Famous Coffee Quote

The morning cup of coffee has an exhilaration about it which the cheering influence of the afternoon or evening cup of tea cannot be expected to reproduce. 
~Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr., "Over the Teacups," 1891

Gloria Jean’s Brings Back the Taste of the Season!
We're excited to bring back our fall flavor favorite, Pumpkin Spice, in whole bean coffee and K-cups®.
This is a limited time offer beginning September 8th. It's the perfect flavor to kick off your holiday season and to experience the Gloria Jean's difference - our world of flavor!
Our Pumpkin Spice flavoring was painstakingly developed over a period of many months. Selected from evaluating over 40 flavoring samples offered by our proprietary suppliers, our expert tasters finally agreed upon a choice that can only be described as the very best. With its wonderful Pumpkin Pie spice notes of cinnamon and nutmeg; this is a very special coffee flavoring. Experience it at your local Gloria Jean's Store today!

Letter to Our Readers

Bus Stop Blend! 

School bells are ringing all over America as you read this issue of Gloria Jean’s Coffee Companion. This bittersweet transition from summer to fall also brings with it the week-day ritual of millions of Moms and Dads... coffee in-hand joining their children in wait at the bus stop on what will become progressively chilly mornings. This brew is fondly referred to as “bus stop blend”... no doubt freshly ground and prepared from your favorite Gloria Jean’s whole bean stash!

The arrival of school bus blend also signals the return to a full-time office and workday commuter schedule, leading many of us on "auto-pilot" directly to a commuter coffee stop at a favorite coffee café or drive-thru to get fortified with another cuppa joe for the morning commute. Ahhh....morning coffee, what would you do without it?
Have another cup...and, enjoy the ride!

 

Exploding Caffeine Myths

As with any product used to excess, consumers often wonder about the health consequences. And researchers readily oblige. Hardly a month goes by without a report that hails coffee, tea or caffeine as healthful or damns them as potential killers.
Can all these often contradictory reports be right? Yes. Coffee and tea, after all, are complex mixtures of chemicals, several of which may independently affect health.

Green Tea Benefits
16 Things That Make Miracles Possible
courtesy amazing-green-tea.com

When you drink tea, you are inviting positive changes into your life. Why green tea benefits manifest as the Miracles In The Cup.
Green Tea Benefits #1:
Act as antioxidants
Many experts believe antioxidants can slow down aging and prevent heart disease, strokes and cancers.
Green tea is an excellent source of antioxidants. It contains catechins, powerful antioxidants found in large quantities in green tea.
Fruits such as pomegranate may contain as much as or more antioxidants than green tea.
But gram for gram and dollar for dollar, none of them packs as much punch as green tea.
