“What goes best with a cup of coffee? Another cup”.
– Henry Rollins

It is really a very versatile drink that suits most palates.

Here is an important fact I found, that puts the glamorous light on the humble origins of this famous drink

Legend has it that 9th-century goat herders noticed the effect caffeine had on their goats, who appeared to “dance” after eating the fruit of the Coffea plant. A local monk then made a drink with the produce and found that it kept him awake at night, thus the original cup of coffee was born

Fascinating, Isn’t it…

Coffee produces Caffeine, which acts as a stimulant to your central nervous system and when it reaches your brain you noticeably feel alert, less tired, and more vibrant.

So,

What is Coffee

It is a brewed drink prepared from roasted coffee beans, the seeds of berries from certain flowering plants in the Coffea genus. From its fruit, the seeds are separated to produce a stable and a raw product – unroasted green coffee. The seeds are then roasted, a process which transforms them into a consumable product: roasted coffee, which is then grounded into fine particles that are typically steeped in hot water before being filtered out, producing a cup for you.
