Coffee is grown outside the Blue Mountains and is called Jamaican coffee. It turns out that people in the coffee industry in China generally have a misunderstanding that only coffee grown in the Blue Mountain area above 1800 meters above sea level can be called Blue Mountain Coffee. In fact, there is only one manor on the top of the Blue Mountain Mountains above 1800, that is, Amber, whose owner is of Chinese descent, surnamed Lyn (Lin). Originally from Guangdong, China, the manor has only 30 hectares of land and the output is very small.

Blue Mountain Coffee is mainly distributed in 5 mountainous areas such as John Crow,St.John's Peak,Mossman's Peak,High Peak,Blue Mountian Peak in the Blue Mountains.

The sale of Blue Mountain Coffee

Because of its high price, Blue Mountain Coffee has a relatively fixed consumer group, and its market is mainly concentrated in Japan, followed by some European and American countries.

With the improvement of domestic coffee consumption, a large number of cafes begin to supply "Blue Mountain Coffee", and its price is often only a fraction or a tenth of that of authentic Blue Mountain coffee. In 2005, under the guidance of Taiwan coffee manufacturers, a large number of domestic media began to pay attention to and report the authenticity of Blue Mountain Coffee. So far, authentic Blue Mountain coffee is still out of reach of most domestic consumers because of its price and supply in the mainland market.

Blue Mountain Coffee can maintain its top status today, which is closely related to the local management policy. Its quality is superior, rather than sacrifice output, but also to ensure quality. Therefore, Jamaica is one of the countries with low coffee production in the world. Brazil, the world's largest coffee exporter, produces 30 million bags of coffee a year, while Blue Mountain produces only about 40, 000 bags a year.

There is rarely a blue mountain coffee bean in the "Blue Mountain style" coffee on the market. One kind of "Jamaican mixed Blue Mountain" coffee is a mixture of 30% Blue Mountain Coffee and 70% of the best Jamaican Alpine Coffee. The above two kinds of coffee try to imitate Blue Mountain Coffee, but can not achieve the perfect state.

Blue Mountain Coffee is "given the cold shoulder" in the United States, which has something to do with American habits. Since the 1970s, seasoned coffee has gradually become a favorite. It is to add spices to coffee beans, or to add coffee companions to brewed coffee, flavoring hundreds of coffee. Seasoned coffee is mostly made from cheaper coffee beans. When Blue Mountain Coffee is usually $80 per pound, Maxwell Coffee costs only $3 per pound.
