What Coffee Roasters Of Jamaica sells, what it costs against the rest of the market, and who should buy it.
Coffee Roasters Of Jamaica asks £1.42 a cup at its cheapest, which is more than most whole bean coffee we list. Plenty of brands charge that and are worth it. The question is what you get for the difference, so here is the range, what it costs against everything else, and where we would put the money.
Short answer
A middle-of-the-road medium roast, black or white, and it is not cheap.

What kind of roaster this is
Coffee Roasters Of Jamaica sells whole bean and ground in the UK, and we track 4 of their coffees, in 454g and 227g.
About 50% of the classified range is blended, so Coffee Roasters Of Jamaica is playing both games: something dependable to reorder, and something changing to be curious about. Everything we track from them traces back to Jamaica, so this is a narrow book rather than a broad one. The roasting sits on just 2 of our five levels, so this is a range with a house style rather than a spread to pick from. Nothing here comes in a kilo bag. That keeps the coffee fresher in your cupboard and costs you the bulk discount, which is the trade you are making whether or not anyone points it out.

What Coffee Roasters Of Jamaica coffee costs
The range runs from £1.42 to £2.69 a cup across four products. That is a 1.9× spread inside a single brand, which is why "is Coffee Roasters Of Jamaica expensive" is the wrong question; the right one is which bag you pick. The cheapest is Blue Mountain Coffee 100% Jamaica Roasted in the 454g, and the dearest is Blue Mountain Coffee 100% Jamaica Roasted and in the 227g.
| Product | Format | Size | Per cup | Per kg |

Bags themselves run £33.89 to £54.29. Ignore that column. A bigger bag costs more and almost always costs less per cup, which is the only number that follows you home.
The one to buy
Blue Mountain Coffee 100% Jamaica Roasted is the cheapest thing Coffee Roasters Of Jamaica sells, at £1.42 a cup. We cannot yet set that against a market average for whole bean coffee, so treat it as the floor of the range rather than a verdict on value.

How Coffee Roasters Of Jamaica tastes
We have not tasted Coffee Roasters Of Jamaica, so we are not going to invent a tasting note. A flavour score we did not earn would be worth less than none, and this section would be the easiest place on the site to quietly make one up. What we can show you is measured: where every coffee in the range sits on our own five-point roast scale, and which origins go into it. Roast is the strongest single predictor of whether a cup arrives bright and fruity or dark and chocolatey, so it is the closest honest answer to what this brand is like to drink.
How Coffee Roasters Of Jamaica roasts
Every coffee standardised onto our own five-point scale rather than the roaster's. Read these as tendencies: origin, process and how you brew all move the cup.
Who it suits
- People who want a house blend to fall back on with named origins to wander into.
- Slow drinkers, and anyone who would rather buy little and often than watch a kilo go stale.
- People who already know they like a medium roast, because that is essentially all there is here.
Is it good value?
Our test is simple, and it is the same one we apply to everything: cost per cup against the median for the same format. Coffee Roasters Of Jamaica lands around the middle. It is not the cheapest way to a cup of coffee, and the money above the median buys convenience and consistency rather than a smaller bill. Whether that is a fair trade is genuinely your call, not ours.
What else to consider
No brand is worth buying without knowing what sits next to it on price. These are the closest whole bean coffees we track to Coffee Roasters Of Jamaica, and the comparison hubs will put all of them on the same per-cup basis if you want to go wider.
