Decaf Nicaragua Organic Segovia SWP coffee is curated from lots that the Royal team has selected based on cup profile, physical preparation, and potential to express excellency once decaffeinated.  During the Swiss Water process, the green coffee is hydrated to expand the beans for caffeine to leave the green coffee via osmosis while minimizing the loss of desired flavor compounds.  Once the caffeine has been removed, the green coffee is re-dried and re-bagged for transport, and the GCE is filtered of its caffeine through proprietary carbon filters and recycled to be used again.
