The Origin and Legend of Coffee | how was coffee discovered?

There are many legends about the origin of coffee, and the most widely spread and well-known is the Story of the Shepherd. Because of the age, there are many versions of the story of the shepherd: around the sixth century AD, when a shepherd was grazing on the prairie of Ethiopia in Africa, he happened to find that his goat became very excited after eating some kind of red fruit, so the shepherd himself tried it and found that the red fruit tasted sweet and sour and had a refreshing effect. The red fruit is taken to Yemen on the other side of the Red Sea, where Sufi Muslims bake, grind, boil and drink the seeds so that they can stay awake during spiritual practice. The seeds of this plant spread among believers, and the word "coffee" is pronounced "qahwah" in Arabic, which means "brewing". Later, coffee was spread to Turkey and Greece by the pioneering Arabs at that time, and was gradually loved by Europeans. The English word "coffee" comes from the Greek word "kaweh", which means "enthusiasm and strength".
