This is a special, limited release. Jamaican Blue Mountain unroasted coffee beans are barrel-shipped from Blue Mountain farms, and this variety won't be around for long!
JBM is truly a treat! Delicate, so don't overroast it and lose those sweet, complex undertones of chocolate and fruit. With perfectly balanced body and lovely aroma, it is creamy smooth at all temperatures, leaving a pleasant aftertaste. Indulge yourself.
Try before you stock up with a 1/2 pound sample!

I'm giving this coffee the highest marks. I found the coffee absolutely amazing. I was worried that the price was just for a limited supply coffee on the market. My wife treated me to this for my birthday and I now know that this is some truly great coffee. I roasted it just a few seconds into the second crack and rested it two days. Then I brewed it in an old pour over comet drip pot and it yielded such a wonderful cup that I could not believe it. Very oily in the cup with wonderful nuttiness and a floral bouquet that was like a tropic paradise. I roasted it lighter also. Good, but I highly recommend a full city+ roast(amazing!!) For espresso geeks( I am Silvia+Rocky) This absolutely was the best shot of espresso in my seven years as a coffee geek. I'm just sorry I can't afford this more often. Do it, you won't be sorry!

Just recieved and roasted to just before the second crack. I waited 24hrs before grinding and cupping. The taste was sweet, nutty and chocolaty along with being mild. I higly reccomend everyone to at least give this one a try.

The JBM I received is old and baggy, I can't even drink it. JBM is one of my favorite coffees. I tried roasting this coffee in twof my roasters and neither batch was good enough to drink. Having been home roasting for over 22 years now I have roasted quite a few JBM coffees and this is by far the worst I have ever tried. Sorry, but I honestly paid $45 a pound for two pounds of garbage beans. Never again from Coffee Bean Corral.

The coffee tastes great. The beans were gray in color and very dry.We thought the beans were going to be green and be more fresh. We are dissapointed with the product we recieved for the price we paid. We ordered three pounds and it wasn't cheap. Pictures and description on the website is unaccurate. Coffee tasted great but it was an old product unfortunately..

For me I’d give it 3.5 stars. If it wasn’t so expensive I’d give it 4 stars. I like it. It’s gives me a fantastic “pick-me-up” in the morning. However for the price I’d prefer it to be smoother. I roasted just to beginning of second crack. The beans were plump and beautiful. The aroma is fabulous. I had to bring the temperature up gradually as the beans tended to roast quick. Overall it’s good but given its price and reputation I expected better.

Its just ordinary coffee, not worth the price at all. I've roasted beans from all over the world and this has no special qualities.

it is a very nice and very smooth coffee my wife and I both enjoyed it, however like Kona which we like even more, this is more of a special occasion when it is on sale type of coffee.

This is a fine coffee but, I’m afraid, not worth the premium. Good aroma and mild flavor. I roasted it to one minute 30 seconds beyond first crack which occurred 16 minutes into the roasting on a Behmor roaster at P5 (up to 305 degrees.). Medium roast. It’s not the fault of the bean but the roaster does not allow visual check of the process so I cannot be sure when to stop the roast. But that’s the roaster’s problem and not the bean. In general, I would advise to get 5 pounds of something else at the same price as 1 pound of this good coffee.

Fantastic JBM. We are selling this as a pour over at our cafe. We roast to a finish temp of 430F just before SC. We allow a slow dry to FC in about 10 minutes and a final temp at about 15:30 minutes. It has a sweet and spicy aroma out of the roaster. It is well balanced and mild, medium bodied. While it may seem like middle of the road on acidity, body, balance...that is what is so wonderful. It has an initial nutty flavor with chocolates and spice notes. You may smell a tea fragrance or slight rootbeer essence as it cools in the cup. Very pleasant and worth the experience.

Lovely. Everything described and more. Roasted slowly just a few moments beyond first crack. Brewed pour over without paper filter. Let coffee cool somewhat before drinking. This would be my daily go to were it not for the price.

JBM is one of a kind. it's pricey so not the every day cup for most but dont deny yourself the opportunity to have a truly amazing cup of Joe! Paradise in a cup!I prefer a medium dark roast, just prior to the second crack!

This coffee seems to be one of the best to medium roast to bring out chocolate and caramel. I roast and end 6 batches between first and second crack and blend them. I have a drum roaster and use 300g each roast. I roast to temps instead of time. I have altered my roasting profile to get about 20 minutes between first and second crack.
