Dulces Sueños is a blend of coffees from producers involved in the Sueños de Semilla project in Honduras. Each of these producers has been involved in the effort to find an international market for their coffees, and thus a more sustainable price. This decaf blend has undergone a Swiss Water Process to decaffeinate the coffee while preserving the intrinsic quality of the seed. We find this cup to be comforting and sweet with notes of milk chocolate, nougat, almond, and graham crackers.

“This water-processed decaf lot is an exciting and limited offering from Semilla. We consistently strive to purchase as much coffee as possible from the communities we work with in Honduras. Therefore, sending specific lots to the decaf plant in Burnaby allows us to enhance our purchasing commitment and acquire coffees that may slightly exceed our standard criteria for selling as micro-lots. This process also includes some coffees that originally qualified as micro-lots but had a few excess pounds. As a result, we can still purchase coffee that may test slightly outside the ideal range for humidity or water activity at competitive prices.
The benefit is that we’re able to provide fresh decaf coffee to our roaster partners as well. As it can be very difficult to find quality decaf, let alone fresh decaf, this Sueños Decaf lot ensures that a just price was paid to the producer and that you, as a roaster, have a traceable decaf made of high-quality, fresh coffee!” - Semilla
