Coffee trees are native to the highlands of southwestern Ethiopia in Africa. It is said that more than a thousand years ago, a shepherd found that the sheep had eaten a kind of plant, became very excited and lively, and then discovered coffee. It is also said that a coffee forest was accidentally destroyed by a wildfire, and the smell of barbecue coffee attracted the attention of surrounding residents.

Local aborigines often grind the fruit of the coffee tree and knead it with animal fat to make many ball-shaped balls. These indigenous tribes use these coffee balls as precious food for soldiers who are about to go out to battle. It was not until around the 11th century that people began to use boiled coffee as a drink. In the 13th century, Ethiopian troops invaded Yemen and brought coffee to the Arab world. Because the Islamic doctrine forbids people to drink alcohol, some religious people think that this kind of drink stimulates the nerves and violates the doctrine. Coffee shops were banned and closed for a time, but the Egyptian sultan thought that coffee was not against the doctrine, so the ban was lifted. Coffee drinks quickly became popular in the Arab region. The word coffee Coffee, which comes from the Arabic Qahwa, which means "plant drink", later spread to Turkey and became the source of the word in European languages. The method of growing and making coffee has also been continuously improved and perfected by the Arabs.

The cultivation and production of coffee in the 17th century has always been monopolized by Arabs. At that time, it was mainly used in medicine and religion, and doctors and monks admitted that coffee had the effects of refreshing, awakening, strengthening the stomach, strengthening the body and stopping bleeding. The use of coffee was documented at the beginning of the 15th century and was integrated into religious ceremonies during this period. At the same time, it also appeared in the folk as a daily drink. Because drinking was strictly forbidden in Islam, coffee became a very important social drink at that time.
