5 Things You Didn't Know About Blue Mountain Coffee

    ATLANTA, GA, January 28, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- One of the most premium and sought-after coffee varieties in the world, Blue Mountain coffee, delivers a smooth, bold taste that coffee lovers savor and treasure. John Martinez, gourmet coffee expert and owner of J. Martinez & Company, shares interesting information about this coffee variety.

The Coffee Industry Board of Jamaica certifies the authenticity of all genuine Blue Mountain coffee. Most of the coffee produced in the region is exported to countries all over the world, with 80 percent of it going to Japan alone.

The Blue Mountain region on the island of Jamaica is the highest mountain in the Caribbean. The altitude (2,300 meters) along with the rich soil, cool climate, high rainfall and excellent drainage system create ideal conditions for growing this unique coffee variety.

Most of the genuine Blue Mountain coffee beans are grown, cultivated, harvested and processed by small farmers. There is a limited supply of Blue Mountain coffee available for consumption due to the limited geographical region where it can be grown as well as the strict standards imposed on its production by the coffee industry.

"For coffee lovers everywhere, drinking coffee is an experience to be savored. One lingers over a good cup of coffee, allowing its flavor and subtle notes to wash over the senses and excite the palate," says John Martinez, owner of J. Martinez & Company. "We strive to give our clients this experience with every gourmet coffee variety that we offer. It's all part of our commitment to them as well as to the product and industry that we love."
