There is a histroy how coffee was introduced to india..
The first record of coffee growing in India by Baba Budan to the hills of Chikmagalur in 1670 is following the introduction of coffee beans from Yemen .
Baba Budan lived in the 17th century in what is now Chikmagalur District of Karnataka. He went to Arabia to perform the 'Hajj', which is a pilgrimage to Mecca. On the way back, he came via Yemen. There he encountered a strange drink that the Arabs having. (Energy drink)
They made it by roasting and grinding the beans of a particular plant, and then brewing the powder in water. It was coffee!
When he tasted coffee, he was so excited that he wanted to take it back with him to India. But trade in coffee was tightly controlled by the Arabs. They wouldn't let anyone take seeds out to plant in their own country; they could only take the roasted beans. some how Baba Budan managed to get hold of seven beans, which he hid among the folds of his long robes. He left Yemen through the port of Mocha (from where the coffee by that name comes) and came back to Chikmagalur. He planted the beans - and luckily they grew!
