I heard the same thing, its been like this for 15 or 20 yrs.
I did some research on what makes JBM true JBM.
There is a certain area of acreage, if the beans are not grown
within this perimeter, it is not the real thing.
The slight climate difference, mist laying on this land in
the AM hrs. makes the difference.
I remember going to Negril in 1974, some coffee i drank then
was like rocket fuel.

I think a lot of what is labeled as JBM is "watered down", so it will have a blend of the real thing and some that isn't, so it's not necessarily all grown outside of that area.
