Summer may not officially be over yet, but in the delightful town of Asheville, the much-anticipated pumpkin spice season is already in full swing. The slight chill in the morning air seems to have set the stage perfectly for it. And the local spots, being fully aware of the rising enthusiasm for the seasonal flavor, have responded with a host of delectable treats to satiate every pumpkin spice lover. Here are just a few in the Asheville area that you’d not want to miss.
This collaborative limited release from Hi-Wire Brewing and Spicewalla ingeniously combines the flavors of Spicewalla’s Pumpkin Pie Spice and High Noon’s Sumatran coffee into a rich, delectable brew. While the unique Stout has been making rounds on menus since July, there’s a special tasting session planned at Spicewalla in The Grove this coming Saturday.
The Rabbit Hole is known for its variety of pumpkin and pumpkin-adjacent treats, and this season, the Chai-Spiced Pumpkin Pie is causing quite a stir. The perfect blend of pumpkin pie and the warming spiciness of traditional chai is indeed too good to resist.
The Hop’s Pumpkin Ice Cream is a frozen delight made with local kabocha – Japanese pumpkins grown by Lee’s One Fortune Farm. Starting Friday of the coming week, this seasonal treat will be available in both dairy and vegan versions.
The Pumpkin Cheesecake Latte from Summit Coffee is another must-try. This innovative latte starts with a pumpkin and brown butter iced latte, then concludes with a topping of pumpkin cheesecake cold foam and a sprinkling of crushed graham crackers. It’s an innovative twist on the traditional pumpkin spice latte that you’d not want to miss.
In the vibrant Asheville food scene, pumpkin spice season is more than just a cozy taste of Fall. It’s a celebration of flavors, creativity, and of course, our local produce. So, this season, get ahead of the carve and spice things up with these local pumpkin treats. Happy sipping, and munching!
