Parlin New Jersey, February 26, 2005 American’s have come to accept high
prices charged by premium coffee houses, up to $2 a cup,
for just “Good Coffee.” Often those consumers are not
aware that they can enjoy what has been called the world’s
best coffee, Jamaica
Blue Mountain Gourmet Coffee, for less than 50 cents
per cup when brewed at home.
American coffee lovers who are sometimes put off by prices above $30 per pound
in the U.S. for Jamaican
Blue Mountain Gourmet Coffee don’t realize that there
are over 35 standard cups of coffee to a half-pound bag.
Compared to many premium coffee bar prices, that makes
the cost of each cup brewed at home cost less at about
50 cents or so per cup for this recognized premium brew
that has been called the best coffee in the world. Coffee
houses routinely charge three to four times that for just
average coffee.
Coffee was first introduced to Jamaica by the English governor of the island, Sir Lewis Hawes in 1728, when it was still a British colony. The Queen of England still gets her coffee by mail order from Jamaica. The Japanese currently import 85% of all Blue Mountain coffee produced, according to the Jamaican government. Japanese prices sometimes approach as much as $62 per pound.
Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee is not a brand, but a recognized growing region between 2000 and 5000 feet elevation in the Blue Mountain region on the Island of Jamaica. The mountainous region above 5500 feet to the highest peak at 7400 feet elevation is maintained as a forest preserve. The growing conditions in the Blue Mountain range are considered ideal for coffee with cool misty conditions and incredibly rich soil with high rainfall and excellent drainage to contribute to the smoothest coffee produced anywhere in the world.
The Jamaica Coffee Industry Board was formed in 1950 to monitor and assure quality processing and production techniques and verify growing regions. No beans grown below 2000 feet elevation or outside the Blue Mountain range can be labeled Blue Mountain Coffee. The quality controls assure the highest standards of gourmet coffee production and guarantee the richest, most flavorful, low acidity coffee with a hint of sweetness and exquisite bold aroma. Most Jamaican coffee is grown by small farmers throughout the mountainous region.
