Carefully curated blends of 50% decaf + 50% regular coffee. 250 grams.

What is Half Caf Coffee?

Half Caf coffees are blends of 50% regular and 50% decaf coffee, designed to reduce caffeine while keeping the flavour of a regular cup.

Creating a good half caf isn’t simply about mixing any two coffees. The coffees need to complement each other - in flavour, body, and roast development - so the result feels cohesive, not compromised.

Why choose Half Caf coffee?

Half caf is for people who love coffee, but want a gentler caffeine boost.

It’s a considered middle ground - offering the familiarity and satisfaction of a full cup, with less caffeine intensity. For many, it’s not about drinking less coffee, but about finding a version that feels more balanced and more sustainable day to day.

Half Caf Coffee FAQs

How much caffeine does half caf coffee contain?

As the name suggests, a half-caf blend will contain approximately half the caffeine of regular arabica coffee.

Does lower caffeine mean less flavour?

No! Caffeine itself plays only a small role in how coffee tastes. While caffeine is bitter, it contributes very little to overall flavour compared to factors like variety, terroir, processing, and roast profile.

What really shapes flavour is the quality of the coffee, the care taken in growing and processing it, and how it’s roasted - not the caffeine content.

Who is half caf coffee for?

  • People who enjoy a caffeine boost but want less edge
  • Anyone mindful of how caffeine affects their sleep, anxiety, or overall wellbeing
  • Coffee lovers looking for a considered middle ground
