About Rwandan Retreat Swiss Water Decaf Coffee

This Rwandan decaf is grown by a cooperative of women whose coffee supports their families’ futures. Caffeine is removed with the water-based Swiss Water Process, while the cup retains a juicy fruit profile and smooth honey-cacao finish. Explore it with other specialty coffee selections available through Espresso Outlet.

The tasting notes are sensory descriptions, not added flavors unless explicitly stated. Grind, water chemistry, roast development and extraction influence acidity, sweetness, body, clarity and finish.

Brewing Guidance

Begin filter brewing near a 1:16 brew ratio with water around 195–200°F. Decaffeinated coffee can extract differently from fully caffeinated coffee, so grind finer for a thin or sharp cup and coarser for dryness or bitterness. For espresso, start with an 18 g dose and 36–42 g beverage yield.

A capable Turin grinder makes small grind adjustments repeatable. If you brew concentrated drinks, compare compatible Turin espresso machines and weigh both dose and beverage yield.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does Rwandan Retreat Swiss Water Decaf Coffee taste like?

Apricot, strawberry, plum, honey and cacao nib. Perception varies with dose, water and extraction.

Are the tasting notes added flavors?

What brew ratio should I use?

Start around 1:16 for filter coffee and adjust for strength, drawdown and finish.

Can I prepare it as espresso?

Yes. Begin with an 18 g dose and 36–42 g beverage yield, then adjust grind and yield by taste.

Great Service! It has been a few months since I purchased my machine, but I absolutely love it. Initially I had some issues with damage from shipping, but Joe took care of it immediately so there were no problems. He also stayed on the phone with me for a long time the day I received my machine so I could get everything working properly. I highly recommend!

Great customer service! Joe worked with me from purchasing a grinder to ultimately returning and changing to a different grinder. It’s a tough decision buying without seeing or using and the fact that a business is willing to work with their customers goes a long way with me. I would definitely recommend Joe and EspressoOutlet.
