    Don Pablo Bourbon Infused Coffee

    Calling all bourbon lovers. You can now enjoy the taste of bourbon in your morning coffee (without the alcohol!). Don Pablo Coffee introduces its bourbon-infused roast, crafted in small batches that creates an intense, full-bodied blend that definitely isn’t your average cup of joe. The flavorful, aromatic roast has quickly become a sought-after blend among those with a love for specialty coffee that’s nonalcoholic. With intense tasting notes and superior beans, the brand has taken the art of roasting to new levels. By soaking the coffee beans in real Kentucky Bourbon, they then are roasted to perfection for a delicious infusion of flavor without the alcohol.

    How to Brew the Perfect Cup of Bourbon Coffee:

    Traditional Drip Machine: Add two level measuring tablespoons of finely ground coffee (fine granular sand, not yet a powder) to each six ounce cup of water.

    Hand Drip Method: Add 2 level measuring tablespoons of medium-fine ground coffee to each six ounce cup of water. Heat water to 190-195 F (88-90.5 C) degrees, pre-soak grounds, slowly add water in a clockwise motion. Adjust to taste.

    French Press: Add 2 level measuring tablespoons of coarse ground coffee per six ounce cup of water and adjust to taste. Water temperature should be between 190-195 F (88-90.5 C) degrees. Never add boiling water.

    *For an unforgettably intense Bourbon flavor and aroma, add two fully rounded measuring tablespoons of finely ground coffee to each six ounce cup of water. Whole Bean recommended for optimal flavor.

    Subtle Earth Organic Swiss Water Process Decaf

    Naturally decaffeinated utilizing the Swiss Water Process method. Tastes like the real thing without the caffeine!

    Full body with a deep, rich, chocolaty flavor and a clean finish. Smooth milk chocolate with notes of honey, caramel and cocoa. 100% Arabica coffee, Non GMO, Certified Organic by CCOF.

    The slight caramelization of the natural sugars in the bean give this Medium-Dark coffee a touch of roastiness, while it still retains its natural flavor character, giving it a sweet, pleasant aftertaste with low acidity.

    *Note: Because of the Swiss Water Processing, the beans will appear darker than the level they are roasted to.

    All Don Pablo Decaf Specialty Coffees are decaffeinated utilizing the Swiss Water® Process method, which uses nothing but pure water to gently rinse the beans of their caffeine content without disrupting their natural flavor. The Swiss Water Process ensures the beans are guaranteed to be 99.9% caffeine-free.

    Don Pablo then small-batch artisan roast these special beans to slightly caramelize the coffee’s natural sugars just right, and give a slight roastiness to a naturally smooth, sweet coffee. The result is a sweet, rich, and oh-so-smooth low-acid coffee that tastes just like the real thing – without the caffeine!
