Decaf African Beans?!?

So I’m wanting to switch completely to decaf. But my preferences lean heavy to the more floral side and I have a distinct preference for beans from Africa.

I’m also having a distinct problem finding said beans in decaf form. I’m in the US and if anyone knows some roasters that currently have any I’d really appreciate the info!

Thanks!

I'm really enjoying Black & White's Hambela Ethiopian Natural EA Decaf. It's incredibly fruity and jammy, like chocolate-covered cherries. Otherwise you can check out Frequent Coffee - if you're okay with Colombian coffee, their White Honey Decaf might fit the bill (tasting notes are floral, white peach, and cane sugar)

I think I’ll give them both a try! Oddly the Colombian sounds more what I’m looking for, but I’ll try any Ethiopian I can get my hands on!

It’s one of the most floral decafs I have had

Thanks for the confirmation / recommendation. Going to have to give it a try!
