As many coffee fans may not be aware of the brew’s colorful past, the newly released guide from Coffee Lover gives a succinct overview of coffee’s illustrious history, covering influences from Ethiopia, Arabia, and Europe.

The National Coffee Association of the United States reports that the first mention of coffee in human history comes through folklore and a legend of a goat herder who observed the hyperactive behavior of his goats after consuming the berries from a certain tree. Building on this foundation, the guide from Coffee Lover goes beyond mythology to describe how coffee flourished in Ethiopia and then began to spread to other countries. “Millions of people all over the world begin their day with a cup of coffee, and millions more drink it throughout the day,” explains a spokesperson. “Coffee’s history is full of curiosity and mystery, and it makes a fascinating subject for those who love it.”

Along with a description of how coffee moved from the Ethiopian plains into the Arabian peninsula, the guide covers the historical context for the brew’s continued popularity throughout the ages. This includes the religious factors that led it to become the preferred beverage for Muslims in ancient Arabia, as well as the early rise of coffee shop culture.

Readers will also learn about how coffee moved from the Asian and African continents into Europe and why coffee drinking was opposed by the Catholic church for many years.

In addition to information about how coffee shop culture eventually flourished and became a hot spot for European intellectualism and philosophy, the guide covers coffee’s continued global movement into the Americas, including its relationship to the infamous “tea tax” that sparked the American Revolution.

Noting the fact that coffee is now a staple of modern life, the guide finishes with an overview of various types of coffee beans, roasting levels, flavored coffees, and specialist drinks like cappuccinos.

Philippines tops Southeast Asia workplace ranking with 54 companies

MANILA, Philippines — The Philippines has the highest number of companies recognized in Fortune’s 100 Best Companies to Work For in Southeast Asia 2026, with 54 Philippine-certified organizations making the annual list.  Released Tuesday by Fortune and Great Place To Work, the ranking recognizes companies that have demonstrated strong workplace cultures, based on confidential employee survey responses and assessments of workplace practices.  The 2026 list drew feedback from 1,322,537 employees across 10 Southeast Asian countries, with Philippine companies accounting for more than half of the 100 organizations recognized.  Leading the Philippine entries is Golden Arches Development Corp., the operator of McDonald’s Philippines, which debuted at No. 7, making it the highest-ranked new entrant. Balibago Waterworks System followed at No. 19, while Megaworld Corp. placed No. 22, moving up significantly from its No. 90 ranking last year.  Other Philippine-headquartered companies recognized include Arcanys at No. 34, D&V Philippines at No. 56, Outsourced Quality Assured Services at No. 66, Universal Robina Corp. at No. 82, GoTeam at No. 83 and Altius Inspiro at No. 96.  The ranking also features international companies operating in the region, including Cisco at No. 4, Synchrony at No. 41 and Atlassian at No. 100.  Charles Plumley, general manager of Great Place To Work Philippines, said the results reflect how companies that invest in their employees can build stronger workplace cultures and improve business performance.  “Global companies have long come to the Philippines for its people, but this year’s Fortune list illustrates what happens when employers invest in building high-performance workplace cultures,” Plumley said.  He noted that 27 companies on the list earned certification exclusively in the Philippines, underscoring the contribution of local teams to the recognition.  “Golden Arches’ debut at No. 7 brings that story to the frontline, where scaling a strong culture across restaurant teams is critical to delivering a consistent customer experience and business results,” he added. “Building great workplaces helps businesses compete on quality and productivity while creating more rewarding careers for Filipinos.”  The recognition highlights companies with different business backgrounds and histories. Golden Arches opened the Philippines' first McDonald's restaurant on Morayta Street in Manila in 1981 and now operates around 800 restaurants nationwide.  Balibago Waterworks, meanwhile, traces its beginnings to 1958 as a local water provider in Angeles City, Pampanga. It has since expanded to more than 90 municipal franchises across Luzon, the Visayas and Mindanao.  Megaworld, the developer behind major townships such as Eastwood City, Uptown Bonifacio and McKinley Hill, recorded one of the biggest improvements among Philippine companies, climbing 68 places from its previous ranking.  Now in its second year, the Southeast Asia edition builds on Fortune’s 100 Best Companies to Work For ranking, which has relied on Great Place To Work’s workplace research in the United States since 1998.  The complete 2026 ranking is available at greatplacetowork.com.ph/best-workplaces/sea/fortune.
