COFFEE, ESPRESSO, TEA & DRINKS

ESPRESSO

Our Bittersweet Espresso Blend is a marriage of several roast profiles and varietals that form a sweet-not-bitter flavor. This espresso serves as the foundation for a wide variety of our specialty coffee drinks, but espresso is not a roast at all; it is a method of preparing coffee. 

Espresso is a small, made to order, concentrated coffee consisting of liquid topped with crema. 

Some people like to blend it with steamed milk and a sweetener; some like to sip immediately as a "shot" in order to experience its many layers of flavor. This is up to you. We serve it just the way you like it.

Gibraltar (Cortado)

$3.40

Cortado 1/2 espresso, 1/2 foam-infused milk. The perfect afternoon drink, or for that coffee drinker who wants something strong, but needs a little milk to soften the espresso as it goes down. This drink is in between a macchiato and a cafe latte. Pull a double shot into a Gibraltar glass. The milk should have the consistency of a cafe latte and result in the same glassy, smooth, creamy texture as a cafe latte and cappuccino.

 

Cappuccino

Made in thirds - 1/3 espresso, 1/3 steamed milk, 1/3 foam. This is a very traditional way of making cappuccino. The milk should appear glassy, smooth, shiny and with no visible bubbles. The milk and foam should be blended or mixed to create a thick, creamy texture.

12oz $48oz $3.50
 

Cafe Mocha

1/3 espresso, 1/6 dark chocolate sauce, 1/3 milk, 1/6 foam. Dark chocolate is the first layer, and then you pull the double espresso shot. Then steam the milk to the consistency of a cafe latte.
