Coffee finds its origin in Ethiopia, where two stories are circulating about the discovery of this invigorating drink. The first tale tells the story of the banished Sufi mystic Omar. This follower of Sufi spiritual leader Abu Al-Hassan Al-Shadilli is said to have taken shelter in a cave when, starving, he resorted to eating coffee cherries. As he found the berries too bitter he then roasted the beans and ate them, but found them too hard. He then boiled the beans, and the resulting aromatic brown liquid turned out to be so stimulating that Omar survived his banishment. According to the legend, Omar then introduced this miraculous drink in Mocha, Yemen from where coffee conquered the Arabian world.
The second tale tells the story of a Ethiopian goatherd named Kaldi. He was grazing his herd when he noticed strange behaviour in some of his goats. They were jumping up and down after eating certain red cherries. He tried some of the cherries himself and found he became energized as well. When he brought the cherries to a local monastery the local abbot disapproved and threw the cherries into the fire. When the fire began to give off a delicious smell the now roasted beans were quickly taken from the fire and boiled, resulting in the world’s first cup of coffee.
