Domesticated in Ethiopia in pre-biblical times, coffee is a plant, the roasted and grinding beans of which may be used to make a stimulating, caffeine-containing, beverage.

Coffee reached Europe in the 17th century AD, when traders from the East brought it to Venice. Soon afterwards, coffeehouses began to spring up across Europe. Coffee was most widely embraced in England over the next two centuries. [1] Today, Brazil exports more coffee than any other nation. [2]

Tim Horton's

Tim Horton's is the most popular coffee shop in Canada. In 1995 Tim Horton's allowed Wendy's International to purchase its operations, allowing the Canadian Coffee chain greater access to the United States. Currently there are over 300 stores in the United States, 2637 stores in Canada, and one at Kandahar Airfield in Afghanistan [3]. American operations are "found in Michigan, Maine, Connecticut, Ohio, West Virginia, Kentucky, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Massachusetts and New York"; expansion is planned in these core markets.

Double Double

A double double is a cup of coffee containing two cream and two sugar; regular means one of each, and black indicates that the coffee is sans both.
