Jamaica for Sale

[ Original writting ]

The Jamaica Environmental Trust released "Jamaica for Sale," a 92 minute video documentary highlighting disturbing issues behind the island's normally rosy sun, sea and sand tourism image.

The video features the faces and voices of Caribbean personalities' talking about the wake of a burst of construction of mega-hotels across Jamaica's coastline. The film shows how gains from tourism development come at a high price to the people. Moreover, local people are being cut off, penned in and denied their voice - all in the name of tourism development. The video set a major emphasis on the "FACTs" of Tourism DEVELOPEMENT!

Jamaican Blue Mountain

Jamaica is one place of production of Blue Mountain Coffee.
Original Artical

Jamaican Blue Mountain is one of the world’s most sought-after specialty coffee.But it’s hard to find even in Jamaica, since the vast majority of the crop is commercially grown, machine roasted, and then exported. Only a few backwoods growers still roast the old-fashioned way, selling their harvest to locals and passersby.
The world’s top importers are on a constant hunt for the next great bean."To find the best, you’ve got to roll up your sleeves and go to the source," said Geoff Watts, a Chicago-based coffee company.
According to Dennis, the cloud cover produces a denser, more flavorful arabica bean. He and his extended family still pick the ripe coffee by hand, lay the beans on bamboo racks to dry, and then roast them over a wood fire.Even the grinding method is rudimentary,Hampton poured the beans' procession got to be by hand and natural.
This was some amazing coffee produced.
