Flavour notes

About this coffee

Origin

Jamaica’s Blue Mountains – steep slopes, volcanic soils, and island mists – are ideal Arabica terroir. This controlled designation of origin ships their treasured beans in iconic handmade wood barrels.

The exotic woody and rich spice notes of this rare crop make

JAMAICA

BLUE MOUNTAIN worthy of the protected name.

Roasting

The treasured Jamaica Blue Mountain beans get a split roast. Both splits are darker roasts – it develops intensity while balancing the flavor.

The second split takes a little longer and that builds the coffee’s intensity without pushing the bitter note too far.
