Decaf Shakeout Blend Fair Trade Organic

The current version of Decaf Shakeout is made up entirely of coffee from Peru’s Asociación de Productores Cafetaleros Selva Central (APROSELVA) cooperative, which is based in the Junín growing region. APROSELVA is dedicated to improving the livelihood of its 530 members, providing training and financing aimed at increasing quality, yields and producer earnings. Smallholder farmers cultivate an average of ten hectares of land and supplement their coffee production with that of other fruits such as citrus and banana.

Like all decaf coffee at Equator, Decaf Shakeout is decaffeinated using the water process method of caffeine extraction. This chemical-free process allows much of the coffee’s original flavor characteristics to be retained, resulting in a flavorful decaffeinated coffee.

APROSELVA is committed to the preservation of the environment and local wildlife, holding both Organic and Bird Friendly certifications.

We treasure our relationships in the global coffee community and invest in projects at origin to support our partners in their commitment to environmental sustainability and social welfare. We also invest in reducing our day-to-day impact, through initiatives like energy-efficient Loring Smart Roasters to reduce carbon emissions per batch by 80%.

This third-party certification requires us to demonstrate transparency and accountability throughout our supply chain and quantify the impact our business creates for our employees, the community, and the environment. We are proud to be part of this community working together toward one unifying goal: using business as a force for good.
