Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffea Diversa Reserve combines Geisha and Bourbon Rey varieties grown in the Blue Mountains at high elevation, roasted to emphasize sweetness and balance. The lot comes from Coffea Diversa Jamaica, harvested in St. Andrew parish above 4,000 feet, and is roasted to order. Flavor notes include milk chocolate, almond, and honeyed citrus, with rose florals and tropical nuances as the cup cools. This reserve represents rare, curated Jamaica origin with depth and refinement.
