Established in 1923 and located 1km southwest of Mavis Bank is the largest coffee factory in Jamaica, producing Blue Mountain coffee sold under the ‘Jablum’ label. Ask the chief ‘cupper’ to demonstrate ‘cupping’ (tasting), the technique to identify quality coffee. You can tour the factory to see the coffee beans drying (in season) and being processed; call in advance. At the end of the ‘from the berry to the cup’ tour you can purchase roasted beans at bargain prices.
