Coffee expert reviews pumpkin spice lattes

In honor of the beginning of fall, coffee expert and barista Wes Johansen taste-tested two pumpkin spice latte drinks -- and he definitely didn't hide his opinions.

First up was the classic pumpkin spice latte, which Wes called "super orange" and compared to a lava lamp:

"We're just getting a lot of good sugar and milk ... not that there's anything wrong with that. This guy gets a good three stars."

Then, after noting the irony in having a cold pumpkin spice latte -- considering that pumpkin spice is a popular cold-weather treat -- Wes took a taste.

"You can really taste the coffee better in the iced one -- which I think is strangely ironic." He went on to give the iced drink four stars.
