Coffee substitutes/good decaf?

[SaraCate]

Hi,

I am striving to be caffeine-free...or 98% caffeine-free, anyway! I do, however, enjoy a cup of coffee most days because I *like* the taste of coffee. I've never had a decaf that tasted the same, though I've mixed my regular coffee 50/50 with decaf and found that okay. I've never tried any of the grain substitutes or postum-type drinks.

So...do you have a favorite brand for decaf? Is there a coffee sub that truly comes close?

Thanks!

Caffix tastes like a latte if you fix it with milk... not sure how it tastes 'black' though.

If you want a good decaf, then try www.ravensbrew.com .
They have quite literally the best coffee we have ever tasted, and we have found that the decaf is excellent.
Personally, we keep lots of the Billy Goat around here, even though its not decaf, and we use our Air press to make it.

Oh, and its made right here in Alaska!
