Company Information

Kaldi, a goatherd in the Ethiopian highlands, was the first to discover coffee after noticing that his goats, upon eating some mysterious berries from a certain tree became spirited and sleepless at night.
Kaldi reported enthusiastically about his findings to an abbot in a local monastery, who made a drink with the berries and discovered energizing sensations from this mysterious drink. Soon the invigorating effects of the powerful fruit began to spread. With time, it reached the Arabian Peninsula and this is where the journey begins.
The Arabs started cultivating this precious fruit and also trading it. With the passing of time, coffee was getting known on the Yemeni district of Arabia, Persia, Egypt, Syria and Turkey.
Coffee was not only drank in homes but also in many public coffee houses; called \"qahveh khaneh\", which began to appear in cities across the Near East. The popularity of the coffee houses was growing for all kinds of social activity. Not only did they drink coffee and engage in conversation, but they also listened to music, watched performers, played chess and kept current on the news of the day. In fact, they quickly became such an important center for the exchange of information that the coffee houses were often referred to as \'Schools of the Wise.\'
