Coffee production in Jamaica
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Coffee production in Jamaica began after 1728, when governor Sir Nicholas Lawes introduced the crop near Castleton, north of Kingston.[1] Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee is the special variety of coffee that is grown in the Blue Mountains region, which has the most conducive climate and topographical features; this variety is known for its scent and sweet taste.[2] Most of Jamaica's coffee production is grown for export.
