Sometimes, however, we come across gems like this one from **Swiss Water's small batch series**. And of course we pick them for you! * **About the origin: ** Gold Mountain Coffee Growers brings together over 70 producers in Nicaragua, whose community is characterized by high quality standards, social entrepreneurship, careful use of resources and traceability in cultivation. * **About the processing: ** At Finca Idealista, this coffee is partly carbonic macerated, partly natural (dry) processed and then decaffeinated using Swiss Water Processing. Speaking of **decaffeination**, how it works in this case: a first batch of green coffee beans is soaked in water to dissolve all water-soluble components (caffeine and aromas). The caffeine is then filtered out of this enriched water. The water is now saturated with the coffee's aromas and thus only removes the caffeine from the next, newly added green coffee batch. Et voilá! A decaf with all its natural aromas. If you want to know more, please [click here.](https://www.swisswater.com/pages/coffee-decaffeination-process)
