There is nothing quite like the aroma and taste of freshly brewed coffee, and the pleasure it brings us whilst and after drinking it. This is probably why it is the most widely consumed beverage in the world today.

History of Coffee
It is believed that coffee dates back to 800 b.C.; however the coffee tree was first discovered in an Ethiopian region in Africa named Kaffa. From here it spread to Yemen, Egypt and Arabia and quickly developed into every day life.
By the 15th century it was being sold in Europe and soon became one of the most popular beverages in the west for the rich people. The first coffee house 'Cafe' was opened in Venice in 1645, and later the coffee house became popular in other european countries.

Effects of Coffee
There has been some bad press about the effects of drinking too much coffee, but coffee is one of the most widely researched ingredients, and results have shown that when drank in moderation (roughly four to five regular cups a day) that it is perfectly safe for healthy adults. Pregnant women are advised to lower their intake of caffeine whilst pregnant to two regular cups, this includes coffee, tea, cola drinks, energy drinks and chocolate.
Coffee is a stimulant, which dilutes the blood vessels and pumps blood faster through the body, making both the brain and the heart work faster. However Caffeine which is found in Coffee beans contains antioxidants which are important to the body because they are capable of fighting free radicals which cause cell destruction in the body.
