The history of coffee beans

Legend has it that around the tenth century AD, on the Ethiopian plateau of Africa, a shepherd Carl found sheep excited after eating some kind of red fruit. As a result, Carl distributed this incredible red fruit to the locals, and its magical effect spread.

There is also a legend that in 1258, in the mountains of Yemen, Shek Omar, who was deported by his people for crime, was exiled to Vasaba (in Arabia). When he was walking on the mountain exhausted, he found that the birds on the branches made a very sweet cry after pecking at the fruit of the tree. So he boiled the fruit with water, and after drinking it, the original feeling of tiredness was eliminated.

Later, Omar collected many of these magical fruits, and when he met someone who was sick, he made the fruit into soup for them to drink, and refreshed them. Because of his good deeds everywhere, his sins were soon forgiven. When he returned to Mocha, he was revered as a saint for finding this fruit. It is said that the magic cure at that time was coffee.
