We LOVE coffee in our house. In fact, we have a standing joke that says you know you are part of this family if you sat on your grandma’s lap taking sips of her coffee going “mmm”. We have all done it, and my boys are exactly the same, they always want sips of our coffee!
I received two bags of Gevalia coffee to do a very formal taste test. Seriously, very formal. The first was a bag of the Gevalia House Blend, a medium/dark roast. We found it to be very smooth, with no noticeable acidity, which I liked. My husband found it to be a little too light for him, so the next day I made a pot of the French Roast (dark). We both enjoyed this blend very much. Some French roasts can be bitter, acidic and one very popular brand always tastes burnt to us. But the Gevalia brand was extremely pleasant and flavorful without those less desirable traits. Because we both enjoyed the French Roast so much I began mixing the two so that the House Blend had a little more punch. This was a great mix and would be amazing if used in cold brewing iced coffee.
Both bags we received were ground although whole beans are offered in some blends. Gevalia, available at Safeway, comes in 8 varieties.
- Traditional Roast
- House Blend
- House Blend Decaf
- French Roast
- Columbia
- Espresso Roast
- Vanilla
- Chocolate Mocha
