Coffee is a beverage prepared from roasted coffee beans. Darkly coloured, bitter, and slightly acidic, coffee stimulates humans primarily due to its caffeine content. It has the highest sales in the world market for hot drinks. [2]
The seeds of the coffee plant's fruits are separated to produce unroasted green coffee beans. The beans are roasted and then ground into fine particles, typically steeped in hot water before being filtered out, making a cup of coffee. It is usually served hot, although chilled or iced coffee is standard. Coffee can be prepared and presented in various ways (e.g., espresso, French press, caffè latte, or already-brewed canned coffee). Sugar substitutes, milk, and cream are often added to mask the bitter taste or enhance the flavour.

Though coffee is now a global commodity, it has a long history tied closely to food traditions around the Red Sea. The earliest credible evidence of coffee drinking as the modern beverage appears in modern-day Yemen in southern Arabia in the middle of the 15th century in Sufi shrines, where coffee seeds were first roasted and brewed like how it is now prepared for drinking. [3] The coffee beans were procured by the Yemenis from the Ethiopian Highlands via coastal Somali intermediaries, and cultivated in Yemen. By the 16th century, the drink had reached the rest of the Middle East and North Africa, later spreading to Europe.

The two most commonly grown coffee bean types are C. arabica and C. Robusta. [4] Coffee plants are cultivated in over 70 countries, primarily in the equatorial regions of the Americas, Southeast Asia, the Indian subcontinent, and Africa. Brazil was the world's top producer of coffee beans as of 2018, accounting for 35% of global production. Coffee that hasn't been roasted is traded as an agricultural good. Even though coffee sales are valued at billions of dollars globally, a disproportionate number of coffee producers are impoverished. Critics of the coffee industry have also pointed to its negative impact on the environment, the clearing of land for coffee growing, and water use.
Thanks to all.
