History and status of Jamaican Coffee

The history of Jamaica and coffee can be traced back to the early 18th century.

In 1717, King Louis XV of France ordered coffee to be grown in Jamaica and Governor Nicholas in the mid-twentieth century. Nicholas Lawes imported Arabica seeds from Martinique and began to plant them in St. Andrew.

Jamaica is an island country located in the Caribbean Sea, east of the Jamaica Strait, facing Haiti, about 145 km north of Cuba, the third largest island in the Caribbean.

Jamaica has a tropical rain forest climate, with the rainy season from May to June and September to November every year, with the most showers in January and May, rich precipitation, local fertile volcanic soil and suitable temperature, which has created the mild and clean taste of Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee. As well as rich, lasting flavor, but also laid a solid foundation for the reputation and quality of the Jamaican Blue Mountains.

There are three varieties of Jamaican coffee: Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee (Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee), Alpine Coffee (Jamaica High Mountain Supreme Coffee Beans) and Jamaican Coffee (Jamaica Prime Coffee Beans).

According to the standards of the Jamaica Coffee Authority (CIB), the coffee beans produced from the hillside to the top of the Jamaica Blue Mountains above 2200 feet can only be called Jamaica Blue Mountains. Then the beans are screened according to the shape and size of the beans, which are divided into NO.1, NO.2, NO.3 three grades, plus a PB (Peaberry, that is, round beans).

The pure Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee, derived from the coffee mother tree in the Botanical Garden in Paris, France, has not changed after hundreds of years of planting. It can be said that Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee is expensive because of its pure pedigree and inheritance, so that people can drink the taste and traces of history.

The second reason why Jamaican coffee is expensive is that the Japanese, who have a fondness for Blue Mountain Coffee, not only stir-fry this coffee, but also selflessly help Jamaica Blue Mountain to improve the level of coffee cultivation and tide over the difficulties. For a long time, Jamaica Blue Mountain was monopolized by Japan, and the price naturally went up.

Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee has a clean and quiet taste and a lasting and unique flavor, which is rarely seen in other coffees.
