Introduction:

Blue Mountain Coffee-

Coffee drinkers have probably heard of Blue Mountain Coffee and know that Jamaica Blue Mountain is a great coffee! But are all the blue mountains we drink real blue mountains?

'Blue Mountain flavor'

It just means that the coffee tastes like Blue Mountain (not necessarily), and there may not even be a real Blue Mountain coffee bean in it.

'Jamaican coffee'

Blue Mountain Coffee comes from Jamaica, but Jamaican Coffee is not necessarily Blue Mountain Coffee.

'Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee'

That's Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee, but it takes some conditions to call it Jamaica Blue Mountain No.1.

Why is it called Blue Mountain Coffee?

The Blue Mountains are located in the eastern part of the island of Jamaica, surrounded by the Caribbean Sea. Whenever the weather is clear, the sun shines directly on the blue sea, and the peaks reflect the bright blue light of the sea, so they are called 'Blue Mountains'. The Blue Mountains, with fertile volcanic soil, fresh air, humid climate, foggy and rainy all the year round, have created the world-famous Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee as well as the highest price in the world.

There are three grades of coffee in the Blue Mountains: blue Mountain Coffee (Jamaica Blue Mountain), Alpine Coffee (Jamaica High Mountain) and Jamaican Coffee (Jamaica Low Mountain or Jamaica Supreme). Coffee grown below 1500 feet above sea level is called Jamaican coffee. Coffee grown between 1500 feet and 3000 feet above sea level is called mountain coffee. Blue mountain coffee can only be called blue mountain coffee at an altitude of 3000 to 5000 feet. The price of blue mountain coffee is several times higher than that of alpine coffee. Blue Mountain Coffee is divided into No.2 and No.1, and No.1 is one of the top.

At present, the top production of Jamaica Blue Mountain No.1 has about Wallenford, Mavis Bank, Old Tavern, RSW Estate and so on, of which Wallenford is the only special Jamaican state-owned processing plant. The legal production area of Blue Mountain Coffee is 3000-5000 feet. Wallenford Estate only selects blue mountain coffee beans that grow more than 4000 feet above sea level for processing. The Blue Mountain Coffee produced by Wallenford Estate is known as "Superior Quality". Of all the Blue Mountain estates in Jamaica, Wallenford Estate performs best in terms of quality management, stability, popularity and flavor.

What's the flavor of Wallenford Blue Mountain No.1? The general evaluation is nothing more than sour, sweet, mellow but not bitter, excellent quality, memorable and unforgettable.

No.1 (Wallenford estate jamaica blue mountain coffee) of Wallenford Manor in Blue Mountain, Jamaica

The delicate sweet notes of the Jamaican Blue Mountains, which taste like wine, have always been the favorite of Japanese coffee lovers. Its rare output is the representative of fine coffee, and it is also one of the most expensive coffee in the world. However, not all coffee produced in Jamaica can be marked with the Blue Mountain logo. It must be certified by the Jamaica Coffee Authority, produced in a specific administrative district of the Blue Mountain and at a certain altitude in order to obtain Blue Mountain certification. This product is produced from the old Warren Buddha Water washing Plant (Wallenford) with a typical Blue Mountain flavor. (shallow baking in barreled Blue Mountains shows perfect balance, with a hearty taste and a long finish.)

In 1728, coffee was introduced to Jamaica for the first time. Due to the suitable soil, climate, light and other conditions in Jamaica, the quality of coffee was excellent. Andrews extends to other areas.

In 1737, Jamaican coffee production reached 83000 pounds per year.

Over the next 40 years, a large number of private landowners appeared, and until 1800, there were 686 coffee farms in Jamaica.

As a result of the serf trade, labor costs rose sharply, and the landowners were overwhelmed by the cost. By 1850, the number of coffee plantations had decreased to 186.

By 1900, the Jamaican government established the first coffee quality standard, but the standard was boycotted by many private landowners and was not implemented.

Since then, due to the lack of quality standards, the export quality of Blue Mountain coffee was uneven, which greatly affected its international reputation. in 1943, Canada, a big importer of Blue Mountain coffee, refused to import Blue Mountain coffee.

In 1944, the Jamaican government realized the necessity of regulating the blue mountain coffee industry and reformulated three regulatory proposals for the blue mountain coffee industry:

1. Concentrated processing of Blue Mountain Coffee beans

two。 Establishing the quality Standard of Blue Mountain Coffee

3. Set up CIB to be responsible for the organization and management of the market and the role of export supervisor

In 1948, the world-famous Jamaica Coffee Agency (CIB) was officially established, and the Jamaican government enacted the "Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee Industry Management Act". The main responsibility of CIB is to improve the quality of Blue Mountain Coffee and regain its global reputation through management and supervision.

At this time, the definition of Blue Mountain Coffee has been strictly stipulated in the law:

1. Four statutory coffee farms, including wallenford, are given centralized processing of blue mountain coffee beans to ensure the quality of blue mountain coffee.

two。 Growing in the blue mountain area of 3000-5000 feet.

3. Blue Mountain Coffee Export Grade: No.1/No.2/No.3/ Round Bean

Since 1960, some management functions have been assigned to the oldest and only state-owned Blue Mountain Coffee Manor-Wallenford Estate and Wallenford Manor have become synonymous with CIB, shouldering the missions of improving the quality of Blue Mountain Coffee, formulating management rules and innovating the management of the coffee industry. The manor managers are also appointed by the government. All exported Blue Mountain Coffee from Jamaica is also named Wallenford Estate Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee, the highest level of Blue Mountain Coffee.

Since 1827, in the eyes of coffee lovers all over the world, Wallenford Estate has a history of nearly 300 years and is the oldest blue mountain coffee farm in Jamaica. Wallenford Manor, which was the first to grow Blue Mountain Coffee in Jamaica, is known as the national treasure Wallenford Blue Mountain Coffee, the highest level of Blue Mountain Coffee. Its production is limited and is usually chosen by the royal aristocracy at a high price. Today, Wallenford is the most stable and trustworthy Blue Mountain Coffee processing Manor in Jamaica and is world-famous for its high quality Blue Mountain Coffee.

Jamaica is famous for producing Blue Mountain Coffee in the world. at the same time, it is located on the coast of the Caribbean and is often hit by hurricanes. The hurricanes in the 1940s and 1950s destroyed most of the Blue Mountain manors in Jamaica. Coffee trees, manor facilities, roads and other losses are beyond the capacity of the landowners. In order to boost the production capacity of Blue Mountain Coffee, the government made the decision to support and sell the Blue Mountain Manor. Coffee investors from Japan, Britain and other countries are lucky to own most of the Blue Mountain estates in Jamaica. Nonetheless, the Government of Jamaica has not completely waived its reservation over Blue Mountain Coffee (Jamaica's national treasure). While most of the estates are sold and privatized, WALLENFORD ESTATE is the only remaining estate managed directly by the Government of Jamaica, with the most stringent quality control procedures and not excessive pursuit of commercial operation, but with safeguarding the reputation of Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee as its own responsibility.

With the globalization of the reputation of Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee and the global introduction of Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee cultivation, there are many fake Blue Mountain flavor coffee on the market, which has seriously affected the excellent reputation of authentic Blue Mountain Coffee. In recent years, the Jamaican government has urged Blue Mountain coffee to be roasted and exported in original packaging in Jamaica, rather than in the form of raw beans, in order to avoid the impact of counterfeit Blue Mountain flavor coffee. The importance of this measure is that the Jamaican Coffee Bureau can monitor every link of the Blue Mountain Coffee export to ensure the purity and high quality of Blue Mountain Coffee.

WALLENFORD's unique Jamaican statehood makes it more mandated by the Jamaican government, including:

1.CIB (Coffee Industry Board, Coffee Industry Bureau) jointly manages and regulates the quality of Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee.

two。 Guide all Blue Mountain Coffee Manors in Jamaica to promote management innovation.

In fact, part of the function of CIB to regulate the quality of Blue Mountain Coffee is located in WALLENFORD. For example, there is a consensus within the coffee industry to obtain the quota of Blue Mountain 1 imported by WALLENFORD, that is, the quota of CIB to the country or the company.

Wallenford Manor only selects the best Blue Mountain Coffee fruits for processing, and the quality process control is particularly strict. In the evaluation of all Jamaican Blue Mountain estates by coffee glutton around the world, Wallenford performs best in quality management, stability, popularity and flavor.

In the Blue Mountain region, the legal production area for Blue Mountain Coffee is 3000-5000 feet, and Wallenford only selects Blue Mountain Coffee fruits grown above 4000 feet above sea level for processing. Not only that, among the four statutory Blue Mountain coffee processing plants in Jamaica, Wallenford and Mavis Bank,Silver Hill,Moy Hall account for 90% of Jamaica's Blue Mountain coffee exports, and Wallenford,Moy Hall's Blue Mountain coffee is known as "Superior Quality" (absolute quality).
