FrontStreet Coffee - Introduction to Authentic Blue Mountain Coffee

You must have heard of Blue Mountain Coffee and Kopi Luwak. Their common characteristic is: they are very expensive! Perhaps you once had a Blue Mountain flavored coffee in a certain café, but you didn't know that there wasn't actually a single Blue Mountain coffee bean in it; or maybe you went to Indonesia, to Bali, and were guided by a tour guide to buy Kopi Luwak, but you didn't find it particularly delicious.

Blue Mountain Coffee

Blue Mountain Coffee was hailed as the world's best coffee for a long time. Blue Mountain is indeed the name of a mountain. It is located in the eastern part of Jamaica Island. Surrounded by the Caribbean Sea, on clear days when the sun shines directly on the azure sea surface, the mountain peak reflects the brilliant blue light of the seawater, as if the entire mountain is shrouded in a layer of light blue, hence it was named Blue Mountain.

Jamaica is an island nation located in the Caribbean Sea. Originally inhabited by indigenous people, it was successively a Spanish and British colony before gaining independence in 1962. It is now a member of the Commonwealth of Nations.

In addition to the world-famous Blue Mountain Coffee, what Jamaica is most noted for should be track and field sports. The famous flying man, Usain Bolt, is Jamaican.

Why is Blue Mountain Coffee so delicious?

The highest peak of Blue Mountain reaches an altitude of 2,256 meters, making it the highest peak in the Caribbean region. The unique flavor of Blue Mountain Coffee is related to its exceptional geographical location and climate conditions. The Blue Mountain coffee belt is located between 25 degrees north and south latitude. Here there is fertile new volcanic soil, fresh air without pollution, abundant rainfall throughout the year, and significant temperature differences between day and night. Most importantly, every afternoon, clouds and mist envelop the entire mountaintop, not only providing natural shade for the coffee trees but also bringing abundant moisture. Such exceptional climate makes the taste and aroma of Blue Mountain Coffee outstanding, creating a Blue Mountain Coffee with a very balanced acidity, sweetness, bitterness, and richness.

Why is Blue Mountain Coffee so expensive?

Blue Mountain Coffee is expensive, first and foremost, because of its excellent quality, possessing all the characteristics of good coffee. Secondly, it's because the production of Blue Mountain Coffee is very limited.

Not all coffee produced in the Blue Mountain region is genuine Blue Mountain Coffee. Only coffee grown at altitudes above 666 meters is called Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee; coffee produced below 666 meters in the Jamaica Blue Mountain region is called High Mountain Supreme Coffee Beans, which is also coffee with quality second only to Blue Mountain Coffee and is known by industry insiders as the brother variety of Blue Mountain Coffee. Coffee grown in regions outside the Blue Mountain range is called Jamaica Prime Coffee Beans.
