Jamaican Coffee

Is Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee the best coffee in the world?

Almost everyone who has heard of Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee knows that it is the most expensive coffee in the world, but not everyone knows why. Like Rolls-Royce cars and Stradivari violins (StradivariusViolin), when something gains the reputation of "the best in the world", that reputation tends to make it its own identity and become an eternal myth.

Jamaican Coffee-introduction

The best Blue Mountain Coffee is undoubtedly one of the best coffees available. Although the price can guarantee the supply of Blue Mountain coffee, it does not guarantee the best flavor of the coffee. It is also worth noting that the coffee is more expensive to drink than it looks. In order to taste its best flavor, you must put in more coffee beans than when drinking other coffee, otherwise the flavor will not live up to its name, so the real cost of reflecting the flavor is that it has to add 10% to 15% more coffee beans than the coffee whose price is second only to it.

It is said that the real Blue Mountain coffee is made from the best local raw coffee beans, which is the pleasure of tasters. Its flavor is rich, balanced, fruity and sour, and can meet people's various needs. In addition, the flavor of high-quality fresh Blue Mountain coffee is particularly long-lasting, as drinkers say-endless aftertaste.

It is necessary to take a closer look at the myth of Blue Mountain Coffee, because the image of the past is often inconsistent with the reality of today. In 1725, Sir SirNicholasLawes brought the first Blue Mountain Coffee species from Martinique to Jamaica and planted them in the St.Andrew area. Today, St. Andrew is still one of the three major producing areas of Blue Mountain Coffee, while the other two are Portland and St..Thomas. In eight years, Jamaica exported more than 375 tons of pure coffee. In 1932, coffee production reached its peak and more than 15000 tons of coffee was harvested.

But by 1948, the quality of coffee had declined and Canadian buyers refused to renew their contracts, so the Jamaican government set up the Coffee Industry Committee to save the fate of top coffee. By 1969, the situation had improved because the use of Japanese loans had improved the quality of production, thus ensuring the market. Even in 1969, Japanese coffee drinkers were willing to pay insurance for the coffee, but now it has reached the point of fanaticism.

By 1981, about 1500 hectares of land in Jamaica had been reclaimed for coffee cultivation, followed by investment in another 6000 hectares of coffee land. In fact, today's Blue Mountain area is a small area with a planting area of only 6000 hectares, and not all coffee marked "Blue Mountain" can be grown there. Another 12000 hectares of land is used to grow two other types of coffee (non-Blue Mountain Coffee): Alpine Top Coffee (HighMountainSupreme) and Jamaican Coffee (PrimeWashedJamaican).

There are three varieties of coffee in Jamaica:

Blue Mountain Coffee

(JamaicaBlueMountainCoffee), of which Blue Mountain Coffee and Alpine Coffee are each divided into four grades. From top to bottom in terms of quality, NO.1, NO.2, NO.3 and PB,PB are round beans. According to CIB standards, only coffee grown above 666m above sea level is called Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee.

Alpine coffee

(JamaicaHighMountainSupremeCoffeeBeans) the coffee produced in the Blue Mountain area of Jamaica is called Alpine Coffee, which is second only to Blue Mountain Coffee in quality, and is called the brother breed of Blue Mountain Coffee by industry insiders. Jamaica Blue Mountain caffeine produces very little, so if you want to taste Jamaican flavor coffee, then Jamaican Alpine Coffee is your best choice.

Jamaican Coffee

(JamaicaPrimeCoffeeBeans). Coffee is grown outside the Blue Mountains and is called Jamaican coffee. It turns out that people in the coffee industry in China generally have a wrong understanding that only coffee grown in the Blue Mountains above 1800 meters above sea level can be called Blue Mountain Coffee. In fact, there is only one manor on the top of the Blue Mountains above 1800, that is, Amber, which is of Chinese descent. The owner of the manor is surnamed Lyn (Lin). Originally from Guangdong, China, the manor has a land area of only 30 hectares and its output is very small. Blue Mountain Coffee is mainly distributed in 5 mountainous areas such as JohnCrow,St.John'sPeak,Mossman'sPeak,HighPeak,BlueMountianPeak in the Blue Mountains.
