Brewing History and Coffee Delights: Afsaal Bush Cafe’s South African Coffee Journey 

Coffee is more than just a beverage; it’s a cultural phenomenon with a rich history and an intricate journey to our cups. At Afsaal Bush Cafe, we understand the significance of this delightful drink, and we’re excited to share some fascinating coffee facts and our own unique South African coffee story. 

The Roots of Coffee 

Coffee is believed to have been discovered in Ethiopia, where legend has it that a goatherd named Kaldi observed his goats’ newfound vitality after eating the berries from a particular shrub. Today, coffee’s influence spans the globe, and it has a unique presence in South Africa. 

South African Coffee Culture 

South Africa’s coffee culture has evolved over the years. In urban hubs like Cape Town and Johannesburg, you’ll find a thriving coffee scene with a variety of coffee shops, roasteries, and artisanal cafes. South Africans have developed a discerning palate for this beloved brew, and the demand for high-quality coffee is on the rise.
