Why is Blue Mountain Coffee so delicious?

Blue Mountain Coffee is the best coffee in the world. Located in the east of Jamaica, the Blue Mountains are named after being surrounded by the Caribbean Sea. On a sunny day, the sun shines directly on the blue sea, and the peaks reflect the bright blue light of the sea. The highest peak of Blue Mountain is 2256 meters above sea level, which is the highest peak in the Caribbean and a famous tourist attraction. Located in the coffee belt, the volcanic soil is fertile, the air is fresh, pollution-free, the climate is humid, foggy and rainy all the year round (average precipitation 1980 mm, the temperature is about 27 degrees). This climate has created the world-famous Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee and the highest price coffee in the world. . This kind of coffee has all the characteristics of good coffee. It is not only rich and mellow in taste, but also has no bitterness at all. It has only a moderate and perfect sour taste, because the sweet, sour and bitter tastes of coffee are perfectly combined. Generally, it is a single product to drink, but due to the small output and extremely expensive price, coffee with similar taste is generally brewed in the market.

The "secret" of why Blue Mountain Coffee tastes pure: Their coffee trees all grow on rugged slopes, and the picking process is very difficult, which is beyond the competence of local skilled female workers. It is very important to choose the right mature coffee beans when picking. Immature or mature coffee beans will affect the quality of coffee. The picked coffee beans should be shelled on the same day and then allowed to ferment 12- 18 hours. After that, the coffee beans are washed and screened. The next step is drying in the sun, which must be carried out on cement floor or thick blanket until the humidity of coffee beans drops to 12%- 14%. Then put it in a special warehouse for storage. Take it out and bake it when necessary, and then grind it into powder. These procedures must be strictly controlled, otherwise, the quality of coffee will be affected.
