Kicking Horse Coffee, Swiss Water Process, Whole Bean, 2.2 Pound - Organic Whole Bean Coffee Decaffeinated

I think I have ordered this over almost 10 times now? The quality and freshness is basically impossible to beat for decaf coffee. And I have looked extensively. I drink decaf elusively due to a caffeine sensitivity but I just love the taste of coffee. I also am somewhat health paranoid so I only drink coffee that is decaffeinated using water. (no chemicals).This coffee checks all my boxes. It tastes absolutely delightful, uses swiss water decaffeination, and is also somehow the most affordable out there?! Everywhere else I look, sellers want over $2.00/oz. This is roughly $1.40/oz and, as of writing this, it is randomly on sale for $0.99/oz. This is a no brainer folks!As far as taste, what keeps me coming back is that it is the right amount of complex and simple. Some coffees do have a wonderfully complex and exotic taste. But as much as I am a thrill seeker, I don't really like to daily drive those types of coffees. However I certainly do not want Folgers in my cup in the morning. This has a really universally appealing profile in my opinion. It's rich, medium to dark, chocolatey, smooth, and has low acidity when brewed correctly.I am a pour-over kind of person which means I get to screw up my variables from time to time and enjoy some of the hidden character of the coffee. I am not a coffee master by any means but compared to what I have tried, this is quite resilient to bitterness. I have done an accidental 20-minute immersion steep with this coffee and the result was surprisingly enjoyable. Bitter, yes, but very rich and textured and pretty fun. I drank the whole cup!Something IMPORTANT to note. This is by far the best coffee I have tried for Iced-Coffee in the summer, hands down. I do not know what it is, but other coffees, even those expensive and niche ones, just don't take a cold brew quite like this one. A cold-brew of this with some cream and just a dash of sugar tastes like the most expensive chocolate bar you've ever drank. It is seriously good.I really hope they keep this coffee and keep it competitively priced because I will be getting it for the foreseeable future.

It's great! It's hard to find good water process decaf, but this is it!It's strong, flavorful, with no after taste. I have no complaints except that you raised the price, so I'll keep looking.

This is truly great coffee. The flavor is rich, bold, and smooth — especially for a decaf. I really appreciate that it’s Swiss Water Process and certified organic. It tastes high-quality and doesn’t feel like a typical decaf at all.The only downside is the price — it’s a bit expensive for the size. But if quality matters to you, it’s definitely worth trying.

I was looking for a decaf coffee that didn’t taste weak or watered down, and this one exceeded my expectations. It has a rich, bold flavor that’s very close to regular coffee. I was honestly surprised by how smooth and flavorful it is. If you’re trying to cut back on caffeine but still want a full-bodied cup of coffee, I highly recommend giving this a try. I’ll definitely be buying it again!

Excellent rich bold flavor with no bitterness.I wish it was a bit more affordable but if you can afford it it is the best decaf I have ever had and if you made it for someone who says " I don't like decaf" they would never know.

Have already ordered my second shipment. This brand is delicious. Was never able to drink decaf as most I’ve tried were terrible. I am picky about having the Swiss water process and organic beans, so this fits my needs. Not as expensive as some others out there, but definitely not cheap either, but because it it both organic and Swiss water decafed, I am willing to pay a bit more.Update:Okay, so my third order, I went for the larger 2.2 pound package since I liked it so much. This time there was a noticeable difference in the appearance of the beans. They looked much darker and had a slightly burnt nose to them. I often make a blend of decaf and regular coffee so I am hoping my regular coffee will subdue any off-flavor from these over roasted beans. I do however sometimes make a full decaf cup and I’m not sure I am going to enjoy this. Yes, it’s a dark roast, I get that, but there is such a thing as over roasting. My regular coffee is a dark roast, but it’s no where near the darkness of this particular bag. I also realize there is a science to roasting and sometimes there can be variations in the way the bean responds, so maybe this was a “one-off” batch. I may order again since I know the first two times were great, but also may try another brand depending on how long it takes me to get through this big bag. ( I am the only coffee drinker in my house, but I vacuum pack my beans in mason jars in amounts I use up within a week to keep them fresher). Another option would be to get a medium roast to blend to soften the taste a bit. Time will tell.

This coffee is perfect; the aroma is unique. This coffee reminds me of the quality we had in Guatemala. It is fresh, Organic, roast-quality, Decaffeinated, and low-acid. What else could we expect more? Definitely the best of the best.Thank you to the people who created this excellence.

By far the best decaf coffee I’ve ever had. I order it constantly and it is Swiss water process so you’re not getting all the added chemicals. You truly cannot taste the difference between this and regular coffee.

Me gustó mucho el sabor robusto, el tostado es perfecto para mi gusto

Surprisingly pleasant taste, really dark beans, worked well for espresso (I can't drink caffeine but I enjoy coffee flavor).

Excelente café sabroso elaborado con granos orgánicos, lo que significa que no contiene químicos tóxicos provenientes del proceso Suizo de descafeinado con agua. [En ingles - Excellent tasty coffee from organic beans, meaning no toxic chemicals from the Swiss water decaff. process!]

Amazing coffee and the Swiss water process to decaffeinate the coffee is the best. Smooth taste and no acidity.

In my opinion these are the best decaf beans available. Great flavour.
