Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee Manor

Blue Mountain Coffee is one of the most advantageous coffee growing conditions in the world. Jamaica's weather, geological structure and topography provide a unique ideal place. The ridge that runs through Jamaica extends to the eastern part of the island, with the Blue Mountains rising to more than 2100 meters. Cool weather, foggy, frequent precipitation, use this rich soil Rain Water to reconcile. Here, a mixed planting method is used to plant coffee trees to accompany banana trees and avocado trees on terraces.

Some small estates also grow Blue Mountain Coffee, such as Wallenford Estarte, Silver Hill Eatate, and J. Martinez) Atlanta Manor (Atlantn Estate), etc. Even the largest landowners in the region are small-scale growers by international standards, many of whom are small landowners whose families have been working on the land for two centuries. The coffee industry in Jamaica is facing a series of problems, such as the impact of hurricanes, increased labor costs and difficult mechanization of terraces. It is difficult to rationalize planting on many small estates and farms.

Development of Blue Mountain Coffee in Jamaica

However, Blue Mountain Coffee is a coffee retailer that values credibility and keeps some coffee in stock anyway. The major retailer in the UK said that he would continue to sell Blue Mountain Coffee all year round regardless of the price, because he had many customers who recognized Blue Mountain.

As Japan has always invested in the Jamaican coffee industry, the cultivation of Blue Mountain Coffee is now mostly controlled by the Japanese, and there is no doubt that they have also won the right of priority to buy Blue Mountain Coffee. In 1992, Jamaica sold 688 tons of Blue Mountain coffee to Japan, 75 tons to the United States and 59 tons to Britain. Now, 90% of the blue mountain coffee is bought by the Japanese. Now that the rest of the world can only get 10% of Blue Mountain, Blue Mountain coffee is always in short supply, regardless of the price. In the UK, Langford Brothers Brothers has been the only supplier for many years. Later, the Edmunds Group (Edmonds Group) also received a supply from Jamaica's Salda Food Company (Salda Foods).

The difference in transportation between Blue Mountain Coffee and other coffee is that it is transported in a 70kg barrel, an imitation of the Bonifieur barrel made in Guadeloupe, originally used to carry flour from England to Jamaica, usually with a trademark and the name of the manufacturer. The Coffee Industry Council issues certificates for all authentic Jamaican coffee and stamps the exporters with approval stamps.

The Jamaican government used to insist that all Blue Mountain coffee is roasted in Jamaica to ensure that the quality remains the same. In fact, baking is a fine art, and it takes experience, training and expensive facilities to do a good job. From the consumer's point of view, coffee beans should be obtained and drunk immediately after baking. Coffee roasting in Jamaica is unlikely to meet this requirement. Now raw coffee beans from Jamaica can be exported.

From the above we can understand the general production of Blue Mountain Coffee, what we need to pay attention to is the Blue Mountain 99 that can be drunk in China. 9% of them are only grown near the Blue Mountain Mountains, and only coffee produced in 6000 hectares above 1600 meters above sea level can be called Blue Mountain, and the output is always below 900t. According to the principle of 10% supply to the world outside Japan, do you think this kind of coffee, which can only be consumed by the world at an annual rate of 90 tons, can be drunk in any cafe in Shanghai for tens of yuan?

The best Blue Mountain Coffee is undoubtedly one of the best coffee available. Although the price can ensure an adequate supply of Blue Mountain coffee, it does not guarantee the best flavor of the coffee. It is also worth noting that this kind of coffee tastes much more expensive than it looks. If you want to taste its best flavor, you have to put more coffee beans than other coffee, otherwise the flavor will not live up to its name, so the real cost of reflecting the flavor is that it has to add 10% to 15% more coffee beans than the coffee whose price is inferior to it.

The real Blue Mountain Coffee is made from the best local raw coffee beans, which is the official pleasure of tasters. Its flavor is rich, balanced, fruity and sour, and can meet people's various needs. In addition, the flavor of high-quality fresh Blue Mountain coffee is particularly long-lasting, as drinkers say-endless aftertaste.

In addition, the best blue mountain coffee beans are NO.1 peaberry, also known as pearl beans, which are carefully selected small round beans in products at an altitude of 2100 meters. They have been told by several Taiwanese friends that they have never had that kind of luck. They are dozens of coffee lovers who buy a bucket, then open a PARTY and hold a bucket opening ceremony to divide it.

Look, the blue mountain.

The Blue Mountains stretch to the east of the island of Jamaica. The mountain has such a good name because the British soldiers who had arrived in Jamaica saw the blue light shrouded in the mountain and shouted, "look, the blue mountain!" from then on, it was named "Blue Mountain". In fact, the island of Jamaica is surrounded by the Caribbean Sea. On every sunny day, the sun shines on the sea, and the distant mountains are shrouded in a faint blue atmosphere because of the refraction of the azure sea. It's kind of mysterious.

Most of the Blue Mountains are more than 1800 meters above sea level, of which the highest peak is 2256 meters above sea level. It is also the highest peak in the Caribbean and is a famous tourist attraction.
