For many people, the beginning of autumn is signalled by the release of Starbucks’ famous Pumpkin Spice Latte.
Served either hot or iced, the coffee is flavoured with the traditional autumnal flavours of cinnamon, nutmeg and clove and is often topped with whipped cream and pumpkin pie spice.
The seasonal style of coffee was first served in 2003 and has since grown a cult following, with over 1.3 million Google searches a year for the seasonal beverage globally.
As nearly every coffee brand now has its own take on an autumnal drink, cosy clothing brand Pour Moi is hiring an official Pumpkin Spice Latte Tester to test all the seasonal drinks available at popular coffee chains and crown the best.
The findings of this important research will then be published on the Pour Moi site, so PSL fans can make an informed decision when they fancy sipping on a seasonal beverage.
The successful applicant will receive a payment of £300, plus a budget to spend on the Pumpkin Spice Lattes and other autumnal drinks, and their job will be to rate and review each of the coffees to reveal which ones give autumnal vibes from the first sip. After trying each spiced coffee, the applicant will give each one a score based on various factors: sweetness levels, flavour, cosiness, smell, and added bonuses (cream, sprinkles, gingerbread etc).
The job requirements for the role are having a solid enthusiasm for autumn, a penchant for pumpkins, lots of experience in drinking Pumpkin Spice Lattes and the ability to get to and from a range of different coffee shops.
Maria Ryan, Sales and Marketing Director from Pour Moi commented: “Despite the hot summer we have all faced, there are still fall fanatics who cannot wait for their autumn wardrobes to make a return. Because so many of our customers talk about how much they love everything about this cosy season (beyond the knitwear and snuggly clothing) we wanted to do something that ensures they have the best start to their favourite season.
By hiring a Pumpkin Spice Latte Tester we can help all fall-lovers tell the gourd from the bad when it comes to the limited-edition seasonal coffees on offer this year, meaning everybody can relax with a hot drink knowing they will feel autumnal from the first sip.”
