Going to Jamaica
I am leaving for Jamaican on a sort of self-made service trip on friday and will be in Magadee(spelling?) Bay for ten days. It's not really a dedicated origin trip. But as a Barista and just-beginning roaster for my shop, I am curious about how I could use this to learn about coffee. Does anyone have any advice or contacts for farms, mills, exporters, cupping labs, etc. that would tolerate a visitor or even give a tour? It seems like there must be some sort of opportunity for this, though I don't want it to be too touristy... Thanks.

James,
Check with the Jamaican Coffee Board. http://www.ciboj.org/cib/
They are very friendly and can direct you to points of interest, farms, processing facilities and such.
I will send you an email address of a coffee farmer friend privately.
