Unique sour and bitter Jamaican coffee flavor description taste characteristics introduction of fine coffee varieties in producing areas

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, could not produce the flavor of blue mountain coffee beans. The earliest coffee on the island of Jamaica, it came from Haiti in Latin America in 1728. By 1790, some coffee farmers among the refugees in exile from Haiti had settled in the Blue Mountains and brought coffee-growing technology here. In 1838, Jamaica abolished slavery and allowed liberated slaves to cultivate their own land. Free slaves moved to the mountains to grow coffee and exported it to England. Coffee has come to be known for its admiration by the British upper class. This kind of coffee is the Blue Mountain Coffee that fascinates coffee lovers all over the world today. The processing and production of Blue Mountain Coffee is also very sophisticated. Strict and detailed standards have been established for processing, baking and packaging, and there are regulations on what kind of organic fertilizers are needed during the growth period. All are harvested manually at harvest time. Jamaica is also the last country to still transport coffee in traditional wooden barrels.

Only through this series of stringent standards set by the Jamaican Coffee Industry Authority can coffee obtain a guarantee issued by the government and officially bear the name "Blue Mountain".

Americans don't drink Blue Mountain coffee.

The United States is a coffee-loving country, but the reporter did not find any "coffee beauty" in several major supermarket chains and Starbucks coffee shops in Houston. According to a waiter at a Starbucks coffee shop in downtown Houston, their coffee is mainly made from beans from Africa, Colombia or Indonesia. Blue Mountain Coffee is less on the market, and 90% of Blue Mountain Coffee is owned by the Japanese. At present, the "Blue Mountain style" coffee seen on the market does not contain a positive blue mountain coffee bean. One kind of "Jamaican mixed Blue Mountain" coffee is a mixture of 30% Blue Mountain Coffee and 70% of the best Jamaican Alpine Coffee. The above two kinds of coffee try to imitate the taste of Blue Mountain Coffee, but the processing and production of Blue Mountain Coffee is also very elegant. Strict and detailed standards have been established for processing, baking and packaging, and there are regulations on what kind of organic fertilizers are needed during the growth period. All are harvested manually at harvest time. Jamaica is also the last country to still transport coffee in traditional wooden barrels.
