What is the love implication of Blue Mountain Coffee? how does Blue Mountain Coffee taste?

Before the boutique coffee culture became popular, authentic Blue Mountain Coffee has always been recognized as the most expensive and the first heard of and widely known by most Chinese people. Everyone knows that Blue Mountain coffee is expensive, but not everyone knows why, so whenever coffee is mentioned in the past, people can't help but associate it with Blue Mountain Coffee. Also because of its high popularity, many coffee products on the market will be advertised as Blue Mountain Coffee, Blue Mountain Coffee, Blue Mountain No. 1 Coffee, but these will not be authentic Blue Mountain Coffee. Only beans grown in the Jamaican Blue Mountains above 666m above sea level can be called Blue Mountain Coffee.

In the past, authentic Blue Mountain coffee beans were expensive because of the small planting space and less coffee production, coupled with the fact that the former Blue Mountain coffee was monopolized by the Japanese, which led to high prices. Nowadays, there are more and more coffee beans with high quality and good flavor, and the price of some coffee beans is even several times that of Blue Mountain coffee beans, coupled with the fact that the Jamaican government cancelled the preemptive right in Japan in 2008, so it is not difficult to buy it now. The coffee in front of the street can sell authentic Blue Mountain one coffee beans.

Why are you so sure that the blue mountain beans sold in front street coffee must be authentic? The authentic Blue Mountain Coffee No.1 coffee is packed in a wooden barrel and is the only country to hold coffee beans in a wooden barrel, and the Jamaican government will issue a certificate of certification when it is exported. The Blue Mountain Coffee stopped at Qianjie Coffee is a certificate issued by the Jamaican government coffee sentence. For the first time, the Blue Mountain beans from Front Street Coffee come from Clifton Manor, the only Rainforest Alliance certified coffee farm in Jamaica, so there will be a green frog logo on the barrel. All these can be seen in the physical coffee shop in Qianjie.

So why did Japan get the preemption right to Blue Mountain Coffee before? Because in 1969, the blue mountain area was hit by a hurricane that put the coffee industry in trouble, Japanese companies provided financial loans to help Blue Mountain Coffee return to normal levels, thus ensuring the market. To thank Japan, Jamaica signed an agreement with Japan in 1972 to give shares and preemption rights to Japanese estates, and 90% of Blue Mountain coffee is sold to Japan when it matures.

So there is very little Blue Mountain coffee available in other countries, and the price is very high, but the situation has improved in recent years. In 2008, the production of Blue Mountain Coffee has returned to normal, as Japan has given priority to buying Blue Mountain Coffee for decades, which will make more coffee people in other countries feel the charm of Blue Mountain Coffee. So since 2008, it is not difficult for people to buy blue mountain coffee beans, but remember to recognize the certificates issued by the Jamaican government and coffee buckets when you buy them.

Qianjie Coffee chose the Blue Mountain coffee beans grown at Clifton Manor because the estate, the oldest coffee farm in the Blue Mountains, began growing and producing coffee beans around 1750. Qianjie often said that the higher the altitude of coffee is planted, the more refined the flavor will be. Although coffee above 666m can be given the title of Blue Mountain Coffee, good coffee always needs higher altitude to give "soul".

The coffee growing area of Clifton Manor is located at 1310m, and the high altitude gives the planting area plenty of sunshine and mild clouds in the afternoon, as well as mountain shade and mineral-rich soil, providing a great growing environment for coffee trees, and the flavor of coffee will naturally be improved. The Tropical Rain Forest Alliance is a worldwide non-governmental organization (NGO) established in New York in 1987. Aiming at the traditional agricultural law to prevent excessive development, on the one hand, to protect the natural ecology, but also to maintain the farm life of fine farms, the Tropical Rain Forest Alliance protects the ecosystem and its dependent human beings and wildlife by changing the methods of land use, commercial behavior, and consumer behavior. And achieve the preservation of biodiversity and provide sustainable development.

The reason why Blue Mountain Coffee is loved by so many generations of coffee is that the flavor of Blue Mountain Coffee is very balanced, mellow and solid. In order to reflect the mellow and balanced flavor of Blue Mountain Coffee, Qianjie Coffee roasters will use medium-deep roasting. After you place an order on Taobao, you will issue Blue Mountain coffee beans within 5 days after roasting. However, the changes in the structure of coffee beans during roasting will cause a large amount of carbon dioxide in the coffee beans, which will affect the uniform extraction during brewing, so when we receive the coffee beans, we can drink them in a cool and dry place. The original package is sealed and kept for 5-6 days after the baking date, and then brewed after some carbon dioxide is discharged from the one-way exhaust valve. The flavor will be better.

Blue Mountain Coffee brewing parameters recommended: 88C water temperature, 1:15 powder-to-water ratio, 15g powder weight, grinding degree (standard sieve 20 pass rate 7075%).

Blue Mountain coffee brewing techniques suggest: use a tapered coffee filter cup with filter paper for brewing, as well as the use of three-stage water injection. The first stage is injected with 30 grams of water for steaming for 30 seconds, and the second stage is injected with about 125 grams of water, then wait for the coffee liquid to drop, and when it falls to half, the last section of water is injected to 225 grams, and then the extraction ends when all the coffee droplets lag behind. Generally, the total extraction time is about 2 minutes and 10 seconds.
