Our top 10 twitter rants against decaf

Decaf is the poor victim of jokes, abuse and ridicule symbolised by the famous “death before decaf” t-shirts. Where did all this hatred come from? You don’t have tweeters berating mint tea or hot chocolate, but it’s open season for decaf any day of the week. But, perhaps it originates from the fact that decaf has long been horrible – limp, insipid, weak, stale, cheap. We wouldn’t drink half the decaf that’s out there on the market either.

That’s why we created Decadent Decaf Coffee Company. The clue’s in the name. We knew that there were high quality single origin decafs out there using the finest new crop beans, not the sweepings, but they cost more and they used more expensive decaffeination processes, so that’s why roasters were less inclined to use them because many consumers still expected to pay the same for their classic cup of Joe. But, not DDCC.

We’re leading the charge to changes hearts and minds about decaffeinated coffee one cup of coffee at a time. So, if you do try our decaf, you’ll be amazed at the depth of flavour. It’s all about the flavour for us. But…on the other hand, having said all this, we do like some of the anti-decaf tweets - their hilarious and creative.
