Blend Origin Story
Heritage Decaf was built around a simple idea: decaffeinated coffee should feel every bit as intentional as the rest of our coffee program. Rather than treating decaf as a secondary offering, we approach it with the same focus on sweetness, structure, sourcing, and consistency that guides every coffee we roast. The goal is a cup that feels complete, balanced enough for everyday drinking, expressive enough to stand on its own, and versatile across both filter and espresso.
We begin with high-quality coffees selected for their inherent sweetness and structure, knowing that decaffeination changes the way a coffee responds during roasting. Heritage is processed using a water-based decaffeination method, allowing us to remove caffeine while preserving as much of the coffee’s original character as possible. From there, the work shifts to the roastery, where we develop the coffee to a medium degree that emphasizes caramelized sweetness, body, and balance without allowing roast character to overwhelm the cup.
That roast profile sits intentionally between our lighter and more developed offerings. We want enough development to create warmth, texture, and familiarity, while maintaining the clarity and sweetness that distinguish specialty coffee. The result is a profile centered around soft chocolate, caramelized sugars, and rounded fruit, with a clean finish and enough structure to perform equally well on its own or with milk. As with the rest of our coffee program, consistency is maintained through careful production roasting, color measurement, and sensory evaluation. We cup regularly to make sure Heritage continues to hit the same balance of sweetness, development, and clarity from batch to batch.

Financial Transparency
We as a company believe that transparency is unbelievably important. The point of listing things below is not to justify what we charge or what we profit, but to give a realistic snapshot of the industry and how specialty coffee can be different than other commodity industries.
Green Cost
$5.15
What we paid
The subject of paying for green coffee is inherently complicated. While the amount paid is very important, the payment terms and type of contract negotiated matter just as much. We...
Pay Structure

Traceability in payment
Our pay structure grade reflects how traceable and equitable the payment chain is for a given coffee— how directly money reaches the producer, the terms of the contract, and how...
C Market Price

Commodity price at time of purchase
The C market sets the commodity price for coffee at the time of purchase. Listing it alongside what we actually paid shows how far specialty coffee can move beyond the...

Import cost
Getting coffee from origin to our roastery costs real money— ocean freight, import fees, and trucking. We list the per-pound logistics cost so the full picture of what a coffee...
Cup Score

Objective sensory quality score
Cup score is an objective sensory measure of quality, scored against the SCA standard. Anything above 80 points is specialty grade; every point above that is exponentially harder to find.

Green Cost
The subject of paying for green coffee is inherently complicated. While the amount paid is very important, the payment terms and type of contract negotiated matter just as much. We buy on forward contracts with producing partners we return to year after year, paying well above both the commodity market and fair trade minimums.
Pay Structure
Our pay structure grade reflects how traceable and equitable the payment chain is for a given coffee— how directly money reaches the producer, the terms of the contract, and how much of the final price stays at origin.
C Market Price
The C market sets the commodity price for coffee at the time of purchase. Listing it alongside what we actually paid shows how far specialty coffee can move beyond the commodity baseline.
Transportation
Getting coffee from origin to our roastery costs real money— ocean freight, import fees, and trucking. We list the per-pound logistics cost so the full picture of what a coffee costs is on the table.
Cup Score
Cup score is an objective sensory measure of quality, scored against the SCA standard. Anything above 80 points is specialty grade; every point above that is exponentially harder to find.
Lot Size
Lot size tells you how rare a coffee is. Small microlots are separated at the farm level and available only briefly; blends and evergreen offerings are produced continuously, shown here as ∞.
Roast Profile
We roast to tight tolerances, with no more than 1° deviation from target temperatures. During the roast, we keep an especially close eye on rate of rise (RoR)- or the rate at which the bean temperature is increasing.
