5LB Subtle Earth Organic Decaf - Swiss Water Process Decaf - Medium Dark Roast - Whole Bean Coffee - Low Acidity - Organic Certified by CCOF - 5 Pound Bag

I have not drunk coffee, decaf or otherwise, for many years because I simply cannot handle caffeine. I used to drink decaf but even that adversely affected me to the point where I had to quite altogether.I researched the Swiss water bath method of decaffeination and thought I should be able to handle a coffee processed that way so-o-o-o I then researched coffees and settled on this one; I am absolutely blown away by how good this coffee is.It is so smooth and aromatic and non-acidic (as was their claim). . . . Tastes amazing! Way better than I could have imagined. I tested it by drinking two full cups on an empty stomach, which should have caused me to dash to the bathroom after being so unaccustomed to it but there was absolutely no effect whatsoever and no caffeine jitters, at all.Again, just blown away by this product. Oh, and the price is way better than so many other comparable products. Thank you Subtle Earth for making such a wonderful natural and organic product. I am one happy coffee drinkin' camper.

No stomach upset. No caffeine i can't have it so that's a plus, low acid is a plus also great flavor you can drink it with or with out creamer full bodied rich flavor.

Normally we purchase our organic decaf coffee beans at a small coffee shop in Montreal, Canada (we live in New York State near the border of Canada, so we visit Montreal frequently) because we find it very difficult to locate flavorful organic dark roast decaf coffee, despite years of searching. Due to the stay-at-home orders and border closures, we have been forced to search for a new coffee source since we can’t get to Montreal. During a recent Amazon search I found this organic decaf whole-bean coffee, so after reading other reviews, I decided to try a bag. Wow! What a lucky find!! This coffee is exactly as described...medium-dark roast (which proved very flavorful), extremely fresh, water-processed decaf, PLUS it’s a fair trade product sold at a fair price. Our order arrived promptly (even with the recent delays due to the Covid virus) and was well packaged. As soon as I opened the package, I was greeted with an amazing, rich aroma, and the cup of coffee it produced was equally delicious. Some reviewers expressed reservations since this coffee is not “Swiss Water Processed; however, I am unsure how much of a negative issue this is, but it certainly doesn’t impact the quality of this particular brew. We grind our beans rather fine as we brew our coffee with a single size Melita filter, but I imagine any brew method would yield a great cup of coffee from these beans. I would highly recommend these beans and I will definitely order this coffee again.

Was hesitant because I’m used to buying cheap coffee. But I’m so glad I splurged, it’s lovely, dark rich flavor, not acidic.

My purpose for buying the product was to find an enjoyable coffee that is without caffeine. I have a genetic variant that makes me a very slow metabolizer of caffeine and so it will keep me up at night regardless of when I drink it.All of my research into the Swiss Water Process gives me the confidence that it will render a virtually caffeine free product. This led me to Don Pablo.While I do like the taste, it is as some reviewers have noted - the Swiss Water Process apparently removes some of the flavor that I have come to love in regular coffee. Don't get me wrong - it's a fine coffee. But I don't detect the full richness I have enjoyed in other regular dark roasts. So maybe it's in the roast? I don't know. Perhaps I will try other brands to compare.These are the only reasons I gave it four stars. A richer flavor would have gotten five.And, I love that it's organic.Thanks for a good coffee at a great price!

I don’t mind grinding my own coffee and wanted organic decaf bc regular store bought decaf was bothering my stomach so much. Gave up caffeine years ago due to fibroid breast tissue and the diuretic effect. This coffee tastes great.

Great taste. This is my go to for decaf.

Just exactly as described, Rich, Smooth, Low Acid!!! Wow! I'm impressed!! I made an espresso shot then tried it straight. This is the real deal, smooth, low acid and rich flavor. It looks shiny but I dug into bean with fingers and fingers were not covered in any oil. The flavor is not of cigarettes as described by one buyer, it's a slight smoky flavor. I've been buying whole coffee bean for my espresso machine for seven years now. This is the best decaf I've ever tried! It will pair well with my Gustos Cafe Premium bean from Puerto Rico. The bean looks like a dark roast due to all decaf beans becoming dark and not green while in the soaking bath. I'm sold on the Swiss Water method. And the price is great! Not out of line with any other bean. Shipping was two days as promised. I have Amazon Prime so free shipping. Don't those beans look yummy in the picture!! Update : just bought my third 2 LB bag.
