Chocolate is usually added in the form of chocolate syrup, but some coffee selling systems are replaced by instant chocolate powder. Sometimes, whipped cream, cocoa powder, and marshmallows are added to accentuate the aroma of coffee and as a decoration.

Mocha beans are native to Ethiopia, Africa. Ethiopia also sells coffee through the port of Mocha, so Ethiopian sun-treated coffee is often called mocha. (such as Mocha-Hara Ethiopia Harrar) now the old port of Mocha has long been abandoned due to sediment deposition (today's place name Al Makha) and is exported by the northwestern port of Hudaida (Hodeida). However, people have long been accustomed to the name of Mocha, which is famous to the sky.

From Ethiopia, Africa, dry separated coffee beans of different sizes and colors. It has attractive unique fragrance and soft acidity of good quality. Medium-to-deep baking, the taste of sweet, smooth and unique aroma, the aftertaste of chocolate, is more lovely.

In fact, authentic mocha coffee is only produced in the Republic of Yemen in the southwest of the Arabian Peninsula, grows on steep hillsides at elevations of 3, 000 to 8, 000 feet, and is the oldest coffee in the world.

As early as more than 500 years ago, Yemen produced coffee in an ancient way. In the early 17th century, the first batch of Yemen coffee sold to Europe was exported through the ancient port of Mocha, which amazed Europeans. The delicious coffee shipped from the port of Mocha was called "mocha coffee", which is the origin of the name "mocha coffee".

Yemen coffee often shows a chocolate-like bitter sweet flavor, affecting today's fancy coffee seasoned with chocolate sauce is also known as the word "mocha".

So when you see the word "mocha coffee", it may mean purebred Yemen coffee, or neighboring Ethiopian coffee, or simply "fancy coffee with chocolate sauce". In any case, for picky coffee gluttons, only the real Yemen coffee is qualified to be called "mocha coffee".

3. Mocha coffee maker

Steam brewing coffee maker, also known as mocha pot, is a method that uses the pressure caused by boiling water to help make coffee. It originated in Italy and was invented by Alfanso Bialetti to see a structure that can be used to make coffee in washing machines used by local women. At that time, there was a metal tube in the middle of the washing machine, which sucked up the heated soapy water from the bottom of the washing machine and sprayed it onto the top of the clothes. AlfansoBialetti was inspired to create the world's first home coffee pot that extracts coffee under steam pressure, allowing people to brew coffee like a coffee shop at home.
