A Kicking Horse...without the 'kick' of caffeine
When I was younger, being HIGHLY caffeinated was 'de rigueur' to get through the work day, but the coffee served at most places where I worked in was dismal at best. 🤢 So I began concocting morning coffees for the commute to the office, and as I learned more and more about the amazing world of coffee, I also started mixing my own bean blends for home use. Of course, nowadays, tracking down good ORGANIC coffee is always top of mind, too.Fast forward several years, and now that I'm older, I've discovered that a good 50/50 blend of both regular coffee with caffeine - as well as that without - seems to work much better for me now. I like my sleep. 😉 This is where having a great DECAF coffee is so important.I've tried several different varieties of decaf coffees, but seem to always go back to Kicking Horse. It's a dark roasted brew - my favorite roast - but it also has all the other things I like in a coffee: whole bean/Swiss water process, organic, fair trade, even Kosher. It's a surprisingly very smooth and rich brew. Who knew decaf could be this good on its own? This makes my afternoon (or post-dinner) 'cuppa' that much better!Overall, while I may still 'taste test' other brands, Kicking Horse is one of the best decafs out there, IMHO!

Best decaf coffee!
I really love this coffee - it's the best decaf coffee I have ever tasted. The dark roast has a rich, smooth, bold taste - and it's not bitter or smokey. I love that it is organic and Swiss water process decaffeinated.

Good decaf
This coffee is good, smooth, and tasty. It is expensive; I bought it on a mark-down.

I can't even be mad.
This coffee took FOREVER to arrive. I ordered on the 3rd, today is the 26th. I almost forgot I ordered it, until the other day, when I started to become annoyed. In fairness, I think the estimated delivery date was around the 20th, I'm not positive. I guess I'm spoiled & used to getting things in one or two days. However...all has been forgiven - this was totally worth the wait. Just received my beans, and ground up a batch. I realize your taste may differ than mine, but this is without a doubt the best tasting coffee I've ever had...and it's decaf! Sadly, doctor's orders are no more caffeine, and I used to live on the stuff. Now, I'll enjoy an iced decaf a few times a week. I've been using a popular brand you can find at any department store. It was OK...acceptable. That's all over with now. This stuff is amazing. I don't get where some have said it tastes burnt? You want burnt, go to that popular coffee chain. This stuff is SMOOTH. I can't say enough good things...plus Amazon is now saying if I order more, I'll have it tomorrow? Maybe they do it in batches, so it's available now? I may take them up on that.

Great decaf coffee
This is the best decaf coffee I’ve tried. Bold yet not bitter. Yum!

Just ok.
Bold flavor , pretty good taste, but lacking a lingering aftertaste. I also don't like when companies don't specify exactly what country the beans are from. Maybe you might like it if you don't need a lingering aftertaste.

Great aroma and taste
I grind these and use in my DeLonghi espresso machine, and they work just great (make sure to grind them for the appropriate length of time, for me, 13 seconds is the "magic" number).The aroma and taste are great and I like this is decaffeinated with the swiss water process, which is not as dangerous as the Hag process.

Simply the best-tasting Decaf I could find. Smooth, but expensive shipping!
With all my reviews I give the good, the bad, and a fair summary. The tragedy of this AMAZING decaf coffee lies in things OUTSIDE the product itself, so read below carefully:The GOOD: This is the best decaf coffee I've ever tasted. Consistently smooth when cold-brewed or heated alike. Free of fungus (or that stuff that looks like fungus), and they utilize a "Swiss Water Method" of extracting the caffeine, which is free of the traditional way which uses chemicals or whatever. I have consistently suggested this brand of coffee to others, who then laugh at me for bothering to drink decaf coffee in the first place. I'm almost certain their other coffees are just as good. Bravo. Slow morning clap.The BAD: Because the product is out of Canada, when buying shipping off their website, they'll charge you $17 to ship alone. Get out of here, buddy. The prices on the website are a little lower, but if you notice, the difference is reflected on Amazon, so regardless you're paying for the coffee + international shipping, regardless how they package it.From what I understand, they supply it to COSTCO and Whole Foods, so try your luck finding it there to see if the prices are better. That international shipping is killer, boys.As a plus, KHC will give you a free shipping option for your FIRST purchase, but require the $17 each new time. I'm over here wondering how I can get around that.Regardless, the product itself is a treasure to the taste buds. I just can't get over the price of international shipping. In the future, I'll explore Whole Foods as an option, but until then, I'll make my current supply last as much as I can I guess. Thank you.
