Coffee Beginnings

According to one coffee tale (National Geographic on-line), around 800 A.D.an Ethiopian shepherd named Kaldi found his goats bouncing around a dark-leafed shrub with bright red fruit, which they were consuming in copious joyousness. Kaldi plucked some cherries for himself and soon learned of the enlightening stimulation that followed. Witness to the divine discovery, a monk plucked some berries for his brothers, and that night they were uncannily alert in their prayer practices.

The tale is of the discovery of the bean or cherry, but the history of brewed coffee shows up somewhat later, around 1000 A.D. By the 13th century Muslims were drinking coffee religiously, and wherever the Islam Empire went the dark broth went too. Apparently, Arabia had made it a point to export only beans that had been rendered infertile by parching or boiling. Legend has it that no coffee seed sprouted outside Africa or Arabia until the 1600s, when the crafty Indian smuggler, Baba Budan, reportedly left Mecca with fertile seeds strapped to his belly.

Huhu, so, you know about the coffee tale now?
