There are many legends about the discovery of coffee. There is a legend that in the 13th century, there was a prince in Ethiopia who found that his camel loved to eat a small oar fruit on a bush, and he was very excited and energetic after eating it. So he also picked some small berries to taste, and finally discovered this refreshing coffee drink.

Another legend is that one day in 500 BC, an Ethiopian shepherd herded his sheep to a strange place for grazing. On a small hill, the sheep ate a kind of small red fruit on a small tree. after returning in the evening, the sheep were unusual in the fence, not as peaceful and docile as usual, but excited, restless, tearing and shouting, and even jumping all night long. The owner thought that the sheep had been poisoned by eating some grass and got up several times to take a closer look at the lights, but they saw the sheep in high spirits and alive. It doesn't look like poisoning pain. The next morning, the shepherd was ready to drive the sheep to another place for grazing. After opening the fence, the sheep ran desperately to the mountain with little red fruit. No matter how the shepherd whipped to stop it, when the shepherd was exhausted, he had to follow the sheep to the hill. The shepherd was very surprised to see each sheep scrambling to eat the little red fruit, so he picked some small red fruit and chewed it over and over again and found that the little red fruit was sweet with some bitterness.

When he returned from grazing, the shepherd felt so excited that he couldn't sleep all night. He even wanted to dance with the hands of the sheep and dance with his feet. The magic of the little red fruit spread quickly, and the shepherds of Ethiopia picked and chewed the little red fruit everywhere and sold it on the market. Later, this little red fruit developed into the most popular coffee drink in the world today.

Coffee fruit contains two seeds, namely coffee beans. The two beans are connected face to face with each other on one side of the plane. Each coffee bean has a thin outer film, which is called silver skin, and its outer layer is covered with a yellow outer skin, called endocarp. The whole coffee bean is wrapped in a sticky pulp to form the coffee pulp, which is soft and sweet, with the outer shell.

Planting history

In fact, the Arabs began to grow coffee in 525 BC, and chewing fried coffee beans became popular in the Arab region. In 890 AD, Arab merchants sold coffee beans to Yemen, and Yemenis made coffee beans into drinks for the first time. In the 15th century, coffee was introduced into Europe, Asia and soon into America. By the 18th century, coffee was widely grown in tropical and subtropical regions of the world and became one of the three major drinks in the world. Coffee ranks first among the top three beverages in annual sales, three times as much as cocoa and four times as much as tea. Although coffee has been cultivated in the world for more than 2000 years. However, coffee has been cultivated in China for only a few hundred years. In 1884, Taiwan Province began to introduce coffee. At the beginning of the 20th century, overseas Chinese brought coffee back from Malaysia to grow in Hainan Province. Later, tropical and subtropical provinces in the south began to grow plant coffee one after another. Although the cultivation time is short, the coffee from Hainan and Yunnan provinces in China has excellent quality and unique charm, so it enjoys a high reputation in the world. After some foreign businessmen buy it at a low price, it is processed and sold to the international market. It has become an expensive world-class drink, especially the small-grain coffee grown in Yunnan Province. Because of the large temperature difference between day and night in Yunnan, it is conducive to the accumulation of substances in it. Therefore, it tastes strong but not bitter, fragrant but not strong, oily and fruity, so it is praised as "the best quality coffee in the world" by coffee merchants at home and abroad.
