Coffee was first discovered growing wild in Ethiopia (East
Africa) over 1,000 years ago. The Ethiopia Yirgacheffe we
sell today is a close relative to those early trees. At
first, coffee cherries were eaten with animal fat as food.
Over time, people learned to roast, grind, brew and drink
the coffee bean inside the cherry. Once coffee was enjoyed
as a beverage, traders spread its cultivation and use around
the world.
