Coffee Bean : TCS ; Ethiopia and Yemen Story

Ethiopia and Yemen Story

Kaldi was an Ethiopian goat herder, who grazed his flock on the highland plains of Ethiopia. Kaldi noticed his flock become frisky after eating the leaves and berries of the Shiny green plant with the red fruits. Kaldi noticing no ill effects to his herd tried some as well, he felt frisky and curiously energetic too.


He took the "magical" red berries to a nearby monastery where the holey man believed them to be the work of evil it's self. He demanded they be destroyed in fire and Kaldi threw them into the fire. This released such a sweet thick and inviting aroma the villagers came out to see what the source of this magnificent and alluring aroma was. The beans to Kaldi's delight were quickly rescued from any future flames.


The monks experimented eventually learning how to make boiled and filtered hot Black Gold. The holy men considered coffee a gift from Allah keeping them awake during prayers and delivering prosperity for the cultivators.

Some Coffee snippets

Coffee beans were chewed raw for centuries in Ethiopia and Yemen. An excavation in the Ethiopian highlands where coffee grows wild indicates human gatherers have been eating coffee berries over a hundred thousand years. The fleshy pulp surrounding the coffee bean in Ethiopian coffee has higher sugar content. Being sweet, being nutritious, and seeds, nuts and berries must have been generally eaten by humans some speculate for over a million years.

Ugandans were noticed chewing dried coffee beans when the first explorers from Europe were searching for the origins of the Nile River. Green coffee beans were ground up and mixed with fat to macerate, then made into small balls, which were eaten by travelers on long journeys. Some say this is the first trail mix whereas the raisins.

Stories in the Southern Arabian Peninsula known as Yemen where Europeans first found the coffee plant cultivated seem to support the coffee bean being traded as early as 800 BC. Facts and many stories support trade between Yemen and Ethiopia during this time. Knowing how eating the coffee berry reacts on people, it would be logical that those early traders would attempt to trade for this item. Additionally, evidence does not support the coffee plant growing wild in Yemen but already under cultivation instead. Although, it is possible that a large bird or storm could have carried and deposited the coffee berry that far away, although not likely.

No specific historic event is remembered causing coffee export to Southern Arabia but Ethiopia did invaded Southern Arabia in 525 AD. Some speculated that coffee could have been introduced to the Arabians at this time. Many historians say coffee may have been introduced into Arabia by slave traders who raided Africa in early1000 BC.

Snippets which strongly supporting theories that coffee spread very early in the civilized world trade are coffee's affect on the Arabian people's culture, agriculture, Trade practices and old Arabic stories.
