International Coffee Day is celebrated each year on the 1st of October. Coffee in the morning; coffee and catch up with old friends; going for coffee with your new hot date – we drink coffee morning, day and night with friends, business associates, and lovers. You have only to walk down the nearest high street and note the number of coffee chains to realize the extent of our love affair with our favorite caffeinated beverage.

Whether you favor espresso, americanos, lattes, or cappuccinos; iced, decaf, instant, or filter – Coffee Day is the day to savor and appreciate your beverage, and maybe even pick one up for free at certain chains in the USA.
History of International Coffee Day
Coffee Day also marks the long tradition of the drink. The properties of coffee beans are thought to have first been discovered in Ethiopia. The beans are the pits seen in the coffee berry or cherry. The story goes that a 9th-century goat herder noticed their stimulating effects on his goats and began experimenting. Coffee drinking was originally popularized in the Arab world from around the 15th century. Then spreading across Asia then to Italy and across Europe and to the Americas – and finally to your coffee cup.
