Let’s put off the wine tasting<\/a> for the evening or the weekend. And now, in order to effectively finish this working day, we may need some coffee. Although if you have already tried a wine and food pairing during your lunch or dinner, then coffee also does not hurt. So let’s talk about the history of the spread of coffee plant and drink in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The birthplace of coffee<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The\nbirthplace of coffee is Ethiopia. A plant called Coffea Arabica has been used\nsince time immemorial. Nevertheless, coffee was not used in the form, which\nthis drink is familiar to us. Ethiopian locals made a paste by mixing coffee\nbeans ground into powder and butter. This dish had both high calorie content\nand was a stimulating substance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arabica and Yemen coffee export monopoly<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Coffee came\nto Yemen in the 6th century. Since on the other side of the Red Sea there were\nalmost identical climatic conditions, as in Ethiopia, the plant quickly took\nroot on the Arabian Peninsula. It was in Yemen that coffee appeared that we are\nfamiliar with today. The drink spread across the Arabian Peninsula from Moka,\nthe city of Yemen, the oldest port specializing in the export of coffee. This\ncity also gave its name to one of the varieties of arabica, as well as a geyser\ncoffee maker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
