Arabica coffee variety Typica is one of the varieties closest to the original species, with a slightly longer bean shape, clean citric acid taste, sweet aftertaste and elegant flavor, but its physique is weak and its resistance to leaf rust is low, so it is not easy to grow and plant, and its yield is low. Excellent manor beans such as the Blue Mountains of Jamaica, Manning of Sumatra and Kona of Hawaii all belong to Tibika.

Jamaican coffee beans have a long history. In 1728, the then British Governor Nicholas Lowe Sir Nicholas Lawes imported coffee from French Martinique Island to Jamaica. Because the local climate was very suitable for growing coffee beans, Jamaica exported 83000 pounds of high-quality coffee nine years after its introduction. The Blue Mountain Coffee producing area is located in the east of Jamaica. Only those growing in this area at an altitude of 3000 to 5500 feet are authentic [Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee] (Jamaica Blue Mountain). Other coffee growing at an altitude of 1500 to 3000 feet can only be called [Jamaican Alpine Coffee] (Jamaica High Mountain). Coffee grown below 1500 feet above sea level is Jamaica Supreme or Jamaica Low Mountain. Coffee growing above 5500 feet is not allowed in conservation forests.

The Jamaica Coffee Authority was established in June 1950, officially responsible for improving and maintaining the quality of exported coffee beans. There are currently five government-certified 100% Blue Mountain coffee processing plants: Warren Wallenford,Mavis Bank, Old Inn Old Tavern,Silver Hill,Moy Hall.
