The Guadeloupe Bonifieur is a variety of coffee grown in Guadeloupe. Guadeloupe Bonifieur is the ancestor of Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee[1][citation needed] and is very rare.[2] The fresh air, high altitude, and abundance of rain create ideal conditions for growing this Arabica variety.[3] The variety is called Guadeloupe Bonifieur because of its high quality and great taste[citation needed], and because, in the past, it was used to enhance lower quality blends.[2] Connoisseurs consider it one of the best coffees in the world,[2][4] even though it is only available from a few distributors.
