Brief introduction of Qianjie-Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee and Coffee Bean cultivation period

RSW 100% Jamaican Blue Mountain Manor Coffee is an abbreviation composed of three coffee estates: Resource, Sherwood Forest and Whitfield Hall, with the first letter of each estate, so RSW estate refers to the 100% Jamaican Blue Mountains produced in these three manor groups. Resource:Resource Manor is located in the Yallahs Valley in the Blue Mountains, with an elevation of 1200 meters, which is the westernest of RSW. It is about an hour and a half drive from the capital Kingston, along the road to the Blue Mountain producing area, you will first pass through Mavis Bank, then cross the Yallahs River, and then rise along the valley, just below the century-old cinchona tree medicinal botanical garden.

Cecil Langford, the owner of Resource, has operated this estate for more than 40 years. Over the years, the estate has been expanded from 10 acres to 30 acres. Previously, the coffee was treated by itself after harvest, but now it has been moved to Sherwood Factory for post-harvest treatment. Most of the coffee trees of Resource Manor are planted on the slopes of the northwest of the mountains, irrigated by streams and rivers that flow all the year round to the north. The manor has four full-time farmers, from November to early May of the next year, is the harvest time. At this time, 60 local harvesters are needed to help with the harvest.

RSW all ripe coffee fruits will be sent to Sherwood after harvest, first visually check to remove sundries and some defective fruits, and peel the flesh within 12 hours of delivery, while there is a sugary sticky layer outside the pulp, which must be removed during treatment. when most coffee fruits are removed at this stage, a hard brush will be used to brush the pulp layer and mucus on the fruit surface. In fact, this time-saving treatment is similar to [semi-washing], while RSW uses [fermentation] to naturally make the sticky layer fall off! Without the aid of other equipment, after the fermentation is completed, the coffee is washed and the parchment coffee is dried in a clean cement floor. This period of sunlight is called "bar-be-ques".

Natural sun drying for a long time can indeed enhance the sweetness and flavor of beans. RSW Estates is 100% sun dried (sun exposure, no machine drying). Drying must be done until the moisture content of the bean is 11% to 13% and then move to 24.C constant temperature and humidity for 2-3 months, so that the flavor will be better!

Small batches of low-temperature shelling, polishing and grading will be carried out at the exit, and when these actions are completed, the beans will be carefully picked out manually: defective beans, broken beans, different color beans and bad flavor beans will all be removed carefully. Each manual worker can pick only 75 pounds a day. After the manual picking of beans is completed, the raw beans are moved back to a constant temperature and humidity environment for storage. Before export, the Jamaican Coffee Agency will send staff to test, pass the test, then put them into oak barrels in Sherwood factory, and then export them by air.

Coffee and bean cultivation period

Bean cultivation means that cooked beans are roasted and stored in sealed coffee bags to release carbon dioxide and some other gases from the roasting process, and stabilize the various substances inside the beans through several days of rest. Otherwise the coffee that is too fresh will taste dry.

Knowledge expansion: the Jamaican Coffee Industry Committee was established by the Government of Jamaica in 1950 to develop quality standards for Jamaican coffee and to monitor the implementation of quality standards, and to issue special official seals for exported raw and roasted coffee, it is the highest-level national coffee institution in the world.
