    That coffee you linked doesn't have the "seal", which all certified Blue Mountain coffee has. Not saying it isn't legit, but there are only 4-5 processors that are certified JBM, and I don't see any of their trademarks, or the seal.

    If my memory is correct and if Mrs Twyan is not a bull$hitter, they were the first company that won their independence (so to speak) and could grow, roast and sell. Before that they could only sell to the gov who blends everything. If you are a coffee person a tour of the farm and learning about their history and the history of coffee in JA in enlightening.

    Interesting, I'll check them out. Blue Mtn coffee really isn't even close to my favorite coffee (it's in the top five though), so I rarely splurge on it myself.

    their website states that they do

    This is a special promotion for our finest JBM from the highly regarded Wallenford Estate. 100% of this coffee will be exlusively from the Wallenford Estate.


    This is for 4 x 1lb Fresh Packs. Sealed immediately after roasting in the finest packaging with a one way degassing valve and a seal of authenticity. Keep some as from yourself and give some away as a gift.

    This is "The real McCoy". Masterly roasted in small batches as it's ordered to ensure optimum freshness. The roasting profile is a "City Roast". This is a deep shade of brown and the optimal roast for an origin coffee. This is not considered a dark roast. You taste the full origin qualities and characteristics of the coffee and not the roast itself.
