He noticed they were eating the bright red berries that grew on the green bushes nearby.Kaldi tried a few himself, and soon felt a novel sense of elation. He filled his pockets with the berries and ran home to announce his discovery to his wife. ‘They are heaven-sent,’ she declared. ‘You must take them to the Monks in the monastery.Kaldi presented the chief Monk with a handful of berries and related his discovery of their miraculous effect. ‘Devil’s work! ’ exclaimed the monk, and hurled the berries in the fire.Within minutes the monastery filled with the heavenly aroma of roasting (coffee) beans, and the other monks gathered to investigate. The beans were raked from the fire and crushed to extinguish the embers. The Monk ordered the grains to be placed in the ewer and covered with hot water to preserve their goodness. That night the monks sat up drinking the rich and fragrant brew, and from that day vowed they would drink it daily to keep them awake during their long, nocturnal devotions.
