Coffee is a drink prepared from roasted coffee beans. Darkly colored, bitter, and
slightly acidic, coffee has a stimulating effect on humans, primarily due to its caffeine content. It
has the highest sales in the world market for hot drinks.
Seeds of the Coffea plant's fruits are separated to produce unroasted green coffee beans. The
beans are roasted and then ground into fine particles that are typically steeped in hot water before
being filtered out, producing a cup of coffee. It is usually served hot, although chilled or iced
coffee is common. Coffee can be prepared and presented in a variety of ways
(e.g., espresso, French press, caffè latte, or already-brewed canned coffee). Sugar, sugar
substitutes, milk, and cream are often used to mask the bitter taste or enhance the flavor.
Though coffee is now a global commodity, it has a long history tied closely to food traditions
around the Red Sea. The earliest credible evidence of coffee drinking in the form of the modern
beverage appears in modern-day Yemen from the mid-15th century in Sufi shrines, where coffee
seeds were first roasted and brewed in a manner similar to current methods. The Yemenis
procured the coffee beans from the Ethiopian Highlands via coastal Somali intermediaries and
began cultivation. By the 16th century, the drink had reached the rest of the Middle East and
North Africa, later spreading to Europe. In the 20th century, coffee became a global commodity,
creating different coffee cultures around the world.
The two most commonly grown coffee bean types are C. arabica and C. robusta.[4] Coffee plants
are cultivated in over 70 countries, primarily in the equatorial regions of the Americas, Southeast
Asia, the Indian subcontinent, and Africa. As of 2018, Brazil was the leading grower of coffee
beans, producing 35% of the world's total. Green, unroasted coffee is traded as an agricultural
commodity. Despite sales of coffee reaching billions of dollars worldwide, farmers producing
coffee beans disproportionately live in poverty. Critics of the coffee industry have also pointed to
its negative impact on the environment and the clearing of land for coffee-growing and water
use.
Coffee production in India is dominated in the hill tracts of South Indian states, with Karnataka accounting
for 71% (Kodagu alone produces 33% of India's coffee), followed by Kerala with 21% and Tamil Nadu (5% of
overall production with 8,200 tonnes). Indian coffee is said to be the finest coffee grown in the shade rather
than direct sunlight anywhere in the world.[1] There are about 250,000 coffee growers in the country; 98% of
them are small growers. Coffee is grown in three regions of India with Karnataka, Kerala and Tamil Nadu
forming the traditional coffee growing region, followed by the new areas developed in the non-traditional areas
of Andhra Pradesh and Odisha in the eastern coast of the country and with a third region comprising the states
of Assam, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Tripura, Nagaland and Arunachal Pradesh of Northeastern India,
popularly known as "Seven Sister States of India
HISTORY OF COFFEE
Coffee growing has a long history that is attributed first to Ethiopia and then
to Arabia (Yemen). The earliest history is traced to 875 AD according to the Bibliotheque
Nationale in Paris, and the original source to Ethiopia (Abyssinia) from where it was brought to
Arabia in the 15th century.[7]
In the Indian context, coffee growing started with an Indian Muslim saint, Baba Budan,[2][8] who,
while returning from a pilgrimage to Mecca, smuggled seven coffee beans (by hiding them in his
beard) from Yemen to Mysore in India.[7] He planted them on the Chandra Drona Giri (1,829
metres (6,001 ft))('Giri' means "hill") in Chikkamagaluru district. It was considered an illegal act
to take out green coffee seed out of Arabia. As number seven is a sacrosanct number in Islamic
religion, the saint's act of carrying seven coffee beans was considered a religious act. [6] This was
the beginning of coffee industry in India, and in particular, in the then state of Mysore, now part
of the Karnataka State. This was an achievement of considerable bravery of Baba Budan
considering the fact that Arabs had exercised strict control over its export to other countries by
not permitting coffee beans to be exported in any form other than as in a roasted or boiled form
to prevent germination.
Systematic cultivation soon followed Baba Budan's first planting of the seeds, in 1670, mostly by
private native Indian owners and the first plantation was established in 1840 around Baba Budan
Giri and its surrounding hills in Karnataka. It spread to other areas of Wayanad (now part of
Kerala), the Shevaroys and Nilgiris in Tamil Nadu. With British colonial presence taking strong
roots in India in the mid 19th century, coffee plantations flourished for export. The culture of
coffee thus spread to South India rapidly.
Over the last 50 years, coffee production in India has grown by over 15 percent.[10] From 1991,
economic liberalisation took place in India, and the industry took full advantage of this and
cheaper labour costs of production. In 1993, a monumental Internal Sales Quota (ISQ) made the
first step in liberalising the coffee industry by entitling coffee farmers to sell 30% of their
production within India. This was further amended in 1994 when the Free Sale Quota (FSQ)
permitted large and small scale growers to sell between 70% and 100% of their coffee either
domestically or internationally. A final amendment in September 1996 saw the liberalisation of
coffee for all growers in the country and a freedom to sell their produce wherever they wished
PRODUCTION
As in Ceylon, coffee production in India declined rapidly from the 1870s and was massively
outgrown by the emerging tea industry. The devastating coffee rust affected the output of coffee
to the point that the costs of production saw coffee plantations in many parts replaced with tea
plantations.[12] However, the coffee industry was not as affected by this disease as in Ceylon, and
although overshadowed in scale by the tea industry, India was still one of the strongholds of
coffee production in the British Empire along with British Guiana. In the period 1910–12, the
area under coffee plantation was reported to be 203,134 acres (82,205 ha) in the southern states,
and was mostly exported to England.
In the 1940s, Indian filter coffee, a sweet milky coffee made from dark roasted coffee beans
(70%–80%) and chicory (20%–30%) became a commercial success. It was especially popular in
the southern states of Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Kerala and Tamil Nadu. The most commonly
used coffee beans are Arabica and Robusta grown in the hills
of Karnataka (Kodagu, Chikkamagaluru and Hassan), Kerala (Malabar region) and Tamil
Nadu (Nilgiris District, Yercaud and Kodaikanal).
