Coffee not only has a rich and beautiful scent that is enjoyed all over the world, but it also has a rich history that takes place all over the world. There is so much to this history that we have decided to split it into at least two episodes; if not three.

This episode will focus more on the discovery of the Coffee plant, or at least the seed. Before the legend of Kaldi people who came into contact with the plant had no idea how to truly pull all the best parts from the berries. But was the legend of Kaldi true? We explore this, and many other legends that surround the world's introduction to coffee in the way we know it today.

We discuss the history of Coffee all the way to colonization. Because colonization sparks another side to the history of coffee we will focus more on that in the next installation of this series.
