Our History It was the dawn of the 1990’s. Our family lived in Kingston: a metropolitan city, industrialized, modern yet surrounded by a lovely countryside. One particularly beautiful area is the Blue Mountains, a lush and misty place, full of mystique and wonder, and the perfect site for the growing and harvesting of coffee berries. …We found that in the heart of Kingston, many everyday habits of our early Jamaican lifestyle were disappearing, survived only as memories full of flavors and sweet aromas. Aromas like the ones that came from a mother’s kitchen…the sweet scent of fried plantain, ackee and saltfish, and best of all…the aroma of coffee…real Jamaica Blue Mountain® coffee. So I went to work… In 1994, along with the help of my dad, whose years years of expertise in manufacturing proved invaluable, we established our roastery - Coffee Roasters of Jamaica Limited, one of the ten Jamaican roasters recognized and licensed by the Jamaican Coffee Industry Board. With a commitment to bring coffee roasting back to traditionally high standards, I trained myself and team diligently to become experts in the craft of roasting and blending coffee beans. Today, our dedication is the same as it was then. Our blends come from typica arabica coffee beans, which are larger and produce a much higher quality of coffee. We produce 100% authentic Jamaica Blue Mountain® coffee, processed and roasted meticulously to the highest standards. The methods and processes used in industrialized coffee production have never been part of our approach. We roast our coffee in small gas fired roasters(A Probat and a Lilla) carefully supervised by our devoted workers. As a result, we offer a subtle and multi-layered taste to our coffee which is both interesting and complex. CRJ 100% authentic Blue Mountain® coffee is recognized all over the world for its full-bodied flavor and distinctive aroma. So this is where, for both work and pleasure, our Jamaican family at Coffee Roasters of Jamaica are forever cultivating our roasting techniques and our beloved traditions to keep you our customers satisfied.  |
