Coffee is more than just a drink. She is a memory, a kind of expectation. Coffee originated from Kaffa, Ethiopia. Later, coffee spread all over the world and was named after its place of origin "KAFFA". It was not officially named "coffee" until the 18th century. Two widely circulated stories about coffee tell the legend of coffee that grew up silently on the African continent.

Arab coffee legend. In 1258, Shek Omar, the chief expelled by his people because he had a secret crush on the king's daughter, was too hungry and tired to walk any more when he wandered to Vasaba (in Arabia), far from his hometown of Mocha. when he was sitting on the root of a tree to rest, he found a bird flying on the branch, singing in a melodious voice he had never heard before. He looked carefully and found that the bird was pecking at the fruit on the branch before it opened its throat and made a wonderful cry, so he picked all the fruit in the area and boiled it with water. After that, he began to exude a strong fragrance. After drinking it, he not only felt good, but also felt tired physically and mentally. So he picked many of these magical fruits and brought them soup to drink whenever there were patients. finally, because of his good deeds everywhere, the people in his hometown forgave him for his sins, let him go back to Mocha, and respected him as a "saint".

When you are faced with the story of an African coffee legend, it turns into a shepherd in Ethiopia in the 16th century, and one night his goat didn't come back on time. The next morning he found the goat beating feverishly under a bush with red berries. He thought it was very incredible, and after careful observation, he realized that the sheep had eaten only one kind of red fruit. So he took the fruit and distributed it to the monks in the monastery, all of whom felt refreshed after eating it. It is said that the fruit was used as a pick-me-up medicine and was well received by doctors.

The legend of coffee does not have a strange imagination, but is replaced by a story that is as light and clear as the interpretation of history, rational and passionate.
