There are a lot of countries that grow great products but like any harvested product a lot depends on the plantation (growers) and the bean quality.
Jamaica's Blue Mountain is very good and very expensive.
Hawaii's Kona is also good but a bit over rated and expensive as well.
Brazilian, some Colombian and Indonesia's Sumatra are all fine products.
Mike, is it true that coffee grown at higher elevations is somehow better?
Keith, higher elevations do indeed produce a less acidic and richer product, thus the Jamaican Blue Mountain and Hawaiian Kona are grown in higher elevations. You will recall Folgers’s tag line "mountain grown" that played on that bit of knowledge.
