According to one legend a sheep herder in Caffa Ethiopia was the first to discover the effects of coffee. While herding his cattle he found his cattle eating some red cherries. Subsequently he also found out that after eating these red cherries his goats started becoming hyper active. Intrigued he tried on these cherries himself and soon he was as hyperactive as his herd. The monks in the area scolded him calling the red cherries the devil's fruit and shouted at him for indulging himself. However soon the monks realized that the shiny green plant that gave of the fruit was the very thing that the monks needed to stay awake for their prayers.

Also there is another legend that tells us that coffee was actually called mocha. It was discovered in Arabia. An Arabian sheik called Omar was banished in the desert with all his followers. There they were to die of starvation. At an act of desperation Omar made one of his friends collect fruit from an unknown plant and boil them to prepare a meal. This meal not only saved the entire exile party but also its survival gave a religious significance to the nearest town that went by the name of mocha where they settled. After this event, the plant was called mocha.
In early times coffee was used more than just a drink. It was originally found in Ethiopia but it was later transplanted in Arabia and soon Arabia monopolized the coffee industry. Coffee beans were wrapped along with animal fat and eaten. This was an excellent source of nutrition to the raiding armies. The caffeine also kept them active. This was also their only source of nutrition. History tells us that Turks were the first country to adopt it as a drink. Arabia considered coffee a delicacy and guarded it with utmost secrecy. That is why it was introduced much later to countries that were outside Arabia.
At one point of time coffee was being considered by some Christians to be the "devil's drink" and there was a small progressing demand that it be banned. However, Pope Vincent III tasted coffee and found it so delicious that he refused to banish it. Thereby, coffee became a devil's temptation free drink as well.
Today coffee is enjoyed world wide by millions of people across the world. Coffee and its various forms are highly enjoyed by people from all countries. It is highly regarded as a morning drink and thousands of people are hooked on to the caffeine for its properties that help them stay awake and work for long hours.
