First Acquaintance of the Europeans with Coffee

When Kara Mustafa Pasha came through Vienna, he was so sure that he would capture the city and he began to plan the parade he was going to do after the invasion. He brought the necessary objects, which he was taken from the Topkapi Palace. As Jean Sobiesky the King of Poland took the command of the ally armies, Pasha's hopes were broken. Thus, he left all his belongings in front of the Vienna ramparts and he retreated towards Belgrade with his army. Saviour of Vienna, King Sobiesky took all he left (today, some pieces not even exhibited in Topkapi Museum are in the Polish museums).

Meanwhile an interesting incident had occurred:

With the treasuries, sacks of coffee seeds were found. When the Austrians saw the coffee seeds they said, "it seems that Turks eat goat faeces" and they tried to annihilate them. A Viennese man who lived in the Ottoman lands before realised the coffee seeds and told the Austrians what they were. Thus, the Europeans met with coffee.
