Coffee is a drink from the steeped coffee beans that have been roasted and mashed into powder. Coffee is one of the world's most cultivated commodities in more than 50 countries. There are two common coffee tree groups namely Robusta Coffee (Coffea canephora) and Arabica Coffee (Coffea arabica).
The word coffee itself originally comes from Arabic: قهوة qahwah which means strength, because at first coffee is used as a high-energy food. The word qahwah again changed into kahveh which comes from the Turkey language and then changed again into koffie in Dutch. The use of the word coffee is immediately absorbed into Indonesian into a known coffee word today.
History notes that the discovery of coffee as a nutritious and energized drink was first discovered by the Etopic Nation on the African Continent about 3000 years ago. The invention of coffee itself happened by accident when a shepherd named Khalid an Abbyssinia observed her flock of herding goat that remained awake even after sunset, after eating a berry. He also tried to cook and eat it.
