We never use flavors and essential oils to mask low-grade coffee. We start with high-scoring lots we truly believe in, then explore how far we can take the sensory experience. Think of it like cooking a great steak with fine herbs and spices—the seasonings aren't there to hide the quality of the meat, but to elevate it.
Note for Roasters
Every batch comes with a complete processing protocol detailing fermentation hours, additives used, and moisture curves. Complete transparency from farm to cup.
Creating exceptional decaf requires a deep understanding of how genetics, processing, and moisture levels interact with the decaffeination process. By managing our own decaffeination infrastructure at origin, we produce a growing range of decafs, from clean, classic cup profiles to expressive, experimental lots.
Depending on the processing method used before decaffeination, our decaf offerings are categorized within both the Nogales line and Eccentric by Nogales.

Our Decaf Story
It all started on a night when Oscar couldn't sleep after a brutally long day of hard work on the farm—mainly because he had drunk way too much coffee. He laid there thinking, "There has to be another way." That’s when the lightbulb went off: Decaf. The next morning, he called Angie and Anibal to share the idea, and they were immediately all in. Starting completely from scratch, the three of them built a plan without really knowing what they were doing at first; early lab reports kept coming back showing too much caffeine in the samples. But through plenty of trial and error, they mastered it. Today, Nogales Decaf is one of our absolute bestsellers, fully certified down to 0.07% caffeine—real Decaf with a capital D.
