Qianjie-individual coffee beans recommended Jamaica-Clifton Blue Mountain 1 introduction

Blue Mountain Coffee is such a famous name all over the world that I have heard it even if I haven't drunk it. So the coffee brand recommended by Qianjie today is Blue Mountain No. 1 of Lifton Manor. This Blue Mountain Coffee is not only planted at a high altitude, but also a very famous manor!

Introduction to Clifton Manor

Clifton Hill is by far the oldest coffee producer in Jamaica, and only Clifton Farm in Jamaica has a "tropical rainforest" logo. It is recognized as a very high quality and world-famous producing area of Blue Mountain Coffee. Its elegant large house farm is located on an island in the Newcastle area on the eastern slope of Mount Catherine at an elevation of 4300 feet.

History.

As early as the mid-18th century (around 1750), Clifton Farm began to grow and produce coffee. According to a survey conducted by the Jamaica Institute in 1810, Robert Hamilton was the owner of the farm at that time. This map shows that Clifton Mountain is divided into two parts: 427 acres of pastures with 80 acres of coffee at the top, 111 acres of coffee and 264 acres of pastures at the foot of the mountain.

In 1872, Ms. Marianne Ross, a famous British painter and writer, visited Jamaica and spent five months on Clifton Hill. In her autobiography memories of Happy Life, she mentions the Clifton Hotel where she stayed: "the Clifton Hotel belongs to a local gentleman who has lost his wife. Instead of staying in a hotel, he rents it to different people every week, so that more people can experience the cold air at an altitude of 5000 feet and have the opportunity to walk among the best and oldest coffee plantations in Jamaica. "

General information about Clifton Farm:

Total area: 250 acres

Coffee acreage: 180 acres

Average altitude: 4300 ft (1 310.64 m)

Cup test features: a perfect and delicate balance of acidity, mellow thickness and aroma. Its acidity is bright and delicate. Its body is as smooth as velvet. Its aroma is slightly penetrating, accompanied by floral, spicy, and citric acid tones. There is a hint of cocoa after the entrance.

The high altitude and long history of Clifton Manor are also unique in terms of handling methods, giving Clifton not only the unique round and supple taste of Blue Mountain one, but also a slightly floral flavor and other rich taste. So that's why Clifton is popular and sells at a high price.

But Qianjie recommends this Blue Mountain not because of its high price, but because it is difficult to distinguish between Blue Mountain Coffee and Blue Mountain Coffee in the impression of many people, which is the main point that Qianjie wants to share. Blue Mountain Coffee is not really Blue Mountain Coffee, but by blending into a flavor similar to Blue Mountain Coffee.

Knowledge expansion: in 1953, the Jamaican government established the Jamaican Curry Industry (CIB) to regulate and guarantee the quality of Jamaican coffee.

Qianjie: Qianjie is not a coffee shop, but a coffee research center. We are happy to share the knowledge of coffee with you and study the brewing of coffee. We share unreservedly just to make more friends fall in love with coffee, and there will be three low-discount coffee activities every month, because Qianjie wants to let more friends drink the best coffee at the lowest price. This has been Qianjie's tenet for 6 years!
