CoffeCoffee is a  drink prepared from roasted coffee beans, which are the seeds of "berries“ from the Coffea plant. Coffee plants are cultivated in over 70 countries, primarily in the equatorial regions of the Americas, Southeast Asia, India and Africa. The two most commonly grown are the highly regarded arabica , and the less sophisticated but stronger and more hardy robusta . The latter is resistant to the coffee leaf rust, Hemileia vastatrix, but has a more bitter taste. 

Ethymology

The first reference to coffee in the English language is in the form chaona, dated to 1598 and understood to be a misprint of chaoua  (equivalent, in the orthography of the time, to chaova). This term and "coffee" both derive from the Ottoman Turkish kahve, possibly by way of the Italian caffè.
