Ethiopia the birth place of coffee

Ethiopia is the cradle of mankind: birth place of coffee and books among many other civilization. It is where the endogenous coffee berry was first discovered and where coffee has been cultivated for centuries. Ethiopians have been growing, roasting and cultivating coffee nearly for about a millennium.

There is no place on earth more suited for growing coffee than the mountains and plateaus, the rich volcanic soils, the temperate climate and the unspoiled forest which create a unique environment where coffee trees thrive and diversified. And no people on earth are committed for nurturing the plants that produce the beverage cherish on the world. Ethiopia is inviting all people involved in the cultivation, processing, sail and consumption of its coffee to share in equal distribution of its bounty.

The Ethiopian trade market licencing initiative is the process that honors Ethiopia's commitment to providing the world with the best environmentally respectful coffee in the world.Ethiopia consumes around half the coffee it produces its diverse population of small farmers provide coffee with their own and unique techniques of cultivating coffee. There is to roast and to grind it in a traditional way. There is also consumption of coffee hull, or the outer cover of the dry buni coffee plus on different celebrations and religious ceremonies the people of habesha (Ethiopians) drink coffee.

Ethiopian Highlands

The Ethiopian highlands are also considered as the roof of Africa. 30 million years ago these Ethiopian different highlands were a single plateau at the size of current day Spain. The continued erosion of this highland created many highlands that separated by canyons. Ethiopian highlands supported different animals found nowhere else in the world. The Gelada Baboon for example is one of the endemic animal in those Ethiopian highlands and has a brain capable of living in vertical cliffs in which a single slip could cause death.

Those Geladas are unique on only one of those plateau and they are covered by a large fur. They are the highest dwelling primates on the earth ranging up to 4500 meters. Geladas are the most sociable monkeys on the earth and they live in many numbers. In these highlands Ethiopian endemic animal species, Gelada Baboons share a place of grazing antelopes but Geladas are the only peculiar animal species up here in the roof of Africa.
