The red cherries which the sheep ate and become very active were taken home and the berries were the fruit of the coffee tree.
Sometime later, a passing monk observed Kaldi and the goats. When Kaldi told him about the berries, the monk thought they might be the answer to his prayers — literally. It seems that the monk was always falling asleep in the middle of prayers. When he ate the berries, he stayed awake.
