New York 100% Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee from the most exclusive origin in the world.
Only pure 100% Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee of which there are too many fake beans around make for the absolute pleasure and even cause the most renowned experts to go crazy about it. Genuine and original Jamaica Blue Mountain is among the highest grown coffees and is cultivated almost exclusively in small plantations such as Wallenford Estate, Silver Hill Estate or Atlanta Estate. The small amount that reaches the world market a year makes it the rarest and most expensive coffee in the world. However, as soon as you have had a cup of it you know why it is the Barolo amongst the coffees. Still today the raw coffee is shipped in wooden barrels, a clear sign for its distinctive nature. When Arabica was introduced in Jamaica coming from Martinique in the 18th century an unpredicted career began for the flawless Blue Mountain named after the mountain range. It fetches the highest price worldwide today. The Japanese buy 90% of the crop for top prices; other importers are the United States and Great Britain. In 1997 Jamaica exported about 1,800 tonnes. In contrast to other coffees, Jamaica Blue Mountain is shipped in wooden barrels of 70 kg each.
The medium roast which only the most experienced roasters carry out brings out the typical characteristics of this coffee, i.e. its richness and body. Apart from this, genuine Jamaica Blue Mountain is a particular pleasure for connoisseurs – mellow and full flavour, harmonious, fruity and sparkling acidity. The aroma is intense and strong, the flavour last unusually long and only unfolds when you drink it. Price per 1000g = € 119.60. |
