Tokuma SWD T6925 90-1796: A Decaf Specialty Coffee with Full Sweetness from Jimma

Tokuma SWD T6925 90-1796 originates from Gomma District, Jimma, Agaro, in the Oromia region. This land is renowned for its highland coffee farms, where the cool climate and an altitude of 1,950 – 2,200 meters above sea level create ideal growing conditions. Jimma enjoys a tropical monsoon climate, with a rainy season lasting from March to October, ensuring an abundant water supply for coffee plants to thrive.

The temperature in this region remains stable throughout the year. Daytime temperatures range from 24–27°C, providing warmth for efficient photosynthesis, while nighttime temperatures drop to 12–13°C, allowing the coffee beans to develop slowly, accumulating more sugars and enhancing their flavor complexity. This significant day-night temperature variation is key to Jimma coffee’s natural sweetness, long-lasting aftertaste, and intricate aroma.

The coffee varieties used in Tokuma SWD T6925 90-1796 are JARC 74110 and 74140, both developed by the Jimma Agricultural Research Center (JARC). These varieties were selected for their high resistance to diseases, high yield, and exceptional sweetness with a complex aftertaste. This strong genetic foundation ensures that even after undergoing Swiss Water Decaf processing, Tokuma SWD T6925 90-1796 retains its distinct character.

Sustainable Cultivation – Preserving the Terroir’s Identity

Tokuma SWD T6925 90-1796 is cultivated by the Tokuma Farmers Group, a collective of farmers in here dedicated to improving quality through shared knowledge and sustainable farming practices. These coffee plants grow in a natural ecosystem, harmonizing with the local environment without the use of harmful chemicals.

Each season, the harvesting process is entirely manual—taking place in November 2024—where only the ripest cherries are selected. This careful selection ensures maximum sweetness and a complex flavor profile. Beyond preserving quality, this meticulous harvesting guarantees consistency and full traceability, a crucial factor in Specialty Coffee standards.

Processing – From Pristine Coffee Beans to Refined Decaf

After harvesting, the coffee undergoes a Natural process, enhancing its sweetness and developing a rich complexity. To achieve decaf status, it then undergoes the Swiss Water Decaf (SWD) process, a chemical-free caffeine removal method that preserves the coffee’s original flavor integrity.

The SWD process begins by steaming green coffee beans, expanding their cellular structure in preparation for caffeine extraction. Next, the beans are immersed in pure water saturated with a small amount of caffeine, creating a solution with a lower caffeine concentration than the coffee beans themselves. Due to natural diffusion, the caffeine migrates from the beans into the solution, effectively removing caffeine while maintaining the beans’ valuable flavor compounds.

Once the process is complete, the beans are rinsed, dried to their original moisture level, and carefully packaged for transport. The result is a well-rounded decaf coffee, rich in aroma, offering an authentic coffee experience—without caffeine but full of depth and emotion.

Caffeine-free, yet full of flavor. Tokuma SWD Т6925 90-1796 offers an impressive experience with a harmonious balance between deep sweetness and freshness. Its multi-layered aroma evokes notes of hard caramel candy, pecans, and golden raisins, capturing the essence of Jimma’s terroir.

At first sip, Tokuma SWD delivers a smooth, rich sensation, akin to the melting of hard caramel candy on the tongue. The caramelized sugars developed through the Natural processing method create a gentle, full-bodied sweetness that lingers in the mouth.

Gradually, the sweetness expands, revealing herbal and nutty undertones. You might detect a light, warm, and comforting pecan nuance, reminiscent of autumn nut-butter pastries. The natural oils from the coffee beans contribute to a soft, refined aftertaste.

At times, the bright note of golden raisins emerges, offering a distinct sweet-tart balance. This liveliness is not overpowering but integrates seamlessly into the overall profile. Slowly, these flavors intensify, like the last rays of sunlight at dusk, awakening the senses.

As the tasting experience settles, a gentle blend of nutty sweetness and caramel whispers through the finish, lingering in the mouth like a soft melody, inviting you to slow down and savor each moment. A well-rounded conclusion, leaving behind a lasting impression, like an unforgettable tune.
