Front Street-African Coffee Origin Kenya Coffee Grade Profile

There are many different opinions about the origin of coffee, and when it comes to coffee, you have to think of Africa. It is said that the birthplace of coffee is Ethiopia's KAFFA province (KAFFA), legend of KAFFA shepherd grazing in Ethiopia steppe, found that sheep eat a certain red fruit after all excited, alive and kicking, so he also tasted one, feeling very sour and delicious, so picked some to the mosque imams taste, imams taste after feeling unusually excited, praying all night without sleep. So I recommend it to other believers, and everyone likes it very much.

。Because fresh fruits are not easy to preserve, they are dried and soaked in water to drink, so far the magical effect of this fruit has spread. Later coffee spread to Arabia, Arabs began to drink a lot, the earliest mainly used as wine and medicine. It wasn't until the 11th century or so that people began drinking coffee as a beverage after grinding coffee beans. The word coffee comes from the Arabic Qahwa, meaning "vegetable drink", which later spread to Turkey and then to Europe.

Ethiopia

Ethiopia is located in East Africa, and there are as many as 5,000 wild coffee bean varieties found in the forests of the southern Kaffa region alone. Ethiopia is considered the birthplace of coffee. Local residents found that cattle and sheep became excited, strong and even crazy after eating a plant with a red fruit. The locals picked the fruit to try, and slowly found that they also became energetic; so they began to pick them and deliberately plant them, because they came from Kaffa, so the world slowly named it Coffee.

Ethiopia has one of the most diverse breeds on earth. There are nine main coffee bean producing areas, namely Yega Shefi, Sidama, Hara, Limu, Kimma, Iruba, Kimbi (Lekanti), Tiebi (Bebeka), and Lake Tana.
