The origins of coffee are shrouded in mystery and are recounted with quaint anecdotes, myths and conjuctures. Its countless narrators all agree on one thing: its provenance. In fact, the various versions all state that the coffee shrub first took root in the Kaffa region in the highlands of today’s Ethiopia.
The word “coffee”, which was inspired by its energy giving properties, derives from the Arab word qahwa, meaning a plant based beverage.
