According to the legend, coffee originated from Africa in A.D. 800.
Kaldi, a legendary Ethiopian goatherd, noticed his herd dancing from one
coffee shrub to another, grazing on the cherry-red berries containing
the beans and picked he tried the berries himself and felt the same.
The red cherries which the sheep ate and become very active were taken home and the berries were the fruit of the coffee tree.
Sometime later, a passing monk observed Kaldi and the goats. When Kaldi
told him about the berries, the monk thought they might be the answer to
his prayers — literally. It seems that the monk was always falling
asleep in the middle of prayers. When he ate the berries, he stayed
awake.
Another tale which has been around for some time involves an Arabian who
uses coffee beans to survive an exile and was discovered near the town
of Mocha and thus it was refer to coffee as Mocha.
Coffee soon became the accepted drink of the Arab world. For a long time, it was traded locally.
As everyone know it, originated in Arabia where the first roasted coffee
beans were brewed around A.D. 1000. By the thirteenth century, Muslims
drank coffee religiously and wherever the Islam went, coffee went too.
A story of discovery of coffee
A beverage is a liquid designed for consumption, often crafted to have a pleasing flavor, such as an alcoholic drink. History, in contrast, is a systematic record of events, particularly those affecting a nation, institution, science, or art, usually with an analysis of their causes. Thus, the history of beverages entails a detailed and organized account of the evolution of various drinks over time.
