Oh, coffee, you dangerous bedfellow. Such a seductive after-dinner warmer but so frisky in the wee hours, when everyone else is asleep.

A cup of decaf would be the perfect replacement — if only it weren’t the chemical brother in the joe family.

Brasil Opus 1 Exotic, a coffee that naturally contains less than 1 percent caffeine, has percolated to the rescue. Unlike other decafs, Opus beans aren’t genetically modified or processed to minimize caffeine. The plants are grown and harvested on just a single farm in Brazil following more than a decade of trials to perfect the plant.

The smooth blend of rich chocolate and cherry notes, available as both coffee and espresso, stands up to any buzzy barista brew. Even better, it’s certified by the Rainforest Alliance, which helps to protect rain forests and other endangered ecosystems.

That should help you rest easy.

Available at Caffe Pronto, 90 Russell Street, between West and Smithville Streets, Annapolis (410-626-0011 or caffepronto.com).
