This time, I want to talk about the history of mocha, which is loved by coffee lovers. What is the history of Mocha that gives "followers" around the world a unique acidity and fragrance?
From Yemen to Europe
Coffee began to spread to Europe in the 17th century. Coffee shops have been set up everywhere, and citizens can drink coffee. France, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and other countries began to trade, and set up the "East India Company", and began coffee exchanges with Yemen.
Coffee fever throughout Europe
The United Kingdom
In Britain, coffee houses have been set up in Oxford, London. Residents of the cafe used to complain about "demonic taste" and complaints, but it took a long time for coffee to spread to the public.
In a forbidden woman's coffee shop, men seem to be used as social places.
France
By sending coffee from the Ottoman Emperor to France, it spread among the upper classes. Since then, when the cafe will be in different places, the traditional French wine merchants who asked the physicians' association to set up, but began to recite the "adverse effects of coffee", coffee to win the popularity of the public yes.
Germany
But it has been identified as an upper-class drink in Germany, and cafes in Hamburg and Berlin will be built, and it is also increasingly popular among ordinary people. In the 18th century, it seemed to represent the beer that coffee was a national drink that spread to families.
Become the port of the etymology of "mocha"
In this way, coffee enthusiastically accepted by European countries is also exported from the "small ports" of Yemen. The coffee called "mocha coffee" exported from the port is said to have become the etymology of the name "Moca coffee" that we currently drink.
In order to monopolize the coffee trade at that time, mocha coffee seemed to be transported after heating beans at high temperatures to eliminate the possibility of germination. When trying to smuggle coffee beans at that time, some people said that a fine had been imposed.
Grow in India
After that, coffee was grown out of Mysore, and India began to be in the hands of Muslims. For mocha coffee is an expensive small production, but in the name of momentum to make coffee did not win in the colony, Yemeni German coffee East African production of "mocha" is said to have been sold.
"Moka" is a variety of the port of Mocha in Yemen.
Mocha coffee seems to be a brand named after ports exported to Europe. If you follow the history of mocha coffee that you still love today, you can see that all cultures are involved in coffee.
