Introduction to Valenford Manor, the Old Blue Mountain Coffee Manor in Jamaica

When a British naval fleet arrived on the island of Jamaica in 1746, the fleet commander, the famous botanist Sir Matthew Forlan, inspected all kinds of plants on the island and bought a piece of land here, which is today's Valenford Coffee Manor. For nearly three hundred years since then, it has been growing the best Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee in the world.

The Blue Mountain, the national treasure of Jamaica

There is no doubt that the best Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee beans were born in Valenford Manor, and in fact another reason why the estate is admired by global coffee fans is its status as a national treasure.

Founded by Wallenford Manor, Wallenford Coffee Co., Ltd. is now an unlisted company wholly owned by the Jamaican government, in other words, the only "state-owned" status in many coffee estates in Jamaica. Only choose the best blue mountain coffee fruit for processing; the quality process control is particularly strict; the output is very limited. All these factors shape the image of Wallenford Manor as the "most stable and trustworthy coffee processing estate". Its production is designated as the highest level of Blue Mountain coffee, which is usually chosen by the royal aristocracy because of its high price.

The "Superior Quality" in the hearts of glutton

Why is Blue Mountain coffee so expensive? I'm afraid this will be a question in everyone's mind, and the answer can be found at Wallenford Manor. Their coffee trees are very difficult to pick on the rugged hillside, and they can't do it unless the local skilled women can't do it at all. when picking, the requirements for coffee fruits must be stringent, and the immature or fully ripe ones must be abandoned, otherwise the quality of the coffee will be affected. The picked coffee beans should be shelled on the same day, washed and screened after fermentation for 12 to 18 hours, and then dried naturally, specially stored and roasted accurately. There is no room for failure in every procedure! In the evaluation of all Jamaican Blue Mountain estates by coffee glutton all over the world, Wallenford has the best performance in management, stability, popularity and flavor, so it is known as "Superior Quality". In coffee, "absolute quality coffee is the main cash crop of Jamaica, this small beautiful island country in the Caribbean has a mountain range. On a clear day, it will be reflected by the azure sea water with a light blue, so it is called "Blue Mountain". The blue mountains are sunny and cloudy all the year round, and the unique environment makes the coffee grown here have a perfect balance of sweet, sour and bitter taste, so it has become the most famous top coffee in the world.

But not all coffee produced in Jamaica can be called Blue Mountain Coffee! Although the island is dotted with coffee plantations, only coffee grown above 2000 feet above sea level in the Blue Mountains, certified by the Jamaica Coffee Industry Council (Coffee Industry Board of Jamaica,CIB) in the administrative regions of St. Andrew, Portland, St. Thomas and St. Mary, is allowed to be called Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee. And Wallenford Manor is one of the oldest and best quality coffee growers, whether you know coffee or not, you must have heard of the name "Blue Mountain". You know that Jamaica's Blue Mountain Coffee is the most expensive and best coffee in the world. However, not everyone knows why. Like the violins made by Rolls-Royce and Stradivari, once something is crowned "the best in the world", reputation will naturally steal the limelight, so that people often ignore the content of it.
