Will the Real Jamaican Blue Please Stand Up?
In an effort to weed out impostors, the Coffee
Industry Board of Jamaica has been using Jamaican natives living in the US to
"mystery shop" coffee branded as Jamaica Blue Mountain.
After purchasing the coffee
from either online or brick and mortar stores, the coffee is shipped back to
Jamaica for authenticity testing. Anyone producing "fake" Jamaican Blue had
better watch out – the Jamaican government is planning
to prosecute any violators.
