Peet's Coffee Decaffeinated Ground Coffee - Decaf Major Dickason's Blend

The story behind Peet's Decaf Major Dickason's Blend begins with a loyal customer's passion and an expert's palate. Retired army sergeant Key Dickason, a regular at Peet's original Berkeley store, brought the idea for this beloved blend to founder Alfred Peet in 1969. Intrigued, Peet worked with the local gourmand and coffee aficionado to refine the blend, sampling countless combinations before arriving at what is now Peet's all-time bestseller.

The result was so exceptional that Peet decided the blend deserved more than just Dickason's name - it also deserved a promotion from sergeant to major. Thus, Major Dickason's Blend was born, combining the best origin coffees from the world's premier growing regions, each imparting its distinctive regional characteristics to create a smooth, balanced, and deeply satisfying cup.

For a decaf version of this beloved Peet's Coffee to earn the Major Dickason's name, the company felt it had to brew the absolute finest decaf cup in the world. So, they used the exact same premium beans as the original to create a decaf blend just as full of flavor, body, and aroma, but without any caffeine. The mellow, satisfying richness of Major Dickason's Decaf stands alone among decafs, whether prepared in a press, by drip, or as espresso.

Over the years, Major Dickason's Blend has become the coffee that epitomizes Peet's: flavorful, deeply roasted, and unsurpassingly satisfying. But for the Peet's team, "Major D" is just like a relationship with an old friend, a story of a customer's passion, an expert's palate, and a shared love of coffee.

Peet's Decaf Major Dickason's Blend is a dark roast, flavorful, robust, and full-bodied coffee that is perfectly suited for drip or pour-over brewing. For other brewing methods like espresso, cold brew, or French press, Peet's recommends their whole bean coffees and grinding at home. Peet's decafs are naturally water-processed to remove caffeine, not flavor, ensuring that the decaf version tastes as good as the real thing.

As masters of their craft for over 50 years, Peet's hand-roasts the very best coffees in the world, and the Decaf Major Dickason's Blend is a testament to their commitment to quality and flavor. It's a rich, complex, and incomparable coffee that captures the essence of Peet's legacy.
