A Short Story About Coffee
According to one legend, the invigorating effect of coffee beans was first discovered by an Ethiopian goat herder named Kaldi, who noticed that his goats became more energetic after eating small red berries. He told nearby monks, who discovered that by roasting the beans, they could make a delicious drink. Another story claims that a Persian physician named Al-Razi was the first to use coffee ("qahwa") as a stimulating medicine and mentioned it in his work The Continents. Coffee was first cultivated in Yemen on terraced farmlands. The habit of drinking coffee spread through Muslim pilgrims to Mecca and Medina and then across the Middle East. Later, coffee cultivation appeared in Arab countries and Egypt, where drinking coffee (or qahwa) quickly became a daily habit.
In the 16th century, travelers and botanists visiting the Middle East sent word to Europe about an unknown plant and the drink made from its fruit. Merchants quickly recognized the potential of the new drink, and the first bags of coffee beans reached Venice in the early 17th century. This was the moment when Europeans began learning about coffee. News of coffee reaching Venice spread rapidly, and soon Dutch traders also showed interest in coffee cultivation and trade. Thanks to European travelers and monks, coffee made its way across the world and quickly became highly popular.
