Qianjie-Blue Mountain Coffee introduction

Together, the weather, geological structure and topography of Jamaica provide a unique ideal place. The designated Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee can only be grown in the Blue Mountain area, north-east of the island of Jamaica in Kingston.

Coffee grows on a mountain with a maximum height of 1800 meters (almost 6000 feet), which is already quite high for small-grain coffee, and the mountains are very uneven and the process of harvesting is very difficult (coffee harvesting is almost entirely female). The tree is mainly small grain "GeishaHighBred" type.

Seeds from these trees have been exported to other countries, such as Hawaii, Kenya, Papua New Guinea and elsewhere, but they are no longer able to create the flavor of Blue Mountain coffee beans anywhere.

Blue Mountain is located in the coffee belt, the highest peak 2256 meters above sea level, is the highest peak in the Caribbean. It has fertile volcanic soil, fresh air, no pollution, humid climate, abundant rainfall in the Blue Mountain area, year-round fog and low temperature, and the average temperature is about 20 ℃. All these constitute a good growing environment for Blue Mountain Coffee.

Coffee grown in this natural environment has the characteristics of all good coffee, not only full-bodied and mellow, but also because of the perfect combination of sweet, sour and bitter coffee, it has a little high-quality sour taste, and a very slight degree of bitterness is short and does not remain in the mouth. into the throat into a slightly sweet feeling, mellow throat rhyme is more unfinished. Such a unique flavor makes it one of the "gourmet coffee".

Must be certified by the Jamaica Coffee Industry Council (CIB) of the four statutory estates centralized procurement and processing can be called Blue Mountain.

100% of the world's pure Blue Mountain Coffee refers to a specific range of Blue Mountain Coffee in eastern Jamaica, and every step in its planting and processing has been subject to stringent standards of quality management by the Jamaica Coffee Industry Authority. can be proved to be "pure Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee".
