Brew guide

Le Calme works with everything. Espresso, drip, French press, pour-over — no method loses. It’s your evening cup, your second pot of the day, or your all-day coffee if you’re cutting back on caffeine. It behaves closer to a regular coffee than any decaf you’ve tried. In milk drinks, it holds its character the same way our caffeinated roasts do. No compromise, just coffee without the jitters.

Roast approach

Medium-dark, leaning into the sweetness. Decaf beans roast differently. The Sugar Cane process makes them more porous, so they absorb heat faster and the cracks are harder to read. We slow the roast down to compensate, giving it an even development that regular speed would miss. The goal is to bring out the chocolate and brown sugar that Chiapas is known for, while keeping enough structure that the cup doesn’t fall flat.

Sugar Cane decaf
99.9%
caffeine-free
no chemicals, no compromise

Most decaf uses industrial solvents that strip flavor along with caffeine. Le Calme is decaffeinated using ethyl acetate naturally derived from fermented sugarcane — no chemicals added. The green beans are steamed to open their pores, the caffeine is gently dissolved out, and the beans are dried back down. The caffeine is gone. The coffee stays.
