Context
This decaffeinated lot from Nightjar Coffee originates in Pitalito, Huila, a respected Colombian coffee region known for quality production. The coffee blends Cattura and Castillo varietals, combining classic and regionally-adapted cultivars. Using the washed sugarcane decaffeination process, this method preserves origin character while removing caffeine—a gentler alternative to traditional solvent-based decafing. The roaster identifies warm, indulgent notes of panela and baking cocoa alongside Christmas fruitcake spice, suggesting a full-bodied cup with layered sweetness and subtle complexity typical of well-executed washed Colombian coffees.
