Introduction of Flavor and Taste Coffee beans in Coffee production area of Valenford Manor, Jamaica

In 1717, King Louis XV of France ordered coffee to be grown in Jamaica. In the mid-1920s, Nicholas, governor of Jamaica, ordered coffee to be grown in Jamaica. Nicholas Lawes imported Arabica seeds from Martinique and began planting them in St. Andrew. To this day, St. Andrew's is one of the top three growing regions for Blue Mountain coffee in Jamaica, along with Portland and St. Thomas. Within eight years, Jamaica exported more than 375 tons of pure coffee. Coffee production peaked in 1932, harvesting more than 15000 tons of coffee.

The Government of Jamaica established the Jamaica Coffee Industry Board in 1950 to establish quality standards for Jamaica coffee and oversee the implementation of quality standards to ensure the quality of Jamaica coffee. The Commission awards a special official seal to Jamaica's exports of green and roasted coffee and is the world's highest national coffee authority. At present, the origin of Blue Mountain Coffee can be represented by Mafis Embankment Central Factory (M.B.C.E.), Blue Mountain Coffee Cooperative Factory (M.H.C.C.T.), Portland Blue Mountain Coffee Cooperative Plant (P.X.X.S.H.), Coffee Industry Association (Wallenford), Coffee Industry Association (St. John's Peak) and Blue (J.A.S.) 6 kinds of logo.

By 1969, the situation had improved, as Japanese loans had improved the quality of production and thus secured the market. By now, the coffee has reached the point of being fanatically loved.

By 1981, about 1500 hectares of land in Jamaica had been cleared for coffee, followed by investment in another 6000 hectares. In fact, today's Blue Mountain region is a small area of only 6000 hectares, and it is impossible that all the coffee labeled "Blue Mountain" is grown there. Another 12, 000 hectares are devoted to growing two other types of coffee: alpine premium coffee and Jamaica premium coffee, the world-famous Blue Mountain coffee, grown in Jamaica's Blue Mountains. The Blue Mountains extend east of Jamaica and are the highest peaks in the Caribbean at 2256 meters above sea level. It is so famous because British soldiers who arrived in Jamaica saw the blue glow on the peaks and exclaimed,"Look, blue mountains! From then on, it was named Blue Mountain.

In fact, the Blue Mountains are because Jamaica is surrounded by the Caribbean Sea. Every sunny day, the brilliant sunlight shines on the sea, the mountains are refracted by the blue sea and shrouded in a faint blue atmosphere, ethereal.

Blue Mountain Coffee's unique flavor is related to its unique geographical location and climatic conditions. The Blue Mountain coffee belt lies between 25 degrees north and 25 degrees south. There is fertile new volcanic soil, fresh air, no pollution, rain all year round, large temperature difference between day and night. The most important thing is that every afternoon, clouds cover the whole mountain top, not only for coffee trees natural shade, but also can bring abundant moisture, so that Blue Mountain coffee taste and aroma outstanding.

Only coffee grown in the Blue Mountains above 2000 feet above sea level can be called Blue Mountain Coffee. Coffee beans grown in the lower mountains can only be called "Jamaica alpine coffee." The same coffee tree species, whether planted in Hawaii, Kenya, etc., where the climate is similar, will not produce the unique flavor of Blue Mountain coffee beans.
