Pumpkin Spice does not stand well alone, but you can sure taste the flavor when you use 2 scoops of Cinnamon to 1 scoop of Pumpkin Spice coffee! Since it works well with other flavors, including Traditional, I gave it a 4 crown rating.
I have used the Traditional blend for many many years and use it alone or mix it with other Gevalia flavors (i.e.cinnamon , hazelnut or pumpkin). I can't say enough about how fresh it stays in your freezer, that is if it lasts that long. I have given this with a flavored coffee to good friends who also love it and consider it a treat!
I have Celiac Disease and need to eat and drink gluten free. I have read that some flavored coffees might be cross contaminated with gluten. Is your brand gluten free?
It's hard for me to tell as I mix flavored Gevalia with the Traditional coffee. I use 3 Gevalia scoops for 61/2 cups of coffee whether traditional or flavored. The best thing I bought was the Gevalia scoop. It makes perfect coffee as I lost my large spoon that I used for years.I hope this is of some help Nino.
