Liebe Leser jetzt kommen wir nach Deutschland, wo wir verschiedene KaffeeKarten anschauen können. Sebastian, ein großer Starbucks fan in Deutschland, hat mir diese Karten geschickt. Bevor ich weiter schreibe, muss ich etwas Wichtiges erklären: Ich schreibe/spreche Deutsch nicht fließend! Verzeiht mir die vielen vielen Fehler die in diesem Beitrag steht. Ich versuch’s mal irgendwie.
Ich wählte Espresso Roast als Hauptbild für diesen Beitrag weil es diesen in jedem Starbucks gibt, und es schmeckt gut als Espresso aber auch als Filterkaffee. Natürlich findet man Espresso Roast in jedem Starbucks Kaffeehaus..
Eingeschlossen mit diesem Beitrag auch findet ihr auch eine Vollbohne-Kaffeekarte, die “Herkunft ist Geschmack” heisst. Natürlich bin ich etwas neidisch auf Arabian Mocha Java Kaffeeblend, die es noch in Deutschland gibt. Aber ich kann mich nicht an das letztes Mal erinnern, als ich ein Schlürfen davon genossen habe. Dieser Kaffee ist nicht zum Verkauf in der USA angeboten. Ich bemerke auch man findet keine “Italian Roast” Kaffee in Deutschland, welcher total popular in der USA ist.
Auch mit diesem Beitrag findet ihr eine Getränkekarte. Ich frag mich ob sie alt oder nicht mehr aktuell ist. In der rechten Ecke stehen Information über “Fruchtiger Tea Frappuccinnos”. Die zwei Varietäten sind “Mangospassion Frucht” und “Himbeer Johannisbeer”. Ich hätte gern die Gelegenheit die beide Tea Frappuccinnos zu probieren. Vor ein paar Jahre hat Starbucks ein Granatapfel Tea Frappuccino in der USA angeboten und es war einfach traumhaft.
Zuletzt seht euch an die 100% Fair Trade Espresso literatur und Shared Planet Information an. Ich nicht, ob es allgemein bekannt ist, aber Starbucks benutzt 100% Fair Trade Espresso in Europa. Auf der Rückseite steht mehr über die Ziele von FairTrade.
Okay, geniessen Sie ein paar Kaffeekarten auf Deutsch!

Our trip around the world with Starbucks continues: Next stop – Germany
Dear readers, today we arrive in Germany where you can look at various menus in German. Sebastian, a big Starbucks fan in Deutschland, sent me these cards. Before I write any more, I have to explain something important: I am not fluent! Please forgive my many many mistakes in this article. I’m going to just try anyway.
I chose Espresso Roast as the main picture for this article because every Starbucks has it and it tastes good as espresso or drip-brewed. Of course it is at every Starbucks coffee house.
Also included with this article you can find a whole bean menu, which is called “Geography is a Flavor”. Naturally I am a little jealous of Arabian Mocha Java blend, which still exists in Germany. I can’t remember the last time I enjoyed a slurp of that. This coffee is not offered in the United States. I also noticed that you cannot find “Italian Roast” on the menu, which is very popular in the United States.
A Starbucks beverage menu is included in this blog post. I wonder if it is old or if it is up-to-date information. In the right hand corner of the beverage menu there is information about “fruity Tea Frappuccinos”. The two varieties are “Mango-passion fruit” and “Raspberry Red Currant “. I would love the opportunity to try these two Frappuccinos. A few years ago Starbucks offered a pomegranate Tazo Tea Frappuccino, and it was just wonderful.
Finally notice the 100% Fair Trade Espresso literature and Shared Planet information. I don’t know if it is common knowledge, but Starbucks uses 100% Fair Trade Espresso in Europe. On the back side there is more information about the goals of Fair Trade.
Okay, enjoy the coffee menus in German!
Also, if you want to look at other foreign menus, I had a previous blog post featuring a coffee menus from Mexico:

Wunderbar!! Toller Blog-Eintrag, Melody!
Vielleicht verstehen ja manche auch die deutsche Version…:D
Hello Sebastian! Eigentlich erwarte ich ja nicht viele Kommentare bei diesem Beitrag. Wahrscheinlich habe ich die gewohnliche leser verwirtt. Wenig Amerikaner sprechen/lesen Deutsch. Hoffentlich ein paar neue leser aus Deutschland werden diese Seite finden…
Hallo,
yes, but I think you can guess many words…and it is good that you translated this also into English.
But nevertheless…everyone can see that you put much effort and passion into your blog entries.
I enjoyed reading this blog. Are Starbucks in Germany mostly serving American tourists?
What are starbucks like in Europe? Cuirous how they differ from the ones in the USA or are they the same? Do they all accept the rewards program?
awesome post! I love some of those pictuers! I also would KILL to try Arabian Mocha Java …maybe one day.
In Germany almost every Starbucks is located on places, that are 1.) shopping streets, 2.) train stations or 3.) at touristic places that everyone knows.
We just have a few single stores that are neighborhood stores or others…
That means that our stores are mostly crowded, because we also just have about 150 in the country…in big cities like Cologne, Berlin or Frankfurt, there are mostly tourists. And YES, I always meet many English speaking people there. 😀
What is also interesting, that in Germany, the stores are mostly deserted in the mornings but crowded in the afternoons. Different to many American stores that I have been to. It is not so much in common, that people in cities grab their coffee and breakfast at a Starbucks in the morning…that’s why many stores also open up pretty late every day. They are more a touristic attraction and meeting point for people in the afternoon.
Pretty different to the USA…we also do not have real reward programs here. I cannot use my U.S. Starbucks card. BUT they have sometimes, I think 2 or 3 times per year, cards that are given to the customers. And you can get a mark with every coffee beverage you buy and if you have 8 or so, you get a free tall one. Or last Xmas they had this card for merchandise…if you bought some merch articles like bears or mugs, you would get one for free.
But those card expire after a time.
I personnaly wish that we get to know the reward stuff like in the U.S. some day…the food is also a bit different. We have many products like in the U.S., but they taste different. For example the Blueberry Muffin, my favorite, looks totally different here than in the U.S.
Hope I could present some people here a bit more our stores in Germany. 😉
Hi Melody!
Thanks for the article…just yesterday morning we were “Google Earth-ing” a colleague of ours that just opened his marketing agency in Stuttgart….and looking around the various mapping options saw the Starbucks Germany location in the Stuttgart train station. So, I was looking at the store pictures and website right before our tweets yesterday.
We hosted 2 Daimler AG marketing employees in our office for a year, and I can tell you they could drink their coffee. And adding to Sebastian’s observations, I was amazed when they would make a fresh 12-cup pot of coffee at 5pm and then stay til 10pm. We started going through so much coffee I started buying the 5 lbs bags of PPR and having the store manager order other 5lb bag varieties!
They need one more column on the coffee offered!
Cheap Americas Blend = Pike Place Roast!
(Oh, and I do see that my Ice Venti Latte for $3.70 in Los Angeles is 3.50 Euros or $4.66
How impressive! Very gut, Ja?
@purple1, They do not accept the rewards program. We don’t even have it in Canada, never mind Europe. I haven’t been to a Starbucks in Europe but all the international stores I’ve been to have been drastically different… So I’m assuming Europe is no exception.
Very cool post Melody! I love seeing the differences of Starbucks in other countries.
I noticed there is the Sulawesi that is my ‘buttery, caramel’ suggestion! I haven’t tried the Arabian Mocha Java either.
They have Yirgacheffe as a regular offering…am I reading that correct? Nice!
Sebastian – are there any other roasts and blends currently offered that are not on the whole bean menu?
I think the UK is the only exception…they do take the Starbucks Card. Paid there with my US Starbucks card and coild use internet.
Actually, in Canada you can use a US card. We also can and do run a Card from Australia all the time.
