A Brief History of Coffee
Coffee has more or less become a necessity in our daily lives. Whether it’s to get you up in the morning, pass the time, talk with a potential client, or as a weird way to end the day, coffee is, and will always be there for you, your partner, your parents, maybe even your kids if that’s how you roll.

Humans are the top species on the planet not because we have the strongest bite, the biggest muscles, or the ability to shoot electricity out from our bodies.

An Introduction to Coffee Beans
When people say “beans,” the first thought would probably be the stuff you see in chili con carne, or an animal’s paw pads (toe beans!).

Bred and brewed for more than thousands of years, coffee beans have been around, probably keeping random herbivores and birds awake so that they don’t turn into somebody’s next meal.
