Among the many famous coffee, the authentic Jamaican Blue Mountain caffeine gets its name from the Blue Mountain area above 3000 meters above sea level. it has all the characteristics of coffee and has the best harmony of three perfect flavors (sweet, sour and bitter). The taste is mellow, rich and moderate, and it is the most famous and expensive coffee variety in the world. It has been called "the best coffee" and buyers flock to it.

The production of Blue Mountain coffee is limited, only about 40,000 kilograms per year. For a long time, its preemptive right has been won by the deep-pocketed Japan. 90% of the Blue Mountain coffee is sold to Japan, while other countries can only share the remaining 10%. Therefore, many of the Blue Mountain coffee around the world are only similar or counterfeit products. Authentic Blue Mountain coffee, regardless of price, is always in short supply.

Due to the low production, the rare "smart cat coffee" costs as much as $200 for 50 grams, while 50 grams can only be made into four or five cups, worth $50 each, the price of gold.
