Jamaica fine coffee bean flavor with persistent fruit flavor

Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee is harvested every year from June to November, usually by hand. After picking, it goes through the processes of washing, peeling, fermentation, dehydration, sun drying, shelling, and baking before you can get a ripe blue mountain coffee bean. In the process of raw bean processing, there are special personnel responsible for quality supervision in each step. For the very precious Blue Mountain Coffee, the packing and transportation mode adopted by the Jamaican government is also different. Unlike other coffees, Blue Mountain Coffee is not packed and transported in cloth bags at 60kg / bag, but in wooden barrels at the standard of 70kg / barrel. Jamaica is also the last country to still transport coffee in traditional wooden barrels. Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee beans must obtain a certificate of quality recognition issued by the Jamaican Coffee Industry Committee, which is the only body in Jamaica authorized to issue such a certificate. And each batch of export will have special quality supervision experts responsible for sampling, baking, grinding and brewing coffee, and finally make a judgment on whether to meet the standard. Because of its high price, Blue Mountain Coffee has a relatively fixed consumer group, and its market is mainly concentrated in Japan, followed by some European and American countries. Coffee beans are full in shape and slightly larger than ordinary beans. Its taste is very subtle, sour, fragrant, mellow, sweetness is uniform and strong, slightly bitter, harmonious taste, excellent flavor, suitable for individual coffee. It uses medium roasting (Medium Roast) to maximize the original taste of the coffee and enhance its aftertaste. In recent years, with the improvement of domestic coffee consumption, a large number of cafes have begun to supply "Blue Mountain Coffee", and its price is often only a fraction or a tenth of that of authentic Blue Mountain coffee. In 2005, under the guidance of Taiwan coffee manufacturers, a large number of domestic media began to pay attention to and report the authenticity of Blue Mountain Coffee. So far, authentic Blue Mountain coffee is still out of reach of most domestic consumers because of its price and supply in the mainland market. Blue Mountain Coffee can maintain its top status today, which is closely related to the local management policy. In 1932, Jamaica reduced the island's dependence on sugar exports through policies to encourage coffee production. Unlike most coffee-producing countries, the local government does not plant a large number of high-quality and poor-quality coffee in order to increase the output, but prefer to sacrifice the output to ensure the quality. Therefore, Jamaica is one of the countries with low coffee production in the world. Brazil, the world's largest coffee exporter, produces 30 million bags of coffee a year, while Blue Mountain produces only about 40, 000 bags a year.

One might ask, what is so special about Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee? The answer is everything about it. The real Blue Mountain Coffee is one of the most advantageous coffee growing conditions in the world. The weather, geological structure and topography of Jamaica provide a unique ideal place. The designated Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee can only be grown in the Blue Mountain area, north-east of the island of Jamaica in Kingston. Coffee grows on a mountain with a maximum height of 1800 meters (almost 6000 feet), which is already quite high for small-grain coffee, and the mountains are very uneven and the process of harvesting is very difficult (coffee harvesting is almost entirely female). The tree is mainly small grain "Geisha High Bred" type. Seeds from these trees have been exported to other countries, such as Hawaii, Kenya, Papua New Guinea and elsewhere, but they are no longer able to create the flavor of Blue Mountain coffee beans anywhere. In the steep and high-altitude mountains, careful farming and harvesting, all Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee is ground, tasted and distributed by the Jamaican Industry Association. The coffee in the cup tastes very clean, and it is one of the sweetest coffees in the world
