Coffee was discovered around 850 A.D. in upper [[Egypt]] by a goat herder named Khaldi. One night, Khaldi's goats did not return home. When he found his goats, Khaldi saw them dancing around a shrub with red berries (coffee beans). After Khaldi tried some of the berries, he started to dance too. Khaldi spoke with some monks who used the berries to make a drink and coffee was born. | Coffee was discovered around 850 A.D. in upper [[Egypt]] by a goat herder named Khaldi.
