What Makes Blue Mountain Coffee So Good?
I was wondering about Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee.
What is different in the way coffee is grown to make the Blue Mountains in Jamaica produce such good coffee? So I thought maybe you would like to know what I found.
The Blue Mountains are a range of mountains in Jamaica.
They cover the entire eastern portion of the island, a length of 28 miles and an average width of about 12 miles They are located between Kingston to the south and Port Antonio to the north.
They rise up to 7,500 ft, and are some of the highest mountains in the Caribbean.
The mountain climate of Jamaica is cool and misty with a high amount of rainfall.
The soil is rich volcanic soil and has excellent drainage.
This combination of climate and soil is ideal for coffee growing.
In 1730 coffee was introduced to Jamaica from Britain.
The Governor of Jamaica, imported Arabica seedlings from the Island of Martinique.
In 1950, the "Coffee Industry Board" was started to raise and maintain the quality of the coffee exported from Jamaica.
This step has enabled Jamaica's Blue Mountain Coffee to be at the top.
It is in the highest demand by coffee lovers around the world This is a special variety of coffee.
It is easily the most famous exotic coffee in the world.
It has been called the "Rolls Royce of all coffees".
It can easily be called "the world's best coffee".
It contains less caffeine than any other commercially grown species of coffee.
You might want to give it a try! Make sure that you are buying certified by the "Coffee Industry Board" of Jamaica, who closely watches the growth and distribution of Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee.
Here are the regulations: To be certified as "Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee" it must be harvested at 3000-5500 ft.
To be certified as "Jamaica High Mountain coffee" it must be harvested at 1500-3000 ft.
To be certified as "Jamaica Supreme" or "Jamaica Low Mountain Coffee" it must be harvested at 1500 ft.
& under.
So, what makes this coffee so good is the work of the farmers, the processors and, of course, Mother Nature.
The time-consuming labor of the growers in planting, harvesting and processing this exotic coffee is truly amazing.
This smooth, full-bodied beverage has a mild, slightly sweet flavor with virtually no bitterness, and a wonderful aroma.
I just love this coffee! Try some today, you will be glad you did!
