Qianjie-Blue Mountain Coffee introduction

Jamaica

The mountains of Yamaika run from east to west, and 80% of the country is mountainous, of which the highest peak is Blue Mountain Coffee. The Blue Mountain Coffee is welcomed by many coffee lovers in the world as the king of coffee. Many people do not know that Blue Mountain Coffee's hometown is located in Jamaica. Blue Mountain Coffee is one of the few coffee planted in the foothills of the world, and its output is already small, so it is often overwhelmed by the huge demand of the world. Because Blue Mountain Coffee is quite valuable, unlike other coffees, it needs to be carefully packed before it can be exported to other countries. By the way, almost 90% of Jamaica's total coffee exports are shipped to Japan, which has an increasingly amazing coffee consumption capacity.

In a steaming cup of Blue Mountain coffee, there is a balance between light acidity and just the right bitterness. Refreshing, gentle and smooth on the palate, with a hint of sweet flowers, coupled with aromas of nuts, cocoa, spices and even cream, all these rich feelings are concentrated in the cup in an amazing harmony.

It has been nearly three centuries since coffee bean vegetation was introduced into Jamaica in 1728. The humid, rainy, warm climate of Jamaica's Blue Mountains is suitable for coffee beans originating in Africa. The Blue Mountain Coffee brand can only be used for coffee beans produced in specific areas with an elevation of 910m-1700 m above sea level. However, in the mountains, planting and picking are extremely difficult and dangerous, so the production of pure blue mountain coffee is very small.

If you come to Jamaica now, you can take a bike ride in the Blue Mountains to experience the environment in which this rare variety of coffee grows, and listen to the tour guide explain the unique natural conditions of the Jamaican Blue Mountains and the knowledge of coffee cultivation. Or visit the 200-year-old coffee plantation with a panoramic view of Kingston from the courtyard. Finally, of course, there is a chance to taste an absolutely authentic cup of mellow coffee.

Blue Mountain Coffee: sour and sweet taste match very well, but also has a very unique flavor and aroma, not much need to mix to have a variety of flavor.

The variety of Blue Mountain Coffee is Iron pickup, which is a subvariety of Arabica and inherits the good genes of Arabica.

Knowledge expansion: the annual output of Blue Mountain Coffee is only 240 tons, and its price is relatively expensive.
