The Origin and spread of Coffee Bean

Origin editor

The spread of coffee beans originated in Ethiopia, about 850 in the Christian era. It then spread throughout the Arabian Peninsula, and coffee was not really documented until the 900th year of the Christian era. At that time, the Yemenis carefully guarded the coffee in order to prohibit the outflow of coffee. However, some coffee saplings are smuggled to the Netherlands and planted in greenhouses.

It was only in 1723 that coffee was grown in America.

South America now handles almost 45% of the world's coffee bean exports, most of which come from Brazil.
