Jamaica Blue Mountain RSW Estate

The Jamaica Blue Mountain RSW estates is made up of the following three farms; Resource (10 acres), Sherwood Forest (65 acres, of which 95% is Geisha variety), and Whitfield Hall (40 acres). The farms range from 2500 to 5600 feet in elevation, with the main house, mill, patios, and warehouse dating back to 1797. With most of the equipment modernized, there still some original pulleys and drive wheels in place, preserving some of the farms history.

The RSW estates are dedicated to producing top-quality coffees, with all coffee being washed and pulped the day it is picked. Classically wet fermented in a tank, then demucilaged before washing. The coffee is partially dried on African styled cloth beds with room temperature air driven through at 400 cubic feet per minute. The coffee is quickly and evenly brought down from 57% to 30% moisture content in about 24 hours. Followed by approximately 5-8 days on the patio, raked daily and covered at night, until it reaches 11.5% moisture content. It is then bagged and stored for about 8 weeks in climate controlled storage rooms nestled in the side of the mountain. Lastly the coffee is screen sorted, sorted on a gravity table, run twice through an electro-sorting machine and finally hand sorted by a highly experienced team of local ladies, all to create a near perfect graded coffee.

The flavor is everything you would expect from a quality JBM coffee, bold smooth and sweetly satisfying. Deep-rich aroma with richly smooth flavor followed by a clean velvety finish. Roast just to second crack or slightly under for optimum flavor.
