The real Blue Mountain refers to the blue mountain beans of Jamaica, which has always been recognized as one of the best coffee in the world. In an area with an ultra-high seed value of more than 2,000 meters, the coffee grains are full, fermented and removed by semi-washing, and then dried to raw beans that can be exported by 100% sun drying. The prices of raw beans are all around 3000 yuan per kilogram, which is very expensive. The Japanese love tooth horse plus blue mountain beans very much. In Tokyo, a cup of blue mountain coffee costs 60, 000 yen, which is really not cheap. Generally, most of the blue mountain coffee on the market is not the real tooth horse plus blue mountain coffee. Some use Peruvian coffee beans, and some use other beans to mix to achieve a similar flavor, but they are not real blue mountain coffee. It can only be said to be similar to blue mountain coffee. Some taste even worse.

The Blue Mountain legal coffee producing area in Jamaica is constantly shrouded in blue fog, so it is named "Blue Mountain". Blue Mountains is located in eastern Jamaica, across 45 km, 20 km wide, up to 2260 meters above sea level, is the highest mountain range in the Caribbean.

The Blue Mountains are covered with fertile soil with excellent drainage, making it very suitable for coffee cultivation. Located in the legal Blue Mountains of Jamaica, Mavis Bank is also one of the raw bean processing plants certified by the Jamaican government, about 10 miles northeast of the capital Kingston, and has been operated by the Munn Family family since 1885.

Originally the Moon family planted and processed the harvested coffee cherries on Strawberry Hill on the west side of the Blue Mountain. The present-day Mavis Bank processing plant was founded by Victor Munn in 1920 and then run by Victor's nephew, Keble Munn. Keble is not only an agricultural operator, but also the first certified cup tester in Jamaica.

Mavis Bank is already the largest coffee gathering place in Jamaica, and in order to ensure coffee quality, the processing plant collects raw beans from single farms or small farmers in specific areas of the Blue Mountains. The coffee planting and processing area is located in the mountain area with an average of 1600 to 900m, with sufficient altitude, mild afternoon cloud shade, sufficient sunshine and mineral-rich planting soil to provide good growth conditions for coffee trees and prolong the ripening of coffee cherries. In the raw bean treatment stage, only ripe red fruit is harvested, and then manual selection and floating fruit elimination procedure is the basic condition. Farmers send the remaining coffee cherries to another washing station, and then carry out the second selection, and remove the flesh before the evening.

Then carefully sift out any overfermented, unripe or worm-eaten cherries in a large tank before pectin removal. After the pectin is removed, the shell beans are placed on the cement slate and dried in the sun for 5 days, then bagged and stored for at least 10 weeks. Finally, the peeled raw beans will carry out the last procedure of picking defects by hand.
