The first known reference to coffee in Arabic writings came from an Islamic physician, Abu Bakr Muhammad ibn Zakariya El Razi (known as as ‘Rhazes’).
Since its discovery, coffee has provoked passion and fear. From its early days in the Islamic world, the popularity of coffee was controversial.
Many were suspicious of both the effects that caffeine had on those who consume coffee and the gatherings in which it was consumed. Coffee shops encourage people to meet and tackle local problems.
Coffeehouses offered an antidote to the rowdy gin and beer business, both in decor and in atmosphere. They had bookshelves, mirrors and good furniture and the mood was clam and disciplined.
Today, coffee plants are cultivated in more than 50 countries, resulting in a wide variety of coffee, each with its own combination of flavor, body and aroma.
Coffee is very popular in the United States and is also an international drink which is appreciated the world over. These are the coffee benefits present in every cup. It is very difficult to determine which beverage garners more votes with a global audience since each drink has its own fiercely loyal fan following.
