Can I buy real Blue Mountain Coffee in China?

Follow the caf é (Wechat official account vdailycom) and found that Beautiful Cafe opened a small shop of its own.

Blue Mountain Coffee refers to coffee brewed from beans from the Blue Mountains of Jamaica. According to the grade, it is divided into Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee and Jamaican Alpine Coffee. The Blue Mountains are located in the eastern part of the island of Jamaica, hence its name because it is surrounded by the Caribbean Sea. On clear days, the sun shines directly on the blue sea, and the peaks reflect the bright blue light of the sea. Generally, if you are afraid of being deceived, go to the place of origin in Jamaica to buy. At present, there are few counters specializing in buying and selling Lanshan coffee in China, and authentic products can only be bought at the counters of Lufthansa, Guiyou, etc., in international metropolitan shopping malls such as Beijing and Shanghai.

As for the purchase channels, they are as follows:

1. Buy UCC blue mountain coffee beans, UCC is very awesome, do not play CIB certification logo still sell, later will say the reason. The disadvantage is that although it is sold in China, it is not common, it is best to find someone to buy from the mud boom or their own daily Amoy, UCC Lanshan No. 1 Taobao purchasing agent price will not be lower than 400RMB per 100g, previously bought in Hong Kong UCC vacuum bag 250g Blue Mountain coffee bean powder (lower grade), 170HKD or so.

two。 Find a reputable shop to buy in bulk, on Taobao, in order to avoid the suspicion of advertising, not to mention the shop name, the same grade bean price is only 1/4 of UCC, the disadvantage is that it depends entirely on the reputation of the boss, to put it bluntly, there is no guarantee.

3. Looking for a regular agent, that is, Dan Shirui mentioned above, the price of beans of the same grade is similar to that of UCC.

4. Human flesh can climb over the wall, such as Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. If you are far away, you can go directly to Jamaica. Hong Kong AEON can buy UCC Blue Mountain (not Blue Mountain No. 1, not UCC Blue Mountain Synthesis, I have looked for it on Taobao, but not like this), and Central TATA Coffee can buy beans with certificates (called birth paper in Hong Kong).

5. Looking for a coffee trading company to buy raw beans, the advantage is that the price is extremely high (relative to ripe beans.) Cheap, per kilogram of Lanshan No. 1 raw bean price can be less than 500 (quantitative ah quantitative!), the disadvantage is, not a few tens of kilograms of birds do not bird you, it is recommended to trench to a bucket, each barrel of 70Kg, with certificate of origin oh dear! A bucket can make more than 6000 cups. Oh, honey! The shelf life of raw beans is one year, dear! Finish it within a year, honey! Drink 16 cups of water a day without pressure, dear! Join the roaster together. With regard to price, the price and channel of domestic blue mountain coffee beans are quite chaotic, the high price fried in the early years can not come down, the price difference of the same grade raw beans and cooked beans is 10 times, and the low level sells the top price. In addition to formal agents, other messy channels, Gaza a variety of "Blue Mountain flavor", "Blue Mountain deployment" is also muddling the water. No wonder many people question the 89 yuan Blue Mountain.
