Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee?

[diztek]

Quick question, Ive read several post regarding the JBM Coffee being around $25-30 a pound at the gift shop or at the airport. My question is, is that for the "blend" coffee?

No that is for the 100% Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee certified by the Coffee Industry Board of Jamaica.

The 'blend' coffee is less expensive. It is usually called High Mountain Coffee. It can also be found at the shops in town, resort or airport. We've found the best pricing for coffee at the shops in town.

Hi - if you are in Ocho Rios and go to Taj Mahal, the store in the middle sells it for $15/pound - pure blue mountain "jablum". You get this price if you buy several bags. (We usually buy about 10). It does not get any cheaper.

When we have gone on the shopping trip scheduled by the resort we have bought the coffee for $15 a pound.
