the menu!
At Gloria
Jean's barristas prepare their coffees with finesse, each cup is a work of art. Order espresso in many
forms; regular, double,
short or long and try Macchiato, an espresso with just a dollop of steamed milk foam,
swirled. Have a Café Mocha, an espresso with chocolate syrup and lashings of foamy
steamed milk. Don't miss
Café Latte, filled to brim with steamed milk
and cream enjoy with generous fresh muffins or an enticing lemon meringue
pie, chocolate
mousse cake or individual chocolate dreams, the choice is yours.

Coffee,
like wine, has many characteristics!
Acidity,
that does not mean bitterness, rather a liveliness, sparkle or snap. What
it will tell you is when it is flat or dull. Colombian Supremeo has both
a bright and pleasant acidity.
Aroma
is the bouquet, that irresistible scent of coffee. Gloria Jean's Special
Blend has a complex floral aroma.
Body,
the lightness or the weight one experiences. Gloria Jean's French Roast
is full bodied.
Taste,
besides flavour in a flavoured coffee there is the pure coffee taste as in
a straight or single varietal, or rich and complex as found in certain
blends. Look for specific tastes whether earthy or sweet, nutty or
spicy.
Roasting
is complex process, it is this that gives birth to the unique flavour and
aroma. Coffee experts say that this is the moment of truth. It is the
varied flavours that roasting produces which satisfies diverse
tastes.

Perfect pack for a rich selection of beans
to suit every
palate and occasion.

On
the spot or to take-away!
Freshly
blended fruit ices, Café Frappé are cold concoctions, among them coconut

sandwiches, brimming with fillings; lettuce, fresh tomato, cheeses,

All
wrapped up to go!
Fresh
slices of chicken or beef, crisp peppers; red and yellow, a touch of
BBQ sauce, layered with salad leaves and crisp carrots, wraps to partner
piping hot coffees of
your choice.

Flavoured
coffees...
There are
many, taking every taste into account, from sophisticated Amaretto reminiscent
of almonds, the freshness of Blueberry Morning to the unctuousness of Vanilla Hazelnut Cream with hints of hazelnut and
creamy vanilla. Choose from gorgeous flavours with hints of cognac, cinnamon, rum,
butterscotch and whisky. Try Chocolate married with Macadamia Nut and German
Chocolate Cake a delectable mix of rich chocolate and coconut.
  
Gloria
Jean's Coffees have unique signature blends, achieving flavours that are
well rounded, more complete and different from the flavour produced by
varietal coffee. For instance Jamaican Blue Mountain is spicy sweet,
has a fleeting finish and is medium in body. French Breakfast Blend has an aroma that is
caramels,
a flavour that is rich, a finish that is smooth and a body that is
medium.
While the
Espresso Blend is nutty, smokey, bittersweet and has a medium body,
Italian Espresso, the home of espresso, is smokey, bittersweet, syrupy
with a full body. There are blends to please all palates.
