Introduction to high-quality Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee flavor manor

In 1670, according to the Madrid Treaty, Spain formally ceded Jamaica and other places to Britain, and the British immediately used the island of Jamaica as a base for their acts of piracy. Before the earthquake destroyed the port of Loire in 1692, it once became the "capital" of Caribbean pirates. Since then, the British built Kingston and gradually built it into the central city of Jamaica.

In the 150 years after 1692, Jamaica became a world-famous producer of sugar, rum and coffee. [4] in order to maintain a large number of plantations, the Royal Africa Company was established in England in 1672.

After 1865, after another large-scale uprising, Britain declared Jamaica a colony under direct jurisdiction in 1866. At the end of the 19th century, the sugar industry in Jamaica gradually declined and was replaced by banana farming. In 1872, Kingston officially became the capital of Jamaica.

In the decades after 1872, Jamaica's economy gradually prospered, but its social and cultural development was always suppressed by the colonial authorities. Especially during the Great Depression, all walks of life in Jamaica were very dissatisfied with the depressed social situation. In 1938, workers in Jamaica revolted. After that, the colonial authorities were forced to grant local autonomy. In 1944, universal suffrage was first held in Jamaica.

In 1958, Jamaica joined the Union of the West Indies, but in 1961, voters rejected the Union Treaty, which led to Jamaica's withdrawal.

On August 6, 1962, Jamaica declared its independence and joined the Commonwealth after its independence.

On October 23, 2011, Andrew Holnis, the youngest prime minister in Jamaican history, was sworn in in Kingston, Jamaica.

There are three varieties of coffee in Jamaica:

(Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee), 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.

(Jamaica High Mountain Supreme Coffee Beans) 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.

(Jamaica Prime Coffee Beans). 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 John Crow,St.John's Peak,Mossman's Peak,High Peak,Blue Mountian Peak in the Blue Mountains.

From the above, we can understand the general production of Blue Mountain Coffee. It should be noted that 99.9% of the Blue Mountains that can be drunk in China are only planted near the Blue Mountains. Only coffee produced in 6000 hectares above 1600 meters above sea level can be called Blue Mountain, and the yield is always below 900t, according to the principle of 10% supply to the world outside Japan. This kind of coffee, which can only be consumed by 90 tons in the world every year, can be drunk in any cafe for dozens of yuan? the unique flavor of Blue Mountain coffee is related to the unique geographical location and climatic conditions of Blue Mountain. Blue Mountain is located in the coffee belt between 25 degrees north latitude and 25 degrees south latitude, with fertile new volcanic soil, fresh air, no pollution, rainy all the year round and great temperature difference between day and night. Most importantly, every afternoon, clouds cover the top of the mountain, which not only shades the coffee trees naturally, but also brings abundant water vapor, which makes the taste and aroma of Blue Mountain coffee outstanding.

Only coffee grown in the Blue Mountain area above 1800 meters above sea level can be called Blue Mountain Coffee. A coffee enthusiast whom the reporter knew in the United States was more "demanding". He insisted: "the coffee grown at an altitude of 2256 meters is Blue Mountain coffee." Coffee beans grown in the lower mountains of the island of Jamaica can only be named "Jamaican alpine coffee" because of their different qualities. In addition, the same coffee tree species, whether planted in Hawaii, Kenya, Papua New Guinea or anywhere else with a similar climate, cannot produce the flavor of blue mountain coffee beans.
