Fun folklore fact! Kaldi is an ancient Ethopian goatherd who is typically credited with discovering coffee. The legends say he saw his goats eating some strange berries and the goats would be full of energy afterward. So Kaldi took some of the berries to a monk, who said no we do not eat this nonsense. The monk threw the berries into a fire, but a lovely aroma filled the air. So they got the berries out of the ashes, ground them up, and brewed them into the world's first cup of coffee! To this day there are some coffee companies and distributors that name themselves after Kaldi.
