Is this decaf swiss water processed?

I paid nearly double for this coffee vs. my standard 8 o'clock decaf specifically because the Amazon listing states it is Swiss Water processed. My package does not have the label shown on the Amazon listing, nor does it say anything anywhere about being swiss water processed. I called SF Bay and got a message no one was available to answer my call. In this day & age of consumer demand regarding food ingredients and such this is kind of unacceptable. I will not purchase again without a definitive confirmation that this is indded swiss water processed decaf coffee.

Is the Swiss Water Process used to decaffinate this coffee?

Hi, my name is Sarah from San Francisco Bay Coffee. We use only the water process to decaffeinate our beans. The water process uses water from the pristine environment off of the coast mountains of British Columbia, Canada to gently remove the caffeine until the coffee beans are 99.9% caffeine-free. This method is 100% chemical free. If you have any other questions or concerns please feel free to contact us at service@sfbcoffee.com.

There seems to be nothing on the packaging to indicate this is, indeed, swiss water process decaf....how can i trust that it truly is?

I am wondering why the last two bags of the decaf espresso roast was filled with more crumbled beans than whole beans. what’s up with that?

Sometimes they get crushed , shipping or storage but it's not like anyone is trying to put you out .. Accidents happen, I would be more worried about holes and not having the coffee than crushed beans .. However SFBay is a great company to deal with because they just want you to enjoy the product from start to finish..

Excellent coffee

We were looking for a reasonably priced, tasty decaf coffee. I decided to look on Amazon because I could read reviews from verified purchasers and set up a regular delivery. I found this supplier by chance and ordered a bag of beans. We were pleasantly surprised at the quality of the coffee considering the beans were cheaper than more well known brands. The resulting cup is strong, and full of flavour. There is no chemical taste and friends who don't drink decaf, haven't ever realised that they're drinking a decaf coffee. We use the beans in a bean to cup machine and never have any issues with the brewing unit cloggin because the beans are too oily.I would recommend these beans for a decent cup of decaf coffee, that doesn't taste like decaf!

A really surprising cup of coffee

When we got the new coffee machine we bought two bags of coffee, this being one of them, and a more expensive bag being the second. This is the better of the two. A full rich flavour that seems to be missing in so many decafs. I'll definitely be buying this again and, at the price, definitely worth it.

Best I've tried

Tried several decaf coffee beans, most are weak or lack flavour, but this is different, it's full of flavour, not bitter, and it's cheaper than most of the other decafs, a nice cup of coffee, repeat customer.

Not much taste

I was rather disappointed with the lack of taste of this coffee, even though it was decaf. I found it to be rather bitter, perhaps too much robusta-type bean in the blend. However, it did taste better in a Cappuccino, rather than a straight black coffee. I don't think I will be buying any more.

Absolutely love this coffee. It has a nutty undertone and is also about 4 in strength. It tastes great.

Very good flavour

Had to reduce caffeine intake. Purchased this as a trial. Good flavour, good value as I drink a lot of coffee. Has become my daily coffee.
