Introduction to Napoleon and St. Helena Coffee

Napoleon, an outstanding French military strategist, can be called the most romantic and sad figure in the history of coffee. His brandy private coffee and the cylindrical Turkish bean grinder he carries with him are all rumors. Although he was a figure from the middle of the 18th century to the early 19th century, God began to find the most romantic and sad place for him at the beginning of the 16th century-St. Helena. (it covers an area of 425 square kilometers, 2900 kilometers from Brazil and 1900 kilometers from the African continent)

If Napoleon died battlefield or was called by the Lord in Paris, St. Helena would surely bury the torrent of history forever and never be known. However, God deliberately arranged for Napoleon to be imprisoned and died of illness on St. Helena to let the world know that isolated islands in the deep South Atlantic also produce rare coffee. Sure enough, after Napoleon died in 1821, the delicacy of St. Helena coffee spread like wildfire, and it is still one of the most expensive manor coffee in the world (St. Helena produces only 2-12 tons of raw beans a year, which is rarer than 700-1000 tons in the Blue Mountains of Jamaica. St. Helena coffee costs $55 per pound, which is more expensive than the Blue Mountains.
