At this jewel of a cafe located in the financial hub of Singapore, it was the first time I was ask to choose my coffee beans for my cafe latte. This is a nice touch. I'm already warming up to a whole new coffee experience at Indie cafes like Smitten, Loysel's Toy and now Jewel Coffee.

| Apart from the espressos, Jewel Coffee also serves Drip and Syphon brew coffee. The chalk board with the illustrations clearly suggest different brewing methods to achieve "Body" and "Flavour" |
 |
| Gadgets of coffee enjoyment are sold here and the folks behind the counter would be more than happy to educate you on the use of these gadgets. |

| Here's the beans that's available to be bagged for brewing at home. |

| Boy am I glad that I came to Jewel Coffee. The taste of a perfect cuppa in the morning is my battle half won for the day. I chose the Fazenda Samambaia Brazil beans for my cafe latte. Tasting notes for these beans : Caramel Sweeteners, Soft Orange Acidity, Rich Mouthful. By the way, all coffee get double shots in Jewel Coffee. The caffe latte was strong, smooth and started with a mild citrus tint ending with a sweet note from the milk. |

And yet another... see what I mean. Seems to me more a fad now.
How is the ambience at Jewel Coffee in your opinion as compared to Smitten and Loysel's Toy?
Hi Cris If you're from Olla Coffee, shouldn't you be already knowing the market for indie coffee? :) Anyway, in a nutshell, Jewel Coffee being located in Shenton Way amidst the bustle during the weekdays but quiet on a Saturday morning. Loysel's serves a more laid back crowd who bothers to travel to the ulu Kg Bugis. Used to be quaint and relaxing but not anymore. Smitten has a warm cosy ambience where the seats faces the coffee bar and you tend to admire Mirage Idrocompresso machine. More relax casual crowd like Loysel's.
