ea decaf cumbres de narińo is a honey-processed decaf from colombia's nariño region, roasted by bluebeard coffee roasters. honey processing leaves some fruit mucilage on the bean during drying, which pushes sweetness and body forward. in the cup it leans citrus-bright, with lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest alongside winey depth, honeycomb, sugar cane, and a cocoa finish. because the profile is lively and nuanced for a decaf, it rewards a brew method that highlights clarity and sweetness, such as a pour-over or aeropress with water around 93°c to keep the citrus notes clean without flattening the honey character.

about bluebeard coffee roasters
the thing about bluebeard coffee roasters on 6th avenue is how they've made tacoma regulars forget that starbucks exists. sure, 1,024 google reviews averaging 4.6 stars tells part of the story. but walk in and you'll understand the real draw. their beans carry that particular weight good roasters achieve, not burnt, not weak, but developed with the patience that comes from actually caring about coffee instead of quarterly profits. the baristas know your order before you finish saying it. not because they're trying to be cute, but because you've been coming here long enough that your morning cortado is just part of the routine. there's something piratical about the name that fits tacoma's port city grit. this isn't precious third-wave posturing. it's honest coffee for people who want their caffeine delivered with competence and maybe a brief conversation about the rain.
