New Season Blue Mountain Coffee

This new season Blue Mountain coffee comes from [Shanbei International] - one of the few trading companies in China that has obtained the import rights for Jamaica CIB-certified Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee beans. Not all Jamaican coffee can be called Blue Mountain; only coffee grown in specific Blue Mountain regions at high altitudes will have that velvety texture and balance. When we cupped this Blue Mountain G1 from Stony Manor Estate, we detected distinct blueberry notes, which was indeed a surprise. Therefore, we've also adjusted the roast level accordingly.

FrontStreet Coffee's Pour-over Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee Parameters

Daily Brewing

Dripper Choice: V60, Kalita wave, or KONO are all suitable

Parameters: 15g coffee, water temperature 90°C, grind size 3.5, water-to-coffee ratio close to 1:15, total time around 2:00

Technique: Bloom with 25-30g water for 30s; first pour to 120g then stop; use vertical water flow, small stream with slow circular motion; second pour to 225g, with slightly faster water flow and circular speed to reduce fine particles clogging the filter, which would cause over-extraction.

Siphon: Grind size 4, water temperature 89°C

AeroPress: Grind size 2.5, water temperature 88°C

Authentic Blue Mountain Coffee Flavor Description

The taste is exceptionally clean, and it stands as one of the world's sweetest coffees. This flavor has been described by Jim Reynolds at Peet's Coffee and Tea: "The finest examples of Jamaica's Blue Mountain coffee have an aromatic, smooth richness that gives me a sense of gem-like quality. It's as precious as a gemstone."

He continues: "It's complex yet very mild, it's sweet, and it has a very strong body. You must taste it to understand what I'm talking about." The unique growing conditions and meticulous care throughout all production processes have made Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee famous. It offers a rich, mellow flavor with perfect balance of coffee's sweet, acidic, and bitter notes - completely without bitterness, with only moderate and perfect acidity, and a lasting fruity finish.
