Introduction of St. Thomas producing area in Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee growing area with favorable planting conditions

The real Blue Mountain Coffee is one of the most advantageous coffee growing conditions in the world. Jamaica's weather, address structure and topography provide a unique ideal place. The ridge across Jamaica extends to the east of the island, and the Blue Mountains are more than 2100 meters high. The cool weather, foggy weather and frequent rain reconcile the fertile land of Rain Water, where people use mixed planting to grow coffee next to banana and pear trees on terraces.

Some small estates also grow Blue Mountain Coffee, such as Wallenford Manor, Silver Mountain Manor and Martinez's Atlanta Manor, which are also small-scale plantations, many of which are small landowners whose families have been working on this land for two centuries. The coffee industry in Jamaica is facing a series of problems, such as the influence of the whirlwind, the increase of labor costs and the difficulty of mechanized terraced fields. It is difficult to rationalize planting on many small estates and farms.

However, Blue Mountain Coffee is a coffee retailer that values credibility and keeps some coffee in stock anyway. A leading British retailer said: regardless of the price, he will continue to sell Blue Mountain coffee throughout the year because he has many customers who only recognize "Blue Mountain" coffee.

Now, 90% of the post-harvest Blue Mountain coffee is bought by the Japanese. In 1992, Jamaica sold 688 tons of Blue Mountain coffee to Japan, 75 tons to the United States and 59 tons to Britain. Now that the rest of the world can only get 10% of the output of Blue Mountain coffee, regardless of the price, blue mountain coffee is always in short supply. In the UK, Langford Brothers has been the only supplier for many years. Later, the Edmunds Group also received a supply from Salda Food Company of Jamaica.
