simmer down decaf is a washed peruvian coffee from the cajamarca region, roasted to a medium level by west berkshire roastery. it's made from bourbon and typica varietals, two of the older, well-regarded arabica varieties, and processed using the washed method, which tends to produce a cleaner, more defined cup. the medium roast keeps the origin character intact without pushing into heavy body or bitterness. it suits filter brewing well, where the clarity of a washed coffee comes through most clearly. a solid option if you want a proper cup in the evening without the caffeine.
