ABOUT THE COFFEE PRODUCTION

Descamex company, established in 1980 by Mr. Domingo Muguira Revuelta, was the first decaffeination facility in Latin America. Over the years, they have refined methods to deliver top-notch taste, aroma, and consistency. This commitment has earned global recognition for Mountain Water Process. The main focus on optimizing processes to ensure the highest quality and yield from the beans, achieving over 99% decaffeination through a patented water-based extraction method introduced in 1987, and certified organic in 2003.

Water Process:

The process starts with a thorough physical and chemical analysis to determine the best conditions, then steam the beans to prepare them for extraction. The caffeine is extracted under controlled flow, temperature, pressure, and vacuum conditions, using a green coffee extract derived from the coffee beans. After extraction, the beans are gently dried using triple drying system, followed by a polishing step to enhance their quality.
