More About National Coffee Day
NATIONAL COFFEE DAY
Coffee lovers celebrate National Coffee Day on September 29th to celebrate their love for the country's favorite beverage. If you are one of those people who cannot start their day without sipping on a cup of coffee, this is your reason to celebrate.
The smell of freshly brewed coffee in the morning is irresistible to almost everyone. Whether you love the classic Americano or prefer the trendy Flat White, make sure to have the perfect cup (or cups) of coffee today!
Coffee lovers are in luck because just two days after National Coffee Day, they can celebrate International Coffee Day on October 1st.
History of Coffee
Evidence shows that the first coffee was enjoyed in 15th century Yemen, where monks from the Sufi monasteries in Mocha first roasted beans and brewed coffee. Traders then brought the seed to Ethiopia, so that they could cultivate and farm coffee beans.

Coffee arrived in Europe by way of Venice in 1615, where it was deemed to be 'Satan's drink' due to its bitter taste. The drink, however, eventually got the approval of the Pope himself, and the first coffee house opened in Venice in 1645.
The drink became popular in North America in 1773 when Americans revolted against the British tea tax and replaced tea with coffee as their preferred drink. James Folger was one of the first people to successfully sell coffee in the 19th century. The drink also traveled across Canada where the first business to call itself a coffee house opened in Toronto in 1801.
In the 1960s people became interested in the concept of specialty coffee and Starbucks was founded in 1971. Today, the coffee industry is worth around $45 billion in the United States, and $18 billion in Canada, that's a total of $63 billion!
As the interest in good coffee grows, so do the different ways of brewing it and the appearance of independent coffee shops, where coffee connoisseurs can try the latest flavors and roasts from around the world. Professional coffee tasters are called cuppers; according to them, the perfect cup of coffee depends on its body, acidity, aroma, and flavor. This is all determined by the bean, the roast, and the brew of the coffee.
