Island Blue - 100% Jamaica Blue Mountain Whole Beans Coffee (16oz)

Due to my lifestyle and my occupation, I drink more coffee than water. I've tried everything in the stores, and have had mixed experiences. My dad kept going on and on about Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee, so I decided to give it a shot. Ordered one bag in January, and it was good enough to warrant me ordering another back this month. Expensive, but you get what you pay for. It isn't bitter, very smooth and clean. Excellent kick, too. I just wish I had enough on-hand to have a pot of it ready every day. DEFINITELY ordering more in the future, of this brand specifically.

I have been drinking Blue Mountain Coffee off and on for the last 5 years, switching it with Kona (I am a true coffee snob...). After the local coffee shop here decided not to carry Blue Mtn anymore- I decided to give this a try- I was not disappointed at all. This coffee is true Blue mountain, tastes as good if not better than the fresh roasted coffee from my local roaster, and gives that extra jolt of caffeine I have come to love from this premium bean.

This is probably one of the smoothest coffee's I have had the pleasure to drink. The only problem (in my opinion) is the flavor. I love dark/strong flavored coffee and even with my grinder set to fine ground, I still lack the strong flavor that I love. It might be because of the equipment that I use - where I can only get but so much coffee in the container. I use the Keurig B200 coffee maker (along with the my K cup dispenser filled to the max and packed), along with the Breville BCG800XL grinder. Again - smooth coffee with no bitterness but lacks the flavor.

This is my favorite coffee. I thought coffee was coffee until I tried Blue Mountain. I thought it was just because everything is better on vacation, but it didn't disappoint at home. Made in a french press, it's smooth and doesn't even need cream or sugar (coming from a PSL lover, that's really saying something!) I normally don't drink coffee because it upsets my stomach, but I can drink this freely. I tried Jamaican High Mountain coffee (don't waste your money), and can't wait until I use it up and can buy my Blue Mountain again!!!!

I bought this for my husband for our anniversary. He is a coffee connaisseur seriously. He loves it. I personally do not drink coffee on a regular basis; however even I was impressed by the taste. It was a lot smoother than I thought. Shipment was fast and easy. I got in just in time for our anniversary. I would highly make another purchase of this coffee.

I got this coffee for my birthday it absolutely did not taste like Jamaican coffee. The beans are medium to light brown not a dark black, the coffee is not smooth and there is barely any aroma at all. I have to say I was disappointed with this purchase. My brother recently went to Jamaica and brought me back a blended Jamaican coffee sold by the locals that was much better looking and tasting than this one.

I've tried a few others from Jamaica... All claiming to be from acidic blue mountains. But quite honestly the closest I've had too sitting on the beach sipping that first cup and fell in love. The only thing that's missing, is the fresh Jamaican air. 😊

My wife tried Blue Mountain coffee while on the island and loved it. Have been looking for a good way to get that for her and found this on Amazon. Came quickly and was exactly the taste she was looking for. Have ordered twice and the product was timely and right.

j'ai vus un reportage sur ce café j'ai donc eu envie d'y gouter! très bon café mais chère pour 450 grammes! pas sûr d'en commander un autre a part si le prix baisse

I had heard good things about this coffee before trying for myself. I don’t really like black coffee but this is so smooth nothing else is needed. Definitely a game changer when it comes to quality coffee

I've been meaning to try this legendary coffee for a long time now, so when I saw it available at a sizeable discount, I let my resistance slip and ordered a bag. When opened, the aroma wasn't quite as intense as I've experienced with other coffees; slightly nutty, perhaps. Upon grinding, a fruity chocolate flavour came to the fore. So to the cup... It's quite an unusual coffee in that there is very little bitter side to the experience - it's also extremely smooth on the tongue, with very delicate tones of toasty sweetness and floral nuttiness. Despite this lightness, it doesn't taste weak - there's no way this is a decaf (I had terrible insomnia the one time I drank it late at night). There's a great balance to the taste, with no aspect taking too much of the attention; this is a conservative coffee in a way - I was expecting to be blown away by it (considering how much more expensive it is than normal), but having had a few cups now, I see that what differentiates it from other coffee is (apart from the price) the *absence* of possible offensive factors such as bitterness, acidity or roughness; what you're left with is coffee with those veils lifted - a very delicate, sweet, complex and (above all), balanced experience. Inoffensive; safe for granny. Is it worth the money? Well, that depends upon how much money you have - I'm going to try a blind tasting out on a few friends this weekend, so we'll see if they can identify it (I don't think they will). I don't think the difference in taste merits the steep price, but it makes an interesting test for the taste buds. I still prefer Barbera Maghetto Double Ground Coffee Blend 500 g - sacrilege, eh?

We had a tour around the blue mountain when on holiday in Jamaica. I've never really been a coffee drinker most coffee I find leave a bitter after taste. The guide suggested we try a black coffee without sugar, so we watch him prepare one and sat down with another couple to drink while at taking about coffee and cricket. This is the second time we have brought blue mountain coffee since our holiday, yes it's expensive compared to supermarket coffee but in my little world it's worth it. I still only drink coffee occasionally, maybe once or twice a week. The best advice I can give, was given to us by the guide is when you open the bag is to only use the amount of beans required to your coffee and leave the remainder in the pack then place in a sealed container and leave in the fridge. We found it keeps it's favour etc, our previous bag lasted roundabout 7 months.

I’ve had blue mountain coffee in the past and this is not what I was expecting at all! Thoroughly disappointed, save yourself the money and don’t buy this. Bought as a gift and while he was grateful because he knows blue mountain and how much it costs, I tried the coffee and it’s super Smokey, just tastes like ash, nothing like the authentic blue mountain coffee I’ve tried before! No undertones, just smoke and ash flavour.
