The Worlds's Finest: Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee by Norma Benghiat
Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee is known the world over as one of the most distinguished and delicious coffees. Brimming with a robust aroma and delicate flavour, this coffee is a globally protected certification mark, so that only coffee certified by the Coffee Industry Board of Jamaica can be labelled Jamaica Blue Mountain (R). Named for the region in which it is grown, coffee from Jamaica's Blue Mountain range, rising to over 7,000 feet above sea level, is the result of the perfect combination of terrain, altitude, soil and rainfall. In The World's Finest, Norma Benghiat traces the early history of coffee and its journey to the Caribbean. The growing and harvesting techniques are covered as are the plantation houses unique to the island home of Jamaica Blue Mountain (R) coffee. Filled with lavish images depicting the history of coffee and the coffee process in Jamaica and sumptuous photographs of coffee drinks, desserts and even main courses, you will be inspired to seek out this brew to confirm for yourself that it is indeed the world's finest.
