In general, the form of a coffee plant consists of leaves, stems, roots, flowers, fruits and seeds. The coffee we drink is extracted from the seeds of the coffee plant, and the taste can vary depending on where it is grown and how to cultivate it.
It started when a goat breeders noticed that goats were more active after eating coffee berries. Coffee became a popular drink and widespread from the Middle East to Europe.
In 1683, a drink called Wiener Melange, a mixture of coffee and milk appeared, similar to the cappuccino we know today. In many countries, coffee has become a popular drink consumed during conversations and discussions.
Coffee contains caffeine, which stimulates the nervous system, increasing the concentration to adapt to the afternoon and improve energy to return to work.

The journey of coffee begins in the Middle East, where Arab countries started exporting coffee beans to other countries.
Resulting the monopoly on coffee beans extends to many countries. Competition is fierce among many countries to dominate the coffee bean trade.

One of flagship coffee in the world is Arabica because it’s unique taste.
Growing Arabica requires loose, fertile soils rich in organic matter at altitudes of 700 to 1500 meters above sea level, with annual rainfall of about 1000-2000 mm/year and an average temperature of 21-28 degrees Celsius.
Indonesia is located on the equator, where there is a lot of rainfall and sunshine all year round.
Geographical advantages make Indonesia the third largest coffee bean producer in the world after Vietnam and Brazil. Besides Arabica, Robusta is still found in Vietnam, Indonesia and Uganda.

In the 18th century, Java became the largest supplier of coffee beans in Europe.
At the time Dutch colonized Indonesia, they made a compulsory cultivation system for growing coffee, sugar and valuable plants for European exports.
During this period, many coffee plantations are scattered across West Java, one of which is the Burangrang district, cared for by local farmers, especially Arabica.
This Arabica has evolved into the best variety prevalent in coffee shops in West Java and Jakarta.

Sherlock Holmes, consulting detective, was created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in his 1887 novella, A Study in Scarlet. Holmes would go on to star in four novels and more than fifty short stories, as well as countless plays, films, TV shows, and witless jokes and puns.
Doyle didn't start out as an author. He was a trained ophthalmologist, and tried to open a practice in London at 2 Upper Wimpole Street (then known as Devonshire Place). It was a failure, but he used the office and his ample free time to begin his work on the Sherlock stories.
Dr Watson is introduced in A Study in Scarlet as having retired from the army and living a "comfortless, meaningless existence" in a London hotel on Strand. Doyle doesn't mention anywhere by name, but the Savoy, opened in 1889, gives us a good idea of what he had in mind.
Desperate for new lodgings, and a little excitement in life, Watson visits the Criterion Restaurant, overlooking Piccadilly Circus, and runs into an old friend who soon introduces him to Sherlock Holmes. Today, you can still visit The Criterion, it's just behind the fountain.
Holmes' home. When Doyle first wrote the stories this address didn't exist. In the late 1920s Baker Street was extended and numbers 219–229 came to be occupied by the Abbey National Building Society. For many years, they employed a secretary to answer post addressed to Mr Holmes.
It might be a fictional address, but 221B has caused some very real legal arguments. In 1990, the Sherlock Holmes Museum changed the numbers of their address from 229 to 221B. This caused some postal confusion, but since the building society moved in 2005, no-one's complained.
In any case, the Georgian townhouse that the museum occupies does actually resemble Holmes' house as described in the novels. Inside, they've even filled it with props, period furniture, and costumed staff.
If you think you recognise this address, that's because its the 221B Baker Street as seen in the BBC's spellbinding series, Sherlock. Attentive observers will note that Speedy's is also a real cafe, so why not head inside and have a cup of tea.
4 Whitehall Place was the original site of Scotland Yard, headquarters of the Metropolitan Police and sometime rivals of Sherlock Holmes. The headquarters has since moved but the name has stuck. What 'Wall Street' is to banking, 'Scotland Yard' is to 'The Met'.
The Royal Opera House on Bow Street appears in many of the Holmes stories. This stunning glass atrium was built in 1860 as a flower market. It's now known as the Paul Hamlyn Hall, and houses the Opera's champagne bar and restaurant.
Finally, in The Adventure of the Noble Bachelor, Holmes tracks down Francis Hay Moulton, "small, wiry, sunburnt man, clean-shaven, with a sharp face and alert manner", to this hotel, now a pub named in his honor. Time to put your feet up. Consider it a good day's sleuthing.

Many artists toil their entire life without much recognition. But, through a combination of luck, graft, and inspiration, some attain near legendary status. Many in this latter group have had their work immortalized in museums dedicated solely to one artist.
Scroll on to discover the cream of the crop, from Bourdelle to Miro, who have been afforded the honor of a museum of their own...
Antoine Bourdelle was a prolific French sculptor and an important figure in Art Deco. As a student of Auguste Rodin and a teacher of Giacometti and Henri Matisse, he formed the link between the 19th and 20th centuries. His old studio has since become the Musée Bourdelle.
Located at 18, rue Antoine Bourdelle, in the 15th arrondissement of Paris, the Musée provides an example of Parisian ateliers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It holds more than 500 works including marble, plaster, and bronze statues, paintings, pastels, and sketches.
The artist Salvador Dalí was born in the town of Figueres, in Catalonia, Spain. The Dalí Theatre and Museum is dedicated to the work of this singular Surrealist. It is also his final resting place - Dalí is buried in a crypt below the theatre's stage.
The heart of the museum is the town's theatre that Dalí visited as a child. It was where one of the first public exhibitions of Dalí's art was held. The theatre was destroyed in the Spanish Civil War, and in 1969 was rebuilt as a monument to the town's most famous son.
Since opening in 1973, the Van Gogh Museum has welcomed millions of visitors to see the outstanding art of its namesake. The museum holds, without a doubt, the best collection of his works in the world, many of which had never left the Gogh family.
Inside, rooms are ordered by theme and location. Telling a story of his movement across Europe, and through genres and styles of art. The building itself is the work of another Dutch master of art, Gerrit Rietveld, one of the principle artists of De Stijl.
Frida Kahlo was born in this house, La Casa Azul, in the Colonia del Carmen neighborhood of Coyoacán in Mexico City - and later, would die here. In 1957, her former husband Diego Rivera donated the home and its contents in order to turn it into a museum in Kahlo's honour.
The house is preserved much like it appeared in the 1950s, filled with Kahlo and Rivera's collection of contemporary Mexican folk art, pre-Hispanic artefacts, and personal effects, including the wheelchair and adjustable easel Kahlo used in her final years.
Oslo's Munch Museum opened its doors in 1963 to commemorate what would have been Munch's 100th birthday. Its collection consists of works and articles by Edvard Munch, which he donated to the municipality of Oslo upon his death, as well as art by his sister, Inger Munch.
In 2008, the City of Oslo promoted an architectural competition for a new Munch Museum in the area of Bjørvika. After some politics, construction started in 2015, and the new Munch/Stenersen museum is expected to be open by the end of 2020.
The Fundació Joan Miró crowns the hill of Montjuïc in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. The building's rough, breton-brut concrete forms, designed by Josep Lluís Sert, make a lasting impression, and seem to protect the delicate, colourful artworks within.
Miro died in 1975, and the building was expanded in 1986 to create an auditorium as well as a library containing some of the 10,000 items in the Foundation and Miró's collection. It also hosts a space named Espai 13, dedicated to the work of young, experimental artists.
