The coffee produced in Jamaica is polarized, and the coffee grown in the lowlands is of ordinary quality, but the Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee produced in the highlands is regarded as the most advanced variety in the world and is regarded as the most famous, expensive and controversial coffee in the world.

Since 1953, CIB has classified coffee grown in this region as Blue Mountain Coffee according to its special origin. By 1980, Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee had become so famous that some British and American retailers labeled it as "Blue Mountain Coffee" on non-Jamaican coffee. To this end, CIB specially designed a label that can only be affixed to 100% Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee in 1984-1985. There are also Jamaican alpine coffee and preferred coffee Logo.

Jamaica is a tiny coffee grower, accounting for only 0.02 per cent of the world market, with 85 per cent of its exports to Japan.

In order to ensure the quality of Blue Mountain Coffee, CIB has made a series of specifications:

1. Clearly define the production area

two。 Choose to plant Arabica tin card varieties

3. Training coffee farmers (planting techniques, harvest handling techniques, environmental protection, etc.)

4. Improve coffee processing skills (insist on picking by hand, picking only fully ripe red fruits; use water washing; control drying conditions so that the target moisture content of coffee beans is 12%)
