The origin of coffee

The history of coffee begins in AD 850, so it is about the discovery of the shepherd Khaldi. He used to walk his goats in the fields to feed them plants. According to Khaldi legend, the goats ate the cherries from the coffee trees and were agitated. Indeed, coffee is a stimulant and, with heavy consumption, we feel restless.

This shepherd had made the decision to bring his coffee back to the monks of the city to tell them about his famous discovery. The monks then consumed in turn in order to stay awake and to say their prayers ...

The birth of roasted coffee, a legend? The monks, with a high consumption, would have eaten the cherries of the coffee trees and spat out the stones, which would eventually reach the fire. The beans having had a very good smell in contact with the flame had immediately aroused the curiosity of his monks, and this is how roasted coffee was born…

Okay, but what is the pure origin of the coffee cherry? ? We tend to be wrong, since this is Ethiopia! It is in this country that the first coffee plant, the Koffea Arabica, was. Its leaves were consumed through an infusion.

And Yemen in this whole story? The Yemenis would have taken Ethiopian plants to make a roasted coffee trade in Harrar, a market place. This is how the colonization of coffee settles from country to country from Yemen, passing through their embarkation port, Mocha.
