If that's the case, it won't be bold enough for me. 
I'm entirely willing to give the new Gevalia blends a try, I just wish we could get a sample of each so I don't have to buy a whole package of each one just to see if I like them. As I'm sure is the case for most of us who have enjoyed the SBux blends, I'm looking for rich coffee flavor as well as boldness. SBux Verona and especially Africa Kitamu are the kind of flavor I'm looking for, in a cup size that's more than 3 or 4 oz.

Ha! Maybe I jinxed you.
In all actuality..... Your new line-up sounds great.
Let me know when you need my address to send me a sampler pack of each.

That thought crossed my mind too. If that's the case, and there is a kinship between the taste of Sbuxs and this upcoming Gevalia, I will be a very happy camper. I wonder Canada will get it first?? If so, I hope one or two will come on board and give us a review ; )

You have to wonder if maybe during their partnership with Sbux, some of the Kraft/Gevalia folks didn't study up on how to mimic some of the Sbux roasts/flavors...especially once it became apparent that the split was going to happen.

I am hoping these new Gevalia are decent. I have not tried any of the current Gevalia offerings, I just go by what is said here about them.

I think they all have been saying July of this year. I suspect here in the US we'll get the new Gevalia blends, but it would be nice to also get the full line of Nabob that Canada has...
i'm hopeful that the new Gevalia offerings will be good...but the Signature Blend was so horrific that I'm a bit skittish of getting my expectations up too much.
i did notice that in my direct delivery shipment coming this week, they included a complimentary Gevalia espresso pack, so we'll see how that goes.

So the announcements are nice... but do they give release dates on any of these new blends?

Well, I'd agree but although I'm not terribly fond of Gevalia, on occation I do like a decaf cap before I go to sleep. I add some sugar free flavor such as vanilla, or caramel.

Although to be honest, decaf cappucino feels like non-alcoholic beer.

Hah! Yes this is why I don't play poker.
However the tone of my original post was one of cynicism and with the offerings so far I can claim it was justifed, no? That must be worth something!
