Handel Coffee Chocolate Chip
Imagine taking some fresh coffee grounds (on the ligher side, not a medium blend or dark blend) and granulating them into a nice thick base of ice cream. Handels is a homemade company that makes their stuff every morning (with over 30 flavors) and i have to admit this is much thicker than a classic ben n jerry or a soft serve ice cream. The overall coffee taste reminds me close to Steve's in essence but has a nice richer after taste.
The Chocolate Chips are all over the place, while they are not Graeters thick, they are still very present, think about SSC from Talenti and the amount of Caramel Truffles you do get, this is what the chocolate chips are like. Truly like a landmine with every single bite, and they are not rock hard like found in Ben n Jerry pints, these are on the softer side like a chocolate bar and are very rich in taste.
Overall the Coffee Flavor which has a lighter roast taste to it similar to Steve's (but without the cinnamon) and a landmine of Chocolate Chips makes for an amazing pint that tops Graeters.
Score: A
