this decaf comes from poços de caldas, a high-altitude region in minas gerais, brazil, known for its mineral-rich volcanic soil. the coffee is a caturra varietal, processed naturally, meaning the beans dried inside the whole fruit. that process contributes to the sweetness you get in the cup, caramel and sugar cane, with a smooth, clean finish that holds up well without caffeine. because it carries good body and natural sweetness, it works well as a filter coffee or as espresso. grind a little coarser for pour-over to avoid over-extraction, or dial it in on espresso for a sweet, low-acid shot any time of day.

about williams & johnson coffee co.
williams & johnson feels like the coffee shop leith didn't know it needed until it opened on customs wharf. the beans here get the kind of attention most places reserve for their rent calculations, careful, methodical, obsessive in the best way. you can taste the difference in every cup, that clean finish that comes from someone who actually understands extraction rather than just pushing buttons. the 4.7-star rating from 240 reviews tells the story better than any marketing copy could. regulars queue up because they know what consistency means here. the baristas remember your order, sure, but more importantly they remember how you like your milk steamed. not too hot. just right. while the chains automate everything into beige mediocrity, this place still believes coffee deserves respect. leith's getting gentrified from every angle, but at least it's getting proper coffee in the process.
