This lot is a blend of two coffee varieties with considerably reduced levels of caffeine – Aramosa and Laurina. A hybrid of two different species - Arabica and Racemosa – Aramosa is prized for its subtle florality, notes of milk chocolate and typically half the level of caffeine of Arabica.
Laurina, a naturally evolving hybrid of the Arabica variety Bourbon, is inherently very sweet and typically offers vibrant fruit flavours. With 25-50% of the caffeine content of regular Arabica beans, Laurina is extremely popular with coffee drinkers who are limiting their intake of caffeine.
Daterra has become synonymous with high-quality, low-caffeine coffees and this example is smooth, medium-bodied and full of the classic milk chocolate flavours Brazilian coffee is treasured for.
