This is quite different to the softer, more rounded drink from the Swiss Water (coming soon but click here to visit thecoffeepod.co.uk to purchase), as this is a single origin coffee from the La Selva co-op, located in the Lacandon jungle of Chiapas and is certified organic.
You could be forgiven for thinking this wasn't a "decaf" you will be pleasantly surprised by its clean and sweet qualities not usually found in decafs, it is clean and bright, with medium body and mild, citrus acidity. It is sweet and very well balanced.

Decaffeination Process
There are two main contenders for the best decaffeination process:-
The Swiss Water method (coming soon but click here to visit thecoffeepod.co.uk to purchase) and the Mountain Water method. They are very similar, differing mainly in the type of filter system they use to extract the caffeine.
Mexican Mountain Water DeCaf uses the all-natural Mountain Water Decaffeination process leaving the coffee 99% caffeine free. The coffee is processed in the DESCAMEX plant (click here for addtional information), preserves the original characteristics, aroma and flavour of their green coffee.
The Mountain Water Decaf process uses clear pure water from the glaciers of the Pico de Orizaba Mountains in Mexico, and has been organic certified by OCIA (as USDA NOP), and JAS since 2003.
Following recent traceability trends, they are also certified as Utz Kapeh /Rainforest Alliance certification.
The coffee producers have been awarded the title of "ESR" (Socially Responsible Enterprise) in 2006 by the Mexican Philanthropic Centre, in recognition of their commitment to the environment, to their community and to their associates
