BRAZIL BOURBON COFFEE Coffee lovers owe a lot to Kaldi, the Ethiopian goat herder, and to the Monks of Ethiopia for processing the red cherry beans into what we know now as coffee. Coffee was said to be first taken as tea, which was used as stimulant by the monks to keep them awake in their prayer time. It was in Turkey where coffee was first roasted over open fire. The roasted beans are then crushed and boiled to produce a stimulating beverage. From then on, this coffee has traveled far and touched many fertile soils including that of Brazil. Brazil is the biggest producer of coffee in South America.
Brazil produces 80% Arabican coffee and has a 35% share in the world market.
