Cascara Tea. What, Where and How?

Hey Coffee Brewer,

There is something other than coffee brewing today.

You may have heard of Cascara over the last few years.

It is the delicious fruit forward brew made from the husk of a coffee cherry.

The low in caffeine fruit tea has seen some ups and downs over the last few years. But what is it and is it here to stay?


Cascara is usually a bi-product of coffee farming. 

Many of the farms that I have visited, collect the cascara and turn it into compost to use on the farm.

I have also seen cascara being used to make rum in Colombia and brewed fresh to make tea in various countries I have visited. 

It has been a little bit of a hot topic over the last few years in the coffee industry and unfortunately is now deemed illegal in EU countries. 

However, don't panic as there is currently an application pending to make cascara legal again that will hopefully get passed later in the year.
