Turkey is the first nation to secularize coffee drinks.

If you walk through the streets of Milan in the evening, you will find a faint aroma of coffee floating in the air in the quiet alley. At the end of the alley, there is a warm cafe where you can relax and enjoy afternoon tea. Accompanied by jazz and coffee, the soul interacts warmly, here, coffee is not only coffee, time can also be very slow.

Tahartoros, author of the history of Turkish coffee published on the origin of cafes, pointed out that although coffee was first introduced from Yemen, Turkey was the first nation to secularize coffee drinks. More than 300 years ago, soldiers of the Turkish Ottoman Empire were defeated in the siege of Vienna, leaving several sacks of coffee when they retreated. Europeans thought it was camel feed. It was later discovered that the beans were a refreshing agent for Turkish officers and soldiers, and they tasted good. A clever businessman bought the coffee beans left by the Turks during their retreat and opened the first coffee shop in Vienna. Western countries are addicted to coffee as a result, and Turkey can be called the first coffee teacher for Europeans.

The merchant of Venice first brought coffee to Europe in 1615. At this time, the other two hot drinks began to rise quietly in Europe. The first is hot chocolate, which was brought to Spain from the United States by the Spaniards in 1528; the other is tea, which was first sold in Europe in 1610. At first, coffee was mainly sold by lemonade vendors, so it was considered to have medicinal properties.

The first European cafes appeared in Venice in 1683, the most famous of which was the Florida Cafe in St. Mark's Square, which opened in 1720 and is still open to commercial activities today. Lloyd, the world's largest insurance company, started out as a cafe by Edward. Lloyd started it in 1688 and prepared a list of insurance ships for his customers.

The origin of coffee or coffee shop always appears in front of us at the same time as literature, music and painting. it is true that coffee shop is not an educational institution, but it has nourished generations of great masters of art and ideas. The cafe frees people from vulgarity and awakens excellence. What he has achieved is not a soulless specialist, but to become a literate person.
