Product Details Return to Top Tasting Notes Coffees from farms surrounding the El Triunfo Biosphere Reserve in Mexico provide the cup with plentiful body, as well as a unique, spicy chocolate note, and flavors of ripe, dark fruit. Rating: 90 Points (out of 100) Balanced and classic. The acidity is sweet and well integrated, the mouthfeel round and cleanly smooth, the flavor rich and straightforward with coffee fruit (the closest analogy is red cherry) that hints gently at milk chocolate. Long, resonant finish. — Ken Davids, CoffeeReview.com, September 2004 About Green Mountain Coffee® A great tasting cup of coffee can give you a whole new perspective. It's a moment to pause, reflect, and reprioritize. That moment is what inspires us to make coffee that benefits everyone it touches. From carefully sourcing and roasting the highest quality beans, to supporting small farms and protecting the environment, we focus on what's important. That's why we at Green Mountain Coffee® believe a good cup of coffee can change your day... but a great cup of coffee can help change the world. Notes From Origin Deep within the Sierra Madre mountains of Southern Chiapas is one of the world’s most pristine and diverse natural places—300,000 fog-shrouded acres known as the El Triunfo Biosphere Reserve. This extraordinary cloud forest is home to the resplendent quetzal, spider monkey, jaguar and tapir. Hundreds of butterfly species flit among giant tree ferns, bromeliads and orchids. It is one of the few remaining unspoiled places in Mexico, and all of Latin America. In the buffer zone surrounding the reserve, family farmers grow coffee under the shade of a forest canopy, which provides habitat to countless species of migratory songbirds—nearly 400 species of birds have been recorded in El Triunfo Biosphere Reserve — mammals and insects. In this way, the buffer zone both protects the core zones of the biosphere, and promotes sustainable commerce for the surrounding communities of farmers.

All of the inns served this coffee. I liked it so much, I came back to NC, visited online and saw this blend. It is absolutely the best decaf coffee I've ever had. Now I'm sharing this, and your other coffees, with my Dad. Thanks for the great coffee.Comment on this review2/12/2010 4.0Excellent!

Previously I had been drinking Green Mt's Fair Trade Organic House Blend Decaf, which is also very good. But I think the Nat'l Wildlife Blend tastes even better. I drink only decaf coffee/teas and so I serve decaf coffee when I have family/friends over. Because decaf coffee is often perceived as having poor flavor, I don't disclose to my guests that I'm serving them decaf. And should they find out that it's decaf that they just drank, they don't want to believe me. In fact, no one ever believes that my coffee is decaf b/c it tastes so good! Only true caffeine addicts would probably know the difference b/c they wouldn't get the normal buzz that caffeinated coffee gives them. I've had other decaf coffees that taste pretty good (not as good as Nat'l Wildlife House Blend). But I choose Nat'l Wildlife b/c it uses the Swiss Water Process of decaffeination (sp?), which is better than the standard method of decaffeination. I give this coffee 2 thumbs up!Gift:NoComment on this review4/23/2009(1 of 1 customers found this review helpful) 5.0WOW !

I have tried many,many decaf brands and the flavor and aftertaste were most disagreeable. I decided to take one last shot at finding a balanced, acceptable(read drinkable)decaf and found an amazing cup of decaf I can honestly look forward to every day.Gift:NoComment on this review4/16/2008(2 of 2 customers found this review helpful) 5.0Fantastic Coffee!

I have other brands that sit on my shelf going unused after I've tried them. This Organic National Wildlife Decaf is the new standard by which I judge all other coffees. I use it for lattes but also very good as Americana (espresso with hot water added for a full cup of 'coffee'). I don't care for coffee that is too acidic and I've never had a coffee that was this smooth. The sweet overtones are just that, it is a wonderful base for a syrup sweetened latte, but it is a great stand alone coffee with just overtones of sweetness. Wonderful aroma.Comment on this review2/21/2007(1 of 1 customers found this review helpful) 5.0WOW!
