Typical Caffeine Amounts:
Arabica Coffee: 1.2-1.8%
Laurina Coffee: .2-.8%
Decaffeinated Coffee: .1%
What Makes Laurina Coffee Special?
Coffee's Laurina variety is a naturally occurring low in caffeine bean. Because it's low in caffeine, it's especially appealing to bugs and pests in the wild. So much so that the plans nearly went extinct.
In 2002, the Vargas at Doka Estate began cultivating the beans. The initial yields weren't great but the coffee sure is! This Laurina, like many that you'll find out there brings minimal bitterness and acidity and has a delicate, sweet flavor. You'll notice floral and fruity notes too.
