But skipping caffeine doesn’t mean they skip coffee. In fact, plenty of Us love the warmth, taste and ambiance of coffee and look forward to our morning (or afternoon . . . or evening) cup — a decaffeinated one, that is. Decaffeinated coffee tastes similar to regular coffee, yet has about 97% less caffeine. When sipped in moderate amounts, the two to five milligrams of caffeine are fairly negligible!
But just as with “normal” coffee, decaf coffee blends aren’t created equal; some blends are acidic, weak and bitter while others are rich, bold and smooth.
