Overview
Peet's Decaf Major Dickason's Blend is a dark roast decaffeinated ground coffee in a 10.5 oz bag, the decaf version of Peet's longtime signature dark roast.
Peet's decaffeinates using a water process rather than chemical solvents, aiming to strip caffeine while keeping the roast's flavor intact. Major Dickason's is the brand's flagship dark roast blend, so this bag is meant to taste close to the caffeinated original rather than like a typical thin decaf.
- 10.5 oz bag of ground coffee
- Dark roast, Major Dickason's Blend, decaffeinated
- Water processed to remove caffeine
- Ground for drip or pour-over brewing
Who it's for
Fits evening coffee drinkers or anyone cutting caffeine who still wants a full-bodied dark roast rather than a watered-down decaf. Not the choice for someone who prefers a light or medium roast profile.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Water processed decaf, not chemical solvent based
- Built from Peet's dark roast Major Dickason's blend
- Suited to drip or pour-over brewing
- Smaller 10.5 oz bag than many ground coffees
- Not suited to espresso or French press
Performance notes
Water processing removes caffeine before roasting rather than using chemical solvents, which Peet's says preserves more of the bean's original flavor. The result is ground for drip or pour-over brewing, styled after the brand's dark roast Major Dickason's Blend.
