Where is the hometown of coffee?

It is also said that a coffee forest was accidentally destroyed by a wildfire, and the smell of barbecue coffee attracted the attention of surrounding residents. Local aborigines often grind the fruits of coffee trees and knead them with animal fat to make many ball-shaped balls. These indigenous tribes regard these coffee balls as precious food for soldiers who are about to go out to battle.

Growth habits of Coffee trees

Coffee trees like mild temperatures during the day and less than two hours of direct sunshine, so if there is a lack of afternoon showers or fog to report every day, local farmers have to plant many taller trees in the coffee garden for shade. At night, you need an environment of about 10 degrees Celsius but the temperature should not be too low, because too warm will make the coffee berries grow too fast. Can not produce small and strong hard high-quality coffee beans, if it is too cold to frost, it will freeze to death.

This area is also known as the coffee belt.
