History Of
Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee
Jamaica
Blue Mountain is the rarest and most sought after coffee in the world.
Coffee was first introduced into Jamaica from the island of Hispaniola
in 1728. But it wasn't until the abolition of slavery on the British
territory in 1838 when former slaves in the Blue Mountains began the
cultivation of coffee. At the eastern end of the island of Jamaica
is a majestic range of hills known as the Blue Mountains.
At
elevations of up to 5,000 feet the terrain, the soil, the rainfall,
and the thick Blue Mountain mist combine to create the perfect conditions
for the cultivation of the World famous, most distinguished and
most delicious Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee.
Only
coffee grown in this precise geographic region is certified "100"
Jamaica Blue Mountain. Arabica Typica is the dominant variety with
almost 90% of the planted area. This is a low yielding variety,
but it produces the highest cup quality.
