    Thanks! My issue is I get good coffee from somewhere, and then I get a decaf and it doesn’t taste that great. Gotta brew it for ages too and use extra coffee or it’s weak.

    I don’t think I’ve tried the hummingbird decaf so will give that a go.

      I guess the decaffing removes the flavours as well. I monitor my blood pressure with a wrist strap that optically measures it 20+ times a day. I can easily see my BP rises coinciding with whenever I have a coffee. Luckily it doesn’t make me jittery though.

        If I have coffee in the afternoon I notice it affect my sleep, and I don’t get enough of that as it is. But sometimes I just really feel like a coffee. So the answer is decaf 🙂

      Seconding Hummingbird decaf - I used to have Hummingbird Crave every morning, which was my favourite from their line, but now I prefer the flavour of the decaf one anyway.

      I think they also do a few 50/50 decaf/caffeinated blends too.
