Riverside Half Caff: a 50/50 coffee blend

Riverside is Oval’s light-to-medium roast 50/50 blend of caffeinated coffee and decaf, roasted in New York City. Choose whole beans or Pour Over Single Serves. Riverside still contains caffeine; the 50/50 blend ratio does not establish an exact caffeine amount in a brewed cup.

What Half Caff means

Riverside combines equal portions of caffeinated coffee and decaf. The 50/50 ratio describes the coffee blend, not a tested caffeine measurement for each cup. Learn more in the Half Caff Coffee Guide.

Half Caff coffee questions

Are the single serves instant coffee or pods?

No. They contain ground coffee in a filter that rests over your mug. Hot water passes through the grounds, which stay in the filter. Watch how to brew an Oval single serve for a demonstration.

Does the Discovery Set include different coffees?

No. It pairs Riverside whole beans with eight matching Riverside single serves. You explore one coffee in two formats.

Is Riverside caffeine-free?

No. It still contains caffeine. The amount in your cup varies with the coffee dose, serving size and brewing method; the blend ratio does not establish an exact caffeine amount.
