We created a delicious half-and-half blend by combining our organic Ethiopian Coffee with its organic, Water-Processed Decaf counterpart.
The result is a light and fruity half-caf with just the right amount of caffeine to enjoy any time of day. Because the decaf component is water-processed, you can rest assured that no harsh chemicals were used to remove the caffeine.
Both the caffeinated and decaffeinated coffees in our half-caf blend were grown on organic co-ops in Ethiopia. Purchasing these organic coffees provides farmers with vital premiums that directly improve their quality of life. These premiums are invested into programs that support more advanced farming techniques, ensuring the exceptional quality of this coffee for years to come.

Reviews
Smooth, full, phenomenal taste. You’ll love it!
"Our absolute FAVORITE brew. We also enjoy Peru and Mexican (we lean toward light to medium roasts), but we ALWAYS come back to this one. SO smooth. Just pure indulgence. As retirees, we laugh about being able to travel the world without leaving our coffee maker. The half-caff is another perk — not having to mix the beans ourselves. We discovered FRC when we couldn’t find decaf beans anywhere during Covid. Won’t go anywhere else now!"

Best darn Half-Caf
"A very tasty brew and my go to, of late. A very flavorful coffee and the caffeine level is spot on. Flavor notes of chocolate and dark berry. Medium bodied and very clean. The aftertaste is pleasant, sweet, and lingering. No bitter notes that I experience and the acidity of the brew is just enough to bring out the best characteristics of this blend. A very satisfying morning brew."
— Ronald B. (5/5)

Necessary & Delicious
"Fresh roasted is the only coffee I order period. It’s organic, fair trade, water filtered, and now they even offer testing for mold! I love to try new roasts but this blend was delicious and I would buy it again!"
— Cassidy D. (5/5)
Delicious and few jitters!
"Most half-caf coffee, to me, is either terrible tasting or you still get really bad jitters. This coffee blew my mind: It tastes fantastic AND I didn't get really bad jitters like with full-caf coffee. It's perfect when you're winding your workday down, and it's also good for evenings when you want a nice cup of coffee but you have an hour before bed. VERY pleased!!!"
— Kathleen C. (5/5)
As always Fresh Roasted Coffee
"As always Fresh Roasted Coffee provides an excellent product. Smooth feeling, and a pleasant taste. Their half caff coffee does not leave you feeling jittery but provides just enough lift to get you going in the morning. I prefer The Mexican organic half caff above all other flavors but the Ethiopian blend is a close second."
