Qianjie-introduction of Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee recommended by hand Coffee Bean Brand

Blue Mountain Coffee is very important to the Jamaican economy and the coffee itself needs to be inspected and certified by the Coffee Committee before it can be marked as the Blue Mountain name.

Traditionally, only coffee grown between 910m (3000 ft) and 1700 m (5500 ft) above sea level can be called the Jamaican Blue Mountains. Coffee grown between 460m (1500 ft) and 910m (3000 ft) above sea level is called Jamaican high mountain, while coffee grown below 460m (1500 ft) is called Jamaican supreme or Jamaican low mountain. (all land above 1700 meters (5500 feet) above sea level in Jamaica is a forest reserve, so coffee is not grown there. )

The average Jamaican farmer has 80-175 coffee trees and collects their coffee berries in a box (60 pounds) and sells them to processing plants. A 60-pound box of coffee berries will produce about 12 pounds of exportable coffee beans.

Mavis Bank is another best-known name in Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee. Mavis Bank is a privately owned coffee estate and factory (formerly owned by the government) located about 10 miles north of the capital and is one of the major employers in the region. Mavis Bank handles coffee berries picked by about 6000 farmers, which is equivalent to the amount of coffee berries picked by 2 gamblers and 3 farmers in China.

Today, Jamaica's annual production of Blue Mountain coffee is still low, and the country's minister of industry, commerce, agriculture and fisheries has begun to encourage farmers to expand coffee production beyond the Blue Mountains, in order to expand the country's commercialization. After all, 80% of Blue Mountain coffee is now sold to Japan, only a small amount is circulated in other markets.

Low output and low circulation, it is really hard to get a bean, in order to drink Blue Mountain coffee, people began to use the blending method to imitate the flavor of Blue Mountain, in order to taste the rare and precious charming taste. The taste of Blue Mountain Coffee is balanced, with a balance of sour, sweet and bitter, with soft acidity, high sweetness, medium mellowness and various flavors.
