Coffee was at first not well received. In 1511, it was forbidden for its stimulating effect by conservative, orthodox imams at a theological court in Mecca. However, the popularity of the drink led these bans to be overturned in 1524 by an order of the Ottoman Turkish Sultan Selim I. In Cairo, Egypt, a similar ban was instituted in 1532, and the coffeehouses and warehouses containing coffee beans were sacked.[2] Similarly, coffee was banned by the Ethiopian Orthodox Church some time before the 17th century, along with smoking tobacco and chewing the mild stimulant khat, as it was seen as a Muslim and pagan practice.[3] However, in the second half of the 19th century, Ethiopian attitudes softened towards coffee drinking, and its consumption spread rapidly between 1880 and 1886; according to Richard Pankhurst, "this was largely due to [Emperor] Menilek, who himself drank it, and to Abuna Matewos who did much to dispel the belief of the clergy that it was a Muslim drink."[4]

"In One's (Coffee) Cups," an article in the Nepal Times, April 6, 2007, describes and evaluates about a dozen coffee shops, several of which have more than a single location. They include a representative of foreign chains, Illy, which is headquartered in Italy and offers shade-grown coffee; a coffee seller (Singma Food Court) that offers both Nepali coffee beans and, for a higher price, Starbucks; and another (Himalayan Java) whose "American-style acidic, bitter roast might take some getting used to." Various coffees, desserts and other foods, wi-fi access (free or otherwise), reading materials, and people-watching opportunities get noted in the article. For more, see here.
Coffee reduces diabetes risk among pre-diabetics by over 60%, according to a new study from the University of California at San Diego. The study is the first to expand evidence on diabetes risk reduction to those already glucose intolerant, a precursor to full-blown diabetes.
