There were all kinds of events before coffee spread to the world. At first, coffee was enjoyed in a completely different way from the coffee we are drinking now. Let's take a look at the origin and popularity of Arabian coffee.

Enjoy "Bonn" in Ethiopia

Ethiopia is considered to be the birthplace of coffee. In Ethiopia, seeds from wild "coffee fields" that have long been grown in the highlands are said to be edible. Ethiopians call these coffee beans "Bonn" and basically seem to have used food such as pots.

Coffee culture celebrated in ceremonies

So far, there are rituals in Ethiopia where babies are born and butter is used as a celebration to fry coffee and barley.

Bankham spreads in Arabian Peninsula

The Bonn enjoyed in Ethiopia was eventually transferred to the Arabian Peninsula. Bonn, known as the "van" in Arabic, is different from the way it is spread in Ethiopia. This is the so-called Bancam coffee prototype.

From food to drink

Bangkam is a boiled van (coffee beans) that is dried and baked in hot water. As for the description, it feels like Turkish coffee, but since the beans were not roasted at that time, the taste will be very different.

In this way, coffee has become a popular food and drink.

From Ethiopia to the Arabian Peninsula

Coffee Arabian Peninsula has been sent to Yemeni Islamic law scholars, seeking Gemaredin to travel to Ethiopia to keep these words triggered by a legend.

Muslim Gemaledine seems to have tried itself, knowing that coffee is widely spread to Abyssinia in Ethiopia. The refreshing feeling I felt at that time was incomparable.

Restore physical condition and discover arousal effect

After returning to Yemen, Gemadin was unwell and unwell. At that time, I remembered the effect of drinking coffee in Yemen, and I heard that he ordered it. When Gemaledin drinks coffee, I notice that my physical condition recovers when I drink, and I have a sober effect to relieve drowsiness.

Gemaladin advises them to recommend coffee to monks who are fighting sleepers during midnight training. The incident is said to have triggered the spread of Yemeni coffee.

Eat coffee and drink coffee

I have seen the history of coffee as an Ethiopian food until it became a drink in the Arabian Peninsula. At this stage, it looks like a completely different drink from our favorite coffee. Even after that, various events gradually occurred, getting closer to today's coffee.
