Jamaican coffee is nutty, very low acid, high jolt stuff.
I had a pound left from last year and just made a pot.
If you haven't tried it, it's well worth a go. It's ridiculous expensive, but it's a nice treat.
 
if i remember correclty its rather expensive like 35-40/lbs? I've had it at some spa/resort places in taiwain and it was pretty good.
 
i cannot wait to go to Jamaica this january. This is one of the main things i will be picking up there. I love Kona Coffee and i am interested to taste the difference!

Don't forget to try an 8ball.
 
it all taste the same when u add sugar and milk.

thus the cheapest thing off the supermarket shelf (walmart brand?) will keep you awake as the most expensive thing.

Better coffee gives you less jitters (better caffeine), tastes better, doesn't cause you to have diarrhea, etc..

It's like beer and wine. You could argue that High Life gets you just as drunk as a Budlight.. But the bloated feelings you get from High Life often cut drinking short..

 
I haven't tried BM yet. A little out of my price range, and I'm not drinking too much coffee at the moment.

I do, however, highly enjoy Kona (I actually get it for $14/lb about half the time, pure Kona, not blend, because the person I wait to buy from at my coffee shop doesn't seem to know the difference between the pure and the blend). I also highly enjoy espresso (actual espresso, not so much the Starbucks burnt crap), so whatever.

I'd like to try Kona to see where it sits against columbian and jamaican.
Jamaican coffee is super-mellow. It's on the far end of the spectrum form McDonald's, which is quite possibly the nastiest coffee in the world.
It tastes like coffee, smells like coffee (but sweeter), but has absolutely no bitterness.

Where expresso and the likes get so strong you can hardly gag it down, you could literally brew a pot of coffee from a half pound of Jamaican and it'd be smooth as silk.
The caffeine would kill you, but that's another thread.

I drink Maxwell House Lite regularly. A friend suggested the Jamaican stuff to me last year and I bought some just to try it out.
I got Jablum, Wallenford Estate, and Amber Estate, of which Amber Estate was the clear winner.
