Encountering Jamaica's National Treasure: Blue Mountain No.1 Coffee Beans
This rare and precious Jamaican national treasure Blue Mountain No.1 coffee bean (Wallenford), I think many people know about Blue Mountain coffee, but most have tasted "Southern Mountain style" coffee, which is very different from authentic Blue Mountain coffee in taste. The opportunity to handle and taste authentic Blue Mountain coffee beans is extremely rare. I'm very grateful that my friend was willing to share some with me, giving me this chance to savor it properly.
The True Value and Rarity of Blue Mountain Coffee
Speaking of these Blue Mountain coffee beans, many people might not find them particularly special - convenience store Blue Mountain flavored coffee is everywhere, nothing remarkable. Indeed, Blue Mountain flavored coffee is not rare at all, it's inexpensive and can be purchased everywhere. However, the authentic top-grade Blue Mountain is mostly controlled by Japanese companies, available in limited quantities and difficult to obtain. A 30kg bag of Blue Mountain green beans costs 100,000 NTD, and even roasted Blue Mountain coffee beans cost 2,000 NTD per pound. So you can imagine how much it costs to drink a cup of Blue Mountain coffee in a coffee shop. Therefore, having the opportunity to work with Blue Mountain green beans and roasting this time, I'm truly grateful to my friend's hospitality. After all, I didn't spend money but got to play with these beans, so saying thank you a few more times is truly necessary—
Appearance and Aroma Characteristics
In terms of appearance, Blue Mountain coffee beans are much larger than regular coffee beans. You can refer to the large beans on the right side of the picture below - that large coffee bean is the Blue Mountain coffee bean. The aroma of freshly roasted Blue Mountain coffee beans is somewhat subtle, but after several days of bean resting, the storage area will be filled with a light floral and fruity fragrance. When ground in the grinder, the air fills with an aroma reminiscent of roasted orange peel, quite enchanting. Just smelling the coffee powder's fragrance can make one imagine someone beckoning, urging you to come drink this tempting beverage.
Tasting Experience: The Unique Flavor Profile
The first time I drank Blue Mountain coffee, I used a siphon brewer to prepare and taste it. After finishing, I couldn't forget the unique aroma and that coffee flavor with its wine-like color. So after returning home, I decided to use espresso to more thoroughly bring out the potential flavors of the Blue Mountain coffee beans. This time, to properly savor it, I used a wine glass instead of traditional small espresso cups, aiming to preserve more coffee aroma for proper appreciation. Actually, this method is very similar to wine tasting - it allows the coffee's flavor to be more concentrated and makes it easier to detect different layers of coffee aroma.
The Exceptional Taste Characteristics
After smelling the coffee's aroma, I tilted the glass slightly like drinking wine, swirled it, and through the light, appreciated the color performance with its purple luster. Then I took a sip of coffee. Besides the aroma, what I immediately felt was no bitterness - completely not bitter and full of fruity acidity. This acidity is very smooth and gentle, somewhat similar to the sweet-tart sensation when eating dried cranberries - it's a charming fruit acidity close to the experience of eating fruit. Even when the coffee cools, it doesn't produce too much unacceptable astringency. Instead, it reveals a flavor somewhat like roselle tea. Therefore, this coffee with its outstanding acidity perfectly matches the preferences of those who enjoy acidic coffee, and it's no wonder Japanese companies compete to acquire it, creating its expensive market price.
