Summary:
Located between the Great Rift Valley and the Nile, the
cloud
forests
in southwestern
Ethiopia
are the original home of Arabica, the most prevalent and superior of the two main species of
coffee
being cultivated today. Virtually unknown to European explorers, the Kafa region was essentially off-limits to foreigners well into the twentieth century, which allowed the world's original
coffee
culture to develop in virtual isolation in the
forests
where
the Kafa people continue to forage for
wild
coffee
berries. Deftly blending in the long, fascinating history of our favorite drink, award-winning author Jeff Koehler takes readers from these forest beginnings along the spectacular journey of its spread around the globe. With caf©♭s on virtually every corner of every town in the world,
coffee
has never been so popular--nor tasted so good. Yet diseases and climate change are battering production in Latin America,
where
85 percent of Arabica
grows
. As the industry tries to safeguard the species' future, breeders are returning to the original
coffee
forests
, which are under threat and swiftly shrinking.
