First Massachusetts Coffee License

Look! It's a piece of coffee history, one of my favorite kinds of history.
And the honor of possessing the first coffee & chocolate license in Massachusetts - possibly in the colonies - goes to a woman:  Dorothy Jones in 1670.
Yay for enterprising colonial women who know the value of providing coffee and chocolate!
