Kaldi


Explanation:
Reference:

Legend tells us of an Ethiopian goat-herder by the name ***Kaldi*** who first discovered the mythical properties of the coffee bean. He was so amazed at the dancing of his goats after they had eaten some berries from a nearby shrub that he decided to try some of the ripe, red “cherries’ for himself. The pleasant, stimulating effect they produced led him to share his discovery with the local monks. Coffee quickly evolved into a ceremonial religious drink, keeping monks awake during their long hours of prayer.
