More About Decaf Brazil Fruitas Proibidas
Decaf Brazil “Fruitas Proibidas” – 30ml Coffeeroasters
Decaf Brazil “Fruitas Proibidas” is a caffeine-free specialty coffee from 30ml Coffeeroasters. This unique blend from Brazil offers the experience of high-quality coffee, but without the caffeine. Thanks to careful selection and processing, the flavor remains full and aromatic. Below, read more about the background, flavor, and characteristics of this distinctive bean.
Origin and estate
This decaf comes from Minas Gerais, a Brazilian region known for quality coffee. The beans are cultivated on two family fazendas: Fazenda do Lobo and Fazenda Recanto. On these high-altitude farms (around 1,000 meters) the climate is ideal for coffee cultivation. Recanto has been producing since the 19nd th century high-quality coffee, a tradition that is evident in the harvest. The combination of experience and terroir results in consistent, characterful beans that form the foundation of this blend.
Roast profile
Decaf Brazil Fruitas Proibidas is lightly to medium roasted to preserve the subtle flavors. This relatively light roast gives the coffee mild acidity and a smooth body. Thanks to the balanced roast profile, it tastes full and rounded whether as an espresso or lungo, as well as when brewed as filter coffee, without excessive bitterness. You won’t taste smoky or burnt notes, only the pure, natural flavor of the Brazilian bean.
Flavor and aroma
In the cup, you’ll taste notes of dried fig and fresh citrus. There are also clear hints of chocolate and almond, which together lend an almost dessert-like character. The mix of fruity and nutty nuances brings a surprisingly rich complexity, especially for a decaffeinated coffee. The name “Fruitas Proibidas” (“forbidden fruits”) is no accident, a playful nod to its seductively fruity profile.
Processing Method
After harvest, the cherries are naturally dried (“natural process”) with the fruit pulp still on, which adds extra sweetness.2The green beans are then decaffeinated using the liquid CO₂ method in Germany.2 In this process, liquid CO₂ extracts only the caffeine from the bean, without using chemical solvents. Thanks to this gentle technique, the flavor remains virtually intact while the caffeine content drops to a negligible level (less than 0.1%).
Variety and species
Decaf Fruitas Proibidas consists of 100% Arabica coffee beans. The blend combines several Arabica varieties that grow on the two fazendas. Think of well-known Brazilian cultivars such as Catuai and Bourbon; such a mix of varieties gives the coffee extra depth.
Sustainability and ethics
Fazenda Recanto was one of the first Rainforest Alliance–certified farms in Brazil and has designated part of the land as a nature reserve to protect biodiversity.2The decaffeination is environmentally friendly as well: the CO₂ method leaves no chemical residues and the removed caffeine is reused in other products. Moreover, 30ml works with importers who ensure fair prices and support for coffee farmers, contributing to social sustainability.
Brewing Recommendations
This decaf suits different brewing methods perfectly. Thanks to the well-balanced roast, it tastes full and rounded as an espresso or lungo, with a nice crema and without sharp bitterness. In milk drinks like cappuccino, the chocolate and nut flavors really come into their own, ideal for the evening because the caffeine is absent. Even with filter methods, it brews a soft, aromatic cup. Since it’s decaffeinated, this coffee can be enjoyed at any time of day.
Recognition and reviews
Decaffeinated coffees rarely win prizes, but the quality of Fruitas Proibidas is certainly recognized. One of the supplying farms (Recanto) has won awards in the past, which inspires confidence in the beans. Enthusiasts note in reviews that it is just as full and aromatic as a regular coffee and that you can hardly tell it’s decaf.
Packaging design
The beans come in a sturdy, resealable bag that keeps them optimally fresh. Each 250 g bag has a one-way valve, allowing gases to escape while preventing oxygen from reaching the beans. The design is clean kraft paper with the 30ml logo and a clear label listing the coffee name, country of origin, and tasting notes, so you can immediately see what you’ve brought home.
Availability and price
Decaf Brazil Fruitas Proibidas is available year-round from 30ml Coffeeroasters, both online and in their own cafés. A 250 g bag costs about €12.50. For higher-volume use there are larger packs (such as 1 kg and 3 kg) at a lower price per kilo. Some specialty webshops also offer these beans at a comparable price.
