Boutique coffee culture do you know the origin of coffee

About the sixth century AD, legend has it that in Ethiopia (the Republic of Northeast Africa, the full name of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia, Amharic is the national language, English is widely spoken, and the capital Addis Ababa.) After many explorations on the plateau, shepherd Kaldi found that every time his sheep ate the fruit of a wild shrub, they could not help but get excited and even make a frenzy. The mysterious veil of coffee is about to be untied! Centuries later, the nuts (coffee beans) of this evergreen shrub of the Rubiaceae family were consciously picked, roasted by proper roasting methods, and made with a variety of cooking utensils. it became what we call "coffee" today. Coffee is called "Kaweh" in Greek, meaning "strength and passion".

According to what we have learned from textbooks today, the aborigines of the Ethiopian plateau in Africa initially tried to chew ground coffee beans to treat stomach problems, and it was not until the 13th century that they were roasted and drunk. The fragrance of coffee gradually blew down from the plateau of Africa and went on an expedition to Arabia. it soon captivated everyone and became a representative drink in the Arab world. The origin of coffee is so romantic and bizarre that it may not matter whether it is true or not. But what is certain is that coffee is the bearer of a romantic plot in human history.

Around the late fifteenth century, this fragrant and wonderful drink quickly crossed the Middle East and began to attract the attention of Europeans. According to historical records, coffee spread to Turkey around 1544 and successively to Italy and France through trade routes in the 16th century.

In 1570, when the Turkish army besieged Vienna and failed to retreat, someone found a bag of black seeds in the Turkish army's barracks. No one knew what it was. A Polish man who had lived in Turkey took the bag of coffee and opened his first coffee shop in Vienna. At the end of the 16th century, coffee was introduced into Europe on a large scale through Italy in the name of "Arabian wine".

Since the Dutch moved to Java for trial planting, many tropical countries have scrambled to grow them. Coffee entered America in the 1820s. Since then, as a result of European and American business and trade, coffee has entered the Chinese market. Around 1650, Oxford, England, appeared the first coffee-scented coffee shop in Western Europe (a shop selling coffee, which is said to have originated from the Islamic shrine "Mecca"). Coffee has become the favorite drink of Europeans. Wealthy and sophisticated Europeans soon devoted themselves to coffee, and they quickly developed many unique flavors and fascinating fancy coffees.
