its own in milk-based drinks.

The story of this coffee is a true success story and one that we admire. Abdella Nabi Galgiyo started in coffee in 1982 as a small-scale trader of coffee and other commodities. As his business grew over time, he later started a small cooperative to run a dry mill and started moving larger volumes of coffee, which he began to brand Suke Coffee. After much success, Abdella started his own farm in 2018, and the next year saw his first harvest. In 2020, he processed his first farm lot for export and here we are today with a truly amazing coffee.

Abdella's journey spans over decades. We admire his entrepreneurial spirit, his willingness to take risks and grow from those experiences. Nensebo Suke is a fruit forward coffee, super sweet. It makes a pleasantly sweet drip coffee and an interesting espresso.
