An anecdote about the History of Coffee Culture-"alerting the Pope"

Paris, has developed a good appetite, it seems that anything can be swallowed and digested. No, the French crocodile got stuck in the neck when the coffee got into the throat.

The citizens bit their ears in groups of three, discussing what kind of final decision the Pope might make. The majestic and cold religious shadow of the Middle Ages still lingered in the streets of Europe, and people could only kneel and thank God for the meal. Except for milk and goat's milk, they could only drink a bowl of cold boiled water to quench their thirst. Coffee can only live in an ambiguous identity. The Turk's practice is to grind and boil the coffee beans, then mix them with fine sugar, and the cup is filled with a slightly bitter fragrance. A drop of entrance, the tip of the tongue is like the refreshing silk of the east to the end, very comfortable. Although it is an "outsider", coffee has become a "heartthrob" of Cleopatra. The French have always been so kind, and the coffee culture is the same, only talking about feelings, not asking about origin. The whole of Paris smacked its tongue, full of fragrance, and felt that it was too late to meet each other.

Paris, Rome, Venice. Coincidentally, he pricked up his ears and waited for news from the pope. And the bald priests in the church are really tiresome. they talk about God's genealogy and shake their huge heads like a rattle. These "European monks" are by no means ascetic monks, they are God's legal "offices" and "brokers" in secular society. Around the Middle Ages, the kings, emperors or archdukes of Europe had to look at God, and as long as the pope did not nod, he would bleed when he moved a table. This time, the ambiguous coffee hit the muzzle of the gun. it is not only a pagan specialty on the Muslim side, but also exciting after drinking too much, dancing like drunken wine. Perhaps this delicious "Arabian wine" is an ecstasy soup blended by pagans. Italy has been stirred into a pot of porridge by black coffee, and priests have begun to criticize and suppress coffee beans that have entered the country illegally. They recognized it as a "devil's drink" and warned: "We Christians must not touch anything that Islamists drink badly." The coffee lawsuit finally entered the Vatican, when the pope was Clement Ⅷ 1592-1605, and his final ruling was directly related to the life and death of coffee in continental Europe.

Fortunately, the Pope did not fall with the wind, he is a respectable gourmet. Of course, such a tall mouth is very clever, he gently took a sip of sugary coffee, his frown stretched out bit by bit, and he believed that his sense of taste was not so stupid as to use this strange black drink as rat medicine. His beaming voice immediately echoed in the cathedral: "it tastes good!" It is a waste to let the pagans own such a delicious thing. From now on, let coffee be baptized and become a drink for believers in God. "

In the words of the Pope, coffee and coffee culture are alive. Europe has given it a "legal pass".
