Haiti, located in the western part of Hispaniola Island in the Lobi Sea, covers an area of about 27800 square kilometers. "Haiti" means "mountainous country" in the indigenous language. This mountainous country is also the most disaster-prone region on earth, it has been in the midst of war and poverty, and it is one of the most material-poor countries in the world. Even so, it can't stop this country from having the gift of nature. The biggest export of Haiti, which occupies 2 to 3 of the western island of Hispaniola, is coffee.

In 1725, Haiti officially began to grow coffee in the north, and now produces and exports about 600000 bags of coffee a year. Unfortunately, even in the final selection stage, Haiti does not distinguish between the quality of coffee beans on each farm. Coffee beans are mixed with the good and the bad. General Haitian coffee, mainly exported to European countries, led by France, is used to make blended coffee.

However, there is another part of the coffee, which is carefully planted in the high mountains and then refined. Most of these coffees are called "SHG Coffee" (meaning coffee grown above 1600 meters above sea level), and some are called "Port-au-Prince Coffee" and "Blue Haitian Coffee". These coffees are famous and expensive.

Most of the coffee produced in Haiti is grown in a purely natural state, which is not intentional but the result of material shortages because coffee farmers are too poor to buy fungicides, insecticides and fertilizers. On the contrary, this makes the coffee produced in Haiti the most natural and pollution-free. Haitian coffee is full-grained, rich in flavor, medium to low acidity and mild in taste. In Japan, Haitian coffee is often mixed with Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee, which makes Blue Mountain Coffee more full-bodied and is called Blue Mountain's good companion.
