A taste of Jamaica
08 July 2003
Commuters using Oxshott train station in Surrey can now enjoy a cup of coffee thanks to Mary-Anne Twyson, who has set up a mobile coffee business called "Caribbean Blue" with one very special ingredient - Blue Mountain Coffee from Jamaica.
The coffee is supplied from Mary-Anne's family-owned Old Tavern Coffee Estate based in the Blue Mountains in Jamaica which produced Arabica Typica, Jamaica's first single estate coffee.
The beans are grown on the north-facing slopes of the Blue Mountains, a region which receives over 200 inches of rain per year and a low of 5¡C. These conditions slow down the maturation of the coffee beans.
