There are many kinds of Arabian coffee, including Saudi coffee, Jordanian coffee and so on. In addition to the taste of coffee beans, Arabs also play their own strengths, mixed with other spices, so when tasting Arabica coffee will often capture a different flavor.

Of course, friends who are used to living in Arab countries must have heard or seen or even tried hookah (hookah). Bring three or five friends, a full-bodied cup of coffee, a fruity hookah, and fear that they will not be able to experience authentic Arab customs.

There are different legends about the origin of coffee. Among them, the most common and popular story is the story of the shepherd. Legend has it that there was a shepherd who happened to find his sheep jumping and dancing while herding sheep. If you look carefully, it turns out that the sheep ate a kind of red fruit that led to their funny behavior. He tried to pick some of these red fruits to boil, but the room was full of fragrance, and the juice was even more refreshing and refreshing after drinking it. Since then, this fruit has been used as a refreshing drink and has been well received.

In ancient times, Arabs first dried and boiled coffee beans and drank the juice as stomach medicine, thinking it was helpful to digestion. Coffee was later found to have a refreshing effect, and because Islam forbids drinking, coffee is used instead of alcoholic beverages as a refreshing drink. After the 15th century, Muslims who made pilgrimages to the holy land of Mecca brought coffee back to their places of residence, and coffee gradually spread to Egypt, Syria, Iran and Turkey. The entry of coffee into Europe was attributed to the Ottoman Empire of Turkey at that time. As the coffee-loving Ottoman army marched westward to Europe and was stationed there for several years, it left a large number of supplies, including coffee beans, when the army finally withdrew. People in Vienna and Paris were able to develop an European coffee culture based on these coffee beans and the cooking experience gained from the Turks. The war was originally occupied and destroyed, but it unexpectedly brought about cultural exchange and even integration.
