Description
Single origin Colombian decaf, Mountain Water process.
Calima is 100% single origin arabica from the Calima region of Colombia, endorsed by the National Federation of Coffee Growers of Colombia and known for a rich, clean taste. This decaf version is decaffeinated by the Mountain Water process, which uses water rather than solvents, so the flavour survives.
A medium roast for espresso, milk coffee, filter or plunger. Available in 250g or 1kg, whole bean or ground to order.
A single origin decaf is rarer than it should be, because most decaf is a blend built to hide what the process took out. Calima keeps it to one Colombian origin, so the decaf tastes like the regular Calima rather than a generic decaf. Buy 250g at a time if you only drink one or two cups a day: decaf goes stale faster than caffeinated beans.
How to brew it
- Espresso machine: fine. Start with 18 to 20g in a double basket and aim for about 25 to 30 seconds; go finer if it runs fast, coarser if it chokes.
- Stovetop / moka pot: fine to medium-fine, a little coarser than espresso. Fill the basket level and do not tamp.
- Plunger (French press): coarse. Roughly 60g per litre, steep four minutes, then press slowly.
- Filter and pour over: medium. Around 60g per litre of water is a good starting ratio.
- AeroPress: medium-fine, with one to two minutes of contact time.

Meet Calima Coffee Beans
Blend or single origin?
A blend mixes beans from more than one farm or country, balanced by the roaster so the cup tastes the same bag after bag. A single origin comes from one place, so it tastes distinctly of where it grew and shifts a little with each harvest.
This one is a single origin.
Which grind should I pick?
- Whole Beans
- Unground, exactly as roasted. Pick this if you have a grinder at home. It keeps its flavour far longer than ground coffee and will always give you the better cup.Shop grinders →
- Ground: Espresso – Commercial
- Fine, set for a cafe machine with a 9 bar pump and a 58mm portafilter. Too fine for most home machines, which will choke on it.Shop commercial machines →
- Ground: Espresso – Home
- Fine, but a touch coarser than the commercial setting, so a domestic espresso machine can push water through it without stalling.Shop home espresso machines →
- Ground: Aeropress
- Medium-fine, between espresso and filter. Suits the short steep an Aeropress uses.Shop brewing gear →
- Ground: Stovetop
- Medium-fine for a moka pot or percolator. Finer than filter, coarser than espresso, so it does not clog the basket.Shop moka pots →
- Ground: Filter
- Medium, for drip machines and pour over. The most forgiving grind if you are not sure which to choose.Shop pour over →
- Ground: Plunger
- Coarse, for a French press. Fine grounds slip past the mesh and end up as silt in the bottom of your cup.Shop plungers →
- Ground: Cold Drip
- Coarse, for cold drip and cold brew. A long steep in cold water needs a coarse grind or it turns bitter and muddy.Shop cold brew →
Ground fresh on the day we dispatch, not pulled off a shelf. If you are between two, whole bean keeps best.

Common questions
Pick the brew method you actually use and we grind to match it: espresso, filter, plunger, stovetop or Turkish. Choose whole bean if you have a grinder at home, which will always give you the better cup.
We grind and dispatch on the same day rather than pulling a pre-ground bag off a shelf, so the coffee is as close to roast-fresh as mail order gets.
Keep the bag sealed and out of the light and it will hold up for roughly two to four weeks after opening. Whole beans hold longer than ground. Do not refrigerate it.
Yes. We run a prepaid twelve month coffee subscription: pay once, choose four coffees and how often you want them, and a kilo arrives on schedule for a year.
