Yup you heard right, coffee was first discovered by a goat! The myth is a young Ethiopian goat herder by the name of Kaldi in the 9th-century noticed his goats acting strange, that they became more energetic, and began to dance when they ate the cherries from the coffee tree, so he tried it for himself. His exhilaration prompted him to bring the berries to a holy man in a nearby monastery, but the holy man disapproved of their use and threw them into a fire, from which an enticing aroma billowed. The roasted beans were quickly raked from the embers, ground up, and dissolved in hot water, yielding the world's first cup of coffee.
