How many types of coffee can you serve in a bar?
It’s very early, it’s cold, and you have a long day ahead of you; the solution: a good cup of coffee. But do you know the different types of coffee you can order?
Coffee is a drink that makes you face the day with more enthusiasm, either first thing in the morning so that the day does not become difficult for you or after eating to fight against sleep and be able to continue with your tasks. But also, for many people, coffee is more than a stimulant, it is a hobby, a delight to spend your time and share with your loved ones.
Coffee is a drink that is extracted from ground and roasted beans from the berries of the coffee plant. Its origin is attributed to the high forests of Ethiopia, where this plant grows wild and where the inhabitants of these lands began to consume it mainly due to its stimulating qualities. These stimulating qualities are provided by the high concentration of caffeine that have these fruits. Therefore, when we drink coffee, we feel more awake and active.
