Blue Mountain coffee, even if you have never drunk coffee, is familiar, and it is not too much to call it the most famous coffee in the world. But many people know about Jamaica Blue Mountains, but few are familiar with them.

Jamaica Blue Mountain is a special regional product, only rich in the Blue Mountains of Jamaica, a Central American island country. Just like Hangzhou Longjing tea, only the tea leaves on the mountains of Longjing Village beside West Lake are authentic Longjing tea. According to the quality theory of agricultural products, the initial judgment of coffee beans quality in coffee producing countries is also the same. Mainly: varieties, growth environment and treatment methods.

Jamaica Island is located in the coffee belt of the Northern Hemisphere. The Blue Mountain Range is located in the east of Jamaica. It is surrounded by the beautiful Caribbean Sea. The highest peak is 2256 meters above sea level. It has fertile volcanic soil. The air is fresh and there is no pollution. The climate is humid. It is foggy and rainy all year round (the average precipitation is 1980 mm and the temperature is about 27 degrees). The unique geographical environment provides a superior growth environment for Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee.

Blue Mountains is located in eastern Jamaica, spanning 45 km, 20 km wide and reaching a maximum altitude of 2260 meters. It is the highest mountain in the Caribbean. Blue Mountains cover fertile soil with excellent drainage, ideal for coffee cultivation. Mavis Bank is located in the Legal Blue Mountains District of Jamaica and is one of Jamaica's government-certified green bean processing plants, about 10 miles northeast of Kingston, the capital city, and has been operated by the Munn Family since 1885.

Originally planted and processed by the Munn family in Strawberry Hill, west of the Blue Mountains, the modern Mavis Bank processing plant was founded by Victor Munn in 1920 and later taken over by Victor's nephew, Keble Munn. Keble is not only an agricultural operator, but also Jamaica's first certified cup tester. Mavis Bank is now the largest coffee collection site in Jamaica. To ensure coffee quality, the processing plant collects green beans from single farms or small farmers in specific regions of the Blue Mountains. The coffee growing and processing site is located in a mountainous area with an average height of 1600 to 900 meters. Sufficient altitude, warm afternoon mist, sufficient sunshine and mineral-rich planting soil provide good growth conditions for coffee trees and prolong the ripening of coffee cherries.
