Today, we introduce this blue mountain coffee bean, it is pure Blue Mountain, and it is also one of the coffee products we are very familiar with. "Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee" (Jamaica Blue Mountain) wants to have people who specialize in or like to drink sour coffee, and it should be no stranger to the pure Blue Mountain coffee "Jamaica Blue Mountain"! Because the price remains high, there is very little circulation in the market, and the production capacity is not high, so there are very few blue mountains in Jamaica that can drink real single beans. It should be said that it may be better to buy from a trusted coffee and bean merchant! But often a quarter of a pound is probably more than a piece of Grandpa Mao!

As far as I'm dealing with coffee beans, I love Jamaica Blue Mountain very much, because when I taste it, I don't think it makes you feel like you can't get a reason for drinking a cup of coffee.

Although, at present, many world-class coffee competitions have rarely come out of the Jamaican Blue Mountains! It may be because he belongs to the taste of water washing, and there is no way to stand out like the sun flavor of geisha! But Jamaica Blue Mountain has also done well on the pitch and on the bidding field.

The Blue Mountain in Jamaica is the highest mountain in the Caribbean. It is said that it is more than 2200 meters. Because it is so high above sea level, I heard that the hustle and bustle and climate bring unique flavor to blue beans. It is said that the top production capacity of Jamaica Blue Mountain is more than 2400 tons, of which WALLENFORD is the most important and famous coffee farm, while WALLENFORD, MAVIS BANK, SILVER HILL, MOY HALL and GOLD CUP are relatively well-known brands. (as for the brand part, I don't know much about it, so I took it with me.)

Like the pure blue mountains of Jamaica, they all come in from the port of Yokohama, and then they are all packed in barrels and shipped to China! For example, in the early days, there seemed to be a large barrel, but all I knew was that the barrel was super large-and then there were 15K kegs, which are now more common (I heard that each barrel would be accompanied by a production certificate, that is, a certificate, which proved to be A goods)! Then you will not find it difficult to find that the mainland's Jamaican Blue Mountains are bought from the Japanese! That's right-almost the whole world has heard that they are going to buy it from the Japanese!

The reason for the story is probably that there will also be typhoons in Jamaica. In 1969, because the influence of the weather changed greatly, the blue mountain coffee beans had a great impact on production capacity, so at this time, UCC companies in Japan provided assistance to introduce ecological planting methods. Thanks to the assistance of Japanese companies, Jamaica signed a contract with Japan in 1972 to sell 90% of its annual output to Japan, with the remaining 10% released for sale in the market. I think Jamaica Blue Mountain has also established its dominance in the coffee market because of its rarity.

In the taste part, some people on the Internet will say that he has a 'wine-like mellow' in which mellow and meticulous, it should be said that the sour taste is sweet, simple and uncomplicated! There is no cup tester's disturbing score and complex sour taste, and you won't reject this cup of coffee because of a paragraph from the cup tester!

In the market, many people use Colombian beans and some sour coffee beans to make blue mountain coffee. Many people will think that what you drink is blue mountain coffee, but in fact, it is not. What you drink is more like imitating blue mountain coffee, so it is called blue mountain coffee bean!

In addition, many smart beans will plant coffee beans from the Blue Mountains of Jamaica, such as those grown in Taiwan, but the most famous ones are the birds of paradise in PNG and beans from Butterfly Dance Manor. These smart bean merchants want to say that the production capacity in Jamaica is so low. I thought that the flavor would be the same in other regions. In fact, it is completely different. PNG's blue mountain has a high proportion of flavors, depressing the sour taste buds!. But it also has some flavor. I can only say that Jamaica Blue Mountain is a top overlord coffee that can not be copied, it is worth tasting!
