The shepherd of the monastery goats named Claudi from Mount Sable in Yemen was the first to notice the arousing effect of coffee on the nervous system. The goats, which consumed fallen fruits from coffee bushes during the day, did not fall asleep at night and bleated. The monks wondered for a long time what caused this, but noticed that after eating these fruits, bleaching was the result of consuming coffee fruits.
These shrubs were brought from the Ethiopian province with the center in Kaffa. In honor of this province, Kaffa named the plant coffee, which in Arabic means to be strong, active, etc. Since then, there has been debate about whether coffee is useful or harmful.
In the 17th century, the Muslim religion banned it. A similar ban existed for Ethiopian Christians. After much debate over whether coffee was useful or harmful, a compromise was reached between Muslims in Mecca - coffee was declared an undesirable beverage.
The first cafe was opened in the Turkish capital. The first cafeterias were opened in London in 1652, in Marseilles in 1671, and a year later in Paris.
Nowadays, for those suffering from hypertension, chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer disease, kidney stones and chronic nephritis, diabetes, gout, etc., it is not recommended to consume coffee.
In more recent studies, coffee is not so anathematized, as long as it is consumed in moderation and prepared from quality varieties.
Yemeni Mokko coffee is considered to be of the highest quality. Brazilian and Colombian coffee also have excellent qualities, especially from the varieties Mole, Red Circle and Rio.
Among the lower quality are Liberian and Congolese coffee. Congolese Robusta coffee is used to make instant nescafe and contains the most caffeine. In Bulgaria, unfortunately, Robusta coffee is the most widely used due to its low price.
