El Vergel Decaf

Martha, along with her two coffee-savvy sons, Elias and Shady, jumped headfirst into the world of experimental coffee. Their mission? To cook up some tech magic that not only elevates the coffee game but also brings a sprinkle of better life quality to the families working alongside them at El Vergel State. Together, they’re not just growing coffee; they’re brewing up a community revolution! We’ve been working directly with the guys from Forest Coffee (Martha, Elias and Shady’s company) since 2022.

This EA Sugarcane process decaf is a great, clean cup full of Caramel, Peach Cobbler, Berries, and Cinnamon – a really good coffee!
