Once Upon a Coffee

Every great story begins with once upon a coffee.

Roasted beans are brewed to create coffee, the seeds of berries from specific Coffea species. Once ripe, coffee berries are plucked, processed and dried. Dried coffee seeds are referred to as beans. These beans are roasted at different temperatures.

Coffee grown worldwide can trace its heritage back centuries to the ancient coffee forests on the Ethiopian plateau. There, legend says the goat herder Kaldi first discovered the potential of these beloved beans. The story goes that that Kaldi discovered coffee after he noticed that after eating the berries from a certain tree, his goats became so energetic that they did not want to sleep at night.
