Key Points

  • Decaffeinated coffee — the same beans as the Original Bulletproof Coffee, decaffeinated using a water-based process
  • Single-origin coffee — sourced from high-altitude estates in Guatemala (June–December roasting) and Colombia (December–June roasting)
  • Hand-picked beans — only ripe berries selected by skilled harvesters
  • Medium roast — retains the tasting profile of the original bean stock
  • Rainforest Alliance Certified beans from estate farms
  • Whole bean format — grind fresh at home for optimal flavour and full control over grind size

What It Is

This is the Bulletproof Decaffeinated Coffee in whole bean format. It uses the same estate-sourced Arabica beans as the Original Bulletproof Coffee, decaffeinated to remove most of the caffeine while preserving the flavour profile as much as possible.

No added vitamins, no added mushroom extracts, no added Coffeeberry® or other ingredients. The bag contains coffee beans.

This is the after-2pm coffee — suited to those who want to enjoy a hot coffee later in the day without disrupting sleep, or as a general option for those who limit caffeine intake. If you don’t have a grinder or prefer ready-to-brew convenience, the same coffee is also available in pre-ground format.

Sourcing

Where the beans come from: Bulletproof sources beans from estate farms in Guatemala and Colombia on a six-month rotation — beans roasted between June and December come from a Guatemalan estate; beans roasted between December and June come from a Colombian estate. This pattern applies across all Bulletproof coffee roasts.

How the beans are picked: Hand-picked by experienced coffee harvesters who select only perfectly ripe berries. This contrasts with mass-harvest approaches that may include unripe or damaged beans.

How the beans are processed: Beans are sustainably washed and mechanically dried before roasting.

How the beans are decaffeinated: Beans are decaffeinated using a water-based process that removes most of the caffeine while preserving the flavour profile.

Brewing Notes

Whole beans give you full control over grind size, letting you dial in the ideal grind for your brewing method:

  • Espresso — fine grind, per your machine’s recommendations
  • Moka pot / AeroPress — fine-to-medium grind
  • Drip / pour-over / syphon — medium grind
  • French press — coarse grind, 4-minute steep
  • Cold brew — coarse grind, 12–24 hour steep

Grind just before brewing for the freshest flavour. Decaf coffee brews the same way as regular coffee — there’s no adjustment needed for the decaffeination process.

The Bulletproof Coffee Recipe

"Bulletproof Coffee" is a popular preparation method that combines brewed coffee with grass-fed butter (or ghee) and MCT oil. The decaf version works exactly the same way, just without the caffeine hit — making it suited to afternoon or evening use if you still want the fat-fuelled drink but not the stimulant.

Bulletproof Coffee Preparation

  1. Grind 2 cups worth of beans (medium grind for drip, fine for espresso)
  2. Brew 2 cups of coffee using the method of your choice
  3. Combine with 2 tablespoons of unsalted grass-fed butter (or grass-fed ghee for a dairy-free option)
  4. Add 2 tablespoons of MCT oil (such as Primal Warrior C8 MCT Oil or Bulletproof Brain Octane)
  5. Blend in a high-speed blender (or use an Aerolatte® frother) until a creamy head of foam forms
  6. Pour and drink while hot

The fats give the drink a creamy texture and a higher caloric content than plain coffee. Treat it as a meal rather than a beverage if using it as a breakfast replacement.

Packaging Notes

Whole beans stay fresher for longer than pre-ground coffee because the intact bean protects volatile aromatic compounds from oxidation. To extend freshness further, this product is packaged in a nitrogen-flushed bag with a one-way degassing valve — the nitrogen displaces oxygen at packaging, and the valve lets CO2 from the beans escape without letting oxygen in. Bags stay fresh at room temperature for several weeks once received. For longer storage, unopened bags can be frozen (place tape over the degassing valve first to prevent moisture infiltration).

Good to Know

Is decaf really caffeine-free?

Decaf coffee is not completely caffeine-free. Standard decaffeination removes approximately 97–99% of the caffeine, leaving a small amount — typically around 2–5mg per cup, compared with 80–120mg in a regular cup. This is a small enough amount that most people find it doesn’t affect sleep or trigger caffeine sensitivity.

Does decaf taste different from regular coffee?

Water-based decaffeination processes preserve most of the flavour compounds, so quality decaf can taste very close to the equivalent regular coffee. Using the same estate-sourced beans as the Original Bulletproof Coffee, this decaf keeps a similar tasting profile with only subtle differences.

Why whole bean vs ground?

Whole beans stay fresher longer because the bean keeps the volatile aromatics inside until you grind. Pre-ground coffee is more convenient — no grinder needed, less noise. The trade-off is freshness vs convenience. If you have a grinder, whole beans give the freshest cup. If not, the ground version works.

Do I have to make Bulletproof Coffee with it?

No. These are regular decaf coffee beans. Make coffee however you normally do — drip, espresso, French press, or however you like. The Bulletproof Coffee recipe (with butter and MCT oil) is one popular option but not the only way to use it.

I love bulleproof coffee!

I don't usually write reviews because somehow I worry that they're all fake anyway, but I love bulletproof coffee so much I can't tell you.

I buy the decaf version because I am very sensitive to caffeine and this is literally the ONLY coffee I can drink that doesn't upset my stomach.

Not sure why I love coffee so much when this is the only one I can drink, but I thoroughly enjoy it. I usually buy the beans so that I can grind them fresh and put into my french press. Perfect coffee every time.

Great start to the day

I make bulletproof coffee the Dave Asprey way and it starts my day. I like that I can buy decaf and High achiever, plus other varieties too. The testing originally done by Dave means this is a high quality product. Now that he’s no longer involved in that side of the business, I’m hoping they are sticking to the original values bulletproof was based on.

Best Decaf

Bullet Proof Decaf is the nicest I’ve tried, smooth and not too bitter and the quality comes through in the taste. Great product

Friends and family love it.

Tastes great. Friends and family think I have been influenced by the bulletproof brand as I have a broad range of their products. But, I get comments from the same people like “this coffee is fantastic - what is it?” and , when I run out of bulletproof coffee and buy other more expensive beans while I wait for BP delivery “ what happened to your coffee? Get back on the Bulletproof this other stuff is Sh*t”.

Bulletproof coffee

I was hesitant to believe the hype about Bulletproof coffee. I was pleasantly surprised, the coffee tastes great, and the caffeinated version does not make me feel anxious and jittery. The decaf is very tasty and it’s hard to tell you are drinking decaf! Thanks for great ‘clean’ coffee.

All good but….

First order was messed up as it did not arrive complete. The positive was that the customer service team responded quite quickly and sent me the missing item right away.
Many thanks

I can drink coffee again!

I actually gave up coffee for a number of reasons. I am not only very caffeine sensitive, but I found it did things to my skin that weren't great, even organic coffee, I tried them all. This is the only coffee I can drink without any adverse effects, and with all the taste and satisfaction. So glad I found it.
