Celebrating Heritage: The Story of Xaymaca Coffee Traders
At Xaymaca Coffee Traders, our story is deeply rooted in the rich heritage of the Jamaica Blue Mountains, where the finest coffee beans in the world are cultivated. As a family-owned and operated business, we take immense pride in preserving the legacy of our founders, whose passion and dedication continue to shape our company today.
Join us on a journey through our history, values, and commitment to producing the highest quality Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee and sourcing only the best coffee from other top coffee-producing regions in the world.
A Family Legacy in Every Cup
Our journey began in the fall of 2008 when David Levy reached a pivotal moment in his career. Despite being the driving force behind several successful business ventures, these companies were not his own. Reflecting on his future, David resonated with William Ernest Henley's resolve from the poem "Invictus" to be “the master of his fate, the captain of his soul.”
Determined to create something he could be proud of and pass down to his three children, David drew from his extensive experience working with the United Nations, as well as in real estate and investment banking. He recognized that across all cultures, people value core principles of quality and integrity.
David and his wife, Angela, established Xaymaca Coffee Traders in 2009. His vision was to build a business that not only provided reliable service to its customers but also maintained a strong connection to his beloved Jamaican homeland and to provide his children a tangible heirloom that could be passed down generations. David and Angela also committed to ensure that the benefits of their efforts reached the people of the Blue Mountain region and the Jamaican diaspora.
The Evolution of a Family Business
As Xaymaca Coffee Traders grew to become the leading distributor of Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee, David and Angela brought their three children—Damian, Rachelle, and Brianna—into the business in 2019. This integration marked the fulfillment of David's vision of a true family business, ensuring that the legacy and values he cherished would continue through the next generation. Damian, Rachelle, and Brianna are excited to join their parents in sharing the rich heritage of Jamaica with customers worldwide.
The Essence of Jamaica Blue Mountain Coffee
Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee is renowned for its exquisite flavor profile, characterized by mild acidity, rich aroma, and smooth, well-balanced taste. This premium Blue Mountain coffee is meticulously grown in the mist-covered mountains, handpicked at the peak of ripeness, and roasted to perfection to bring out its unique qualities. Our single-origin Jamaica coffee is a true reflection of the terroir, offering a taste experience that is both authentic and unparalleled.
