An 8 oz whole-bean bag lets you explore Plantation Blue’s dark Jamaica Blue Mountain roast in a smaller quantity while keeping control of the grind. The supplier describes deep cocoa and caramel-like sweetness with a rounded finish. Its dark-roast identity is clear on the package, separating this coffee from the medium whole-bean version of the same weight.

Coffee profile

Roaster Plantation Blue Coffee
Growing origin 100% Jamaica Blue Mountain
Roast Dark
Weight and form 8 oz / approximately 227 g; whole beans
Sensory profile Cocoa, caramel and a rounded finish
Certification statement JACRA, according to Plantation Blue

Reserve enough beans for a second controlled trial

Use 17 g coffee and 275 g water for the first filter brew. Keep a note of the grind and taste when comfortably warm. If you find the finish too drying, make one small extraction adjustment on the next attempt rather than increasing strength and changing grind together.

The bag contains about thirteen full 17 g doses before grinder retention. A small starting recipe leaves enough coffee to compare a press or espresso preparation later. For espresso, select a dose that fits your basket and adjust the grinder for your own machine.

Should I expect the same experience as the medium 8 oz beans?

Both carry the Blue Mountain origin designation, but the roast treatments differ. Comparing similar brew ratios and temperatures makes that distinction easier to assess. The dark roast’s intended smoothness does not remove the need for balanced extraction.

Try 8 oz medium-roast whole beans among our coffees for roast-level comparisons.

Great Service! It has been a few months since I purchased my machine, but I absolutely love it. Initially I had some issues with damage from shipping, but Joe took care of it immediately so there were no problems. He also stayed on the phone with me for a long time the day I received my machine so I could get everything working properly. I highly recommend!

Espresso Outlet was friendly and had a very good price. I did not expect delivery before Christmas, however the Alexia arrived on Christmas eve.This is a high quality machine. I emailed a couple of questions to the owners, and my questions were answered within a few hours.They seem like nice people, with good service and high quality espresso machines.

Great customer service! Joe worked with me from purchasing a grinder to ultimately returning and changing to a different grinder. It’s a tough decision buying without seeing or using and the fact that a business is willing to work with their customers goes a long way with me. I would definitely recommend Joe and EspressoOutlet.
