Where it all began.The origin
The first coffee was brewed by goat herders. Back to 900 A.D thanks to those goats that dance after eating the fruit(coffee bean)of the Coffea plant. A monk curious enough to explore the flavor behind them made a drink out of it. Thus giving rise to the first-ever coffee in the world
How coffee became “coffee”
Starting from Qahwah then to kahveh in Turkish, and then Dutch exclaimed it as koffie where it ended as coffee by the English.

IT’S CONTROVERSIAL
