Mavis Bank is the second largest national brand of Blue Mountain Coffee in Jamaica. Located halfway up the Blue Mountain Mountains, the factory is mainly based on the selective acquisition of raw beans from local coffee farmers and unified treatment (the growing environment of beans is about 1200-1400 meters, and the variety of beans is Tippi Karan Mountain branch). Its cooked bean brand is translated as "Best Blue" in China and is well-known among domestic coffee consumers.

This batch of Blue Mountains adopts Mavis Bank's most optimized NO.1, uses medium fresh baking, has rich sweet aromas of oolong tea, chocolate, roasted almonds and black sugar, supple acidity, silky and full touch, shallow and comfortable bitterness, obvious back sweet, long lasting and long aftertaste, so it has the best balance of sour, sweet, bitter and mellow, and is known as coffee without defects.

Blue Mountain Coffee is the most superior coffee in the world, with less production and scarcity. 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. The highest peak of the Blue Mountains, which is 2256 meters above sea level, is the highest peak in the Caribbean and a famous tourist attraction. Located in the coffee belt, with fertile volcanic soil, fresh air, no pollution, humid climate, foggy and rainy all the year round (the average precipitation is 1980 mm, the temperature is around 27 degrees), this climate has created the world-famous Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee. It also creates the highest price coffee in the world. This kind of coffee has the characteristics of all good coffee, not only full-bodied and mellow, but also because of the perfect combination of sweet, sour and bitter coffee, it has no bitter taste at all, only a moderate and perfect sour taste. It is generally drunk on a single product, but because the output is very small and the price is extremely expensive, it is generally made with coffee with a similar taste on the market.

The "secret" of why Blue Mountain coffee tastes pure: their coffee trees are all on rugged hillsides, and the picking process is so difficult that non-local skilled women are simply unable to do it. It is very important to choose the right ripe coffee beans when picking. Immaturity or ripeness will affect the quality of the coffee. The picked coffee beans are shelled on the same day, and then let them ferment for 18 hours. After that, the coffee beans were cleaned and screened. The subsequent process is to dry, which must be carried out on the cement floor or on a thick blanket until the humidity of the coffee beans drops to 12% 14%. And then store it in a special warehouse. Take it out and roast when needed, then grind it into powder. These procedures must be strictly mastered, otherwise, the quality of coffee will be affected.

Of course, in terms of brand promotion, the Japanese contributed to Jamaica's Blue Mountain Coffee.
