Among them, Blue Mountain Coffee and Alpine Coffee are each divided into two grades. In terms of quality, the order from top to bottom is NO.1 and NO.2. Normally, coffee grown at an altitude of 2200 meters is called Blue Mountain Coffee, and it needs to meet strict standards such as beans greater than 17 mesh and defect rate less than 3% before it can be called NO.1, so Blue Mountain Coffee is several times higher than other Jamaican coffee in the international market price.
