Coffee Story - where it began

Coffee joints are part of the culture in most cities in the world and coffee is consumed by more than 30% of the world's population. Coffee is an extremely popular beverage and can be taken hot or cold.

According to legend, coffee was discovered by an Arab goat herder named Kaldi. One day he noticed his goats get livelier after they ate the berries of the coffee plant. Intrigued by what he saw, he decided to boil the berries and experienced the same stimulating effect due to the caffeine found in the berries. Coffee was later roasted and brewed.
