“BLACK CROW WHITE PIGEON”. EXTRAORDINARY COFFEE STORIES.
Chapter 16
The White Pigeon presents:
The alluring aromas of tamarind and oranges are joined by subtle notes of milk chocolate… This all-consuming, yet subtle sweetness cannot but leave a lasting impression.
Flying high over the Blue Mountains in the distant Jamaica, local coffee plants catch the eye: standing proudly in foggy plantations kept nice and damp by warm highland rain, these plants watch over the cherries as they mature slowly and eventually turn into exquisite coffee beans valued highly all over the globe. Thanks to unique climate conditions, these cherries take longer to ripen over here, which endows them with gorgeously subtle flavours and aromas. At the very heart of the mountains, in the region of Clydesdale, the fourth generation of the Sharp family toils away: these people own the “Clydesdale Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee” company, now loved by thousands of coffee connoisseurs. Over the years, the delicate taste of this coffee has turned into the stuff of legend…

This coffee is roasted by our partners in Lithuania, in one of the finest local roasteries.
These coffee beans are suited well for all brewing methods, be it espresso, filter, or infusing straight in a cup.
Specialty coffee includes only the world's best-rated varieties. Who rates it and how do they do that, you wonder? Well, the rating is in the hands of certified coffee tasters. They evaluate the quality of the coffee they're presented with based on the scale created by the Specialty Coffee Association (SCA). Four criteria are assessed: origin, the appearance of green beans, the aroma of the prepared brew, and its flavour characteristics. Only coffees that end up scoring somewhere between 80 and 100 points can be rightfully referred to as "specialty".
When using the washed process, beans are first separated from the cherries, then fermented and dried. Coffee processed in this manner acquires a particularly "clean" taste, which makes the dominant notes easier to identify. It's often fruitier too.
Authentic "Jamaica Blue Mountain" can only be found in one place: it's the Jamaican Blue Mountain region. The supply of this coffee is extremely limited, while the demand is huge because of the unique flavours and aromas these beans boast. It's particularly popular in Japan, where it quite literally flies off the shelves. That's why the price of this coffee is larger than that of a lot of others.
