Who knows the story about' coffee' and some coffee stories?
One of the most romantic stories about coffee is about Gabriel Matthew de Klee, a French naval officer working in Martinique. When he was leaving Paris, he managed to get some coffee trees and decided to take them back to Martinique. About 1720 or 1723. He may have run back and forth twice, because none of the seedlings he brought for the first time survived. What is certain is that Deckler finally set sail from Nantes with the best saplings carefully cared for. Seedlings are kept on the deck in glass boxes, which can prevent seawater from splashing and have the function of heat preservation. Deckler's diary describes how his ship was threatened by pirates from Tunisia and how he survived a storm. The diary also mentioned that a man on the boat was jealous of him, tried to destroy the small tree and even broke a branch in a fight. Later, the ship ran aground and the drinking water was not self-sufficient, so Dekley watered the mowed saplings with the water he drank.
