Decaf coffee is made from regular coffee beans that go through a process to remove the majority of the caffeine. However, decaffeinated coffee is not completely caffeine free, and the EU regulation for decaf coffee is less than 0.3% caffeine.

Decaf simply refers to the decaffeination process of coffee, which removes a certain amount of caffeine from the coffee beans. It is similar in taste and appearance to regular coffee, but just has a lower caffeine level.
