1. The discovery of coffee is attributed to a goat herder named Kalvin, who one day noticed that his goats were behaving unusual after consuming red berries in the forest. Tasting these berries, Kalvin experienced a feeling of joy and euphoria. He shared his find with his tribe's priest, who cooked the berries but found the taste unpleasant and threw them into the fire. However, when the berries were heated, they released a captivating fragrance, thus marking the discovery of coffee. The first tribe to use these berries in the form of sweets, mixed with fat, along the desert route, was called Oromo. Its preparation was known as "oromo", in reference to these coffee balls. This discovery in Ethiopia paved the way for the cultivation and consumption of coffee around the world.
2. Coffee's journey began in Ethiopia, crossed the Red Sea to the Arabian Peninsula and Turkey. For 300 years, Muslims protected the fertile coffee seeds and developed the IBRIC method of coffee extraction. Coffee reached Venice, Italy, where it was initially associated with sin, but was later declared a sacred drink by the Pope. In England, coffee houses became places to discuss politics and ideas, despite some social problems. Coffee consumption eventually declined in favor of tea.

3. Coffee arrived on the Island of Martinique amid difficulties and spread throughout the Antilles, including Cuba, Haiti, Mexico and Central America, from a single seed. This expansion of coffee was linked to revolutions, such as that of Haiti, which was the first free nation in America. Haiti, then a French colony, experienced a revolution when its largely black population rose up amid the French Revolution and Napoleon's rule. Haitians were important producers of sugar and coffee, but they burned down colonial plantations in their fight for independence, which left the land barren and contributed to the current situation of extreme poverty in the country.
4. The Arabica variety arrived in Colombia from Venezuela through Norte de Santander and Santander, which in colonial times were a single region. Coffee seeds were brought by the Jesuit religious communities that colonized these territories and brought coffee cultivation with them. In Boyacá, specifically in Zetaquira, coffee seeds arrived as a crop to grow bread. The religious promoted the cultivation of coffee as penance for the sins of the parishioners, which contributed to the spread of coffee in the Lengupá valley.
