But not that long ago, most of the world had never heard of coffee at all. In this video, we trace the origins of the plant in the Ethiopian mountains, and follow the seismic explosion that would take place after it arrived abroad. In just a few short centuries, coffee changed the course of history. Rewrote our social structure, gave us countless important institutions and led to the rise and fall of Kingdoms.
