Our Signature Coffee Blend is Gold! Jamaica Blue Wins Six Golden Bean Awards

Jamaica Blue has just won another prestigious gold medal and five bronze medals at the 2024 Golden Bean Australasian Awards.

The Golden Bean is an international coffee roaster competition – the world’s largest, in fact. The Australasian event took place from the 15th to 19th of October at St David Dairy in Fitzroy, Melbourne. Competition was fierce, with over 450 coffee roasters from Australia, New Zealand, Pacific Islands and Southeast Asia gathering to compete across 11 categories.

The Jamaica Blue Signature Blend took out the top prize in the Large Chain/Franchise Milk Based award. With 50 judges and over 800 entries, it is a fantastic achievement!

The Blend received another 3 Bronze awards, while two of our carefully crafted Single Origins were awarded Bronze.

What Makes Our Signature Blend Special

We’re named for the Blue Mountains in Jamaica, home to some of the world’s best coffee. Our Signature Blend coffee is known for being seriously good, with a loyal following around Australia. It is blended with care from the finest Arabica beans and goes through a meticulous process to achieve a rich, full-bodied flavour profile that is beautifully balanced.

Our beans are expertly roasted at our dedicated Jahnus roastery in Melbourne, ensuring consistent quality and taste across the brand.

“The Golden Bean awards are the biggest in the business,” says Jeremy Regan, Jamaica Blue’s Master Roaster.  “To be recognised by top industry judges across so many categories in 2024 is a reflection of the hard work that goes into the entire coffee journey,”

“We create a distinctive coffee experience for our customers by ensuring excellence at every touchpoint of the process. Credit also goes to the skilled Jamaica Blue baristas, who are all trained in coffee to produce the perfect cup!”

That commitment to excellence was recognised with the Gold medal for the Large Chain Store/Franchise Milk Based category, as well as Bronze for the Espresso, Milk Based and Large Chain Store/Franchise Espresso categories.

A Single Point of Origin for Coffee Connoisseurs

For lovers of coffee, Jamaica Blue also serves up a Single Origin that rotates with the seasons. Discerning customers can enjoy unique flavours from small batch producers from interesting global regions. Our “Jamaica Blue Mountain” Single Origin won Bronze in the Elite category at the Golden Bean, while the Jamaica Blue Single Origin Brazil Fazenda Fazina took out Bronze in the Large Chain Store/ Franchise Milk Based Category.

Single Origins are available both in-store and to take home in easy packs, so our customers can also enjoy Jamaica Blue in the comfort of their homes.
