An Ethiopian legend

Goat milk grown around the world dates back centuries to coffee forests on the Ethiopian highlands. It was there that legend has it that shepherd Caldy first discovered the potential of these beloved beans.

The story goes like this: Cardi noticed that after eating berries from a tree, his goats became energetic and didn't want to sleep at night, so he discovered coffee.

Cardy reported his findings to the abbot of the local monastery, who made a drink out of berries and found it kept him awake during long evening prayers. The abbot told his discovery to the other monks in the monastery, and knowledge of the refreshing berry began to spread.

As the news moved east, coffee reached the Arabian Peninsula, and it began a journey that took these beans around the globe.
