Caffe Panna ABB Coffee Break
Caffe Panna's goal is to bring that same welcoming spirit and all-day accessibility to the heart of New York City, with an emphasis on delicious ice cream that marries elements of both Italian and American traditions.
ABB Coffee Break is labeled as "Cold steeped coffee bean ice cream, espresso swirl, coffee cake streusel and allies banana bread chunks. Definitely try this one as an Affogato at home."
The base of this pint is an espresso lover's dream come true. Cold steeped coffee uses a shorter roasting time to help rid of the bitter flavor coffee can bring to the table. There is also a nice nutty complimenting flavor in the aftertaste that congeals with a sweet cream flavor. Picture yourself getting a cold brew from Starbucks with luscious cream and nutty addition to your beverage. The way Caffe Panna can replicate this into a frozen dessert is miraculous.
The espresso swirl is pooling from side to side and is never lacking. The espresso flavor has a more concentrated density compared to the cold steeped coffee base. It does have a slightly bitter aftertaste but that is to be expected for how pure the flavor is. The coffee cake streusel packs a chewy cinnamon-laced mix-in that has a backend of clove. The cake has the correct texture like it is fresh from a bakery and melts in your mouth. Allies Banana Bread is not far off from the coffee cake with a ripe banana flavor and buttery aftertaste. The collab strikes a home run with how the cinnamon and banana flavors congeal together to strike a nice harmony on your tastebuds.
This one was a surprise for me. I was curious to see how the base ice cream, coffee cake, espresso swirl, and banana bread would go altogether. If you ask me it's a great way to combine three breakfast staples into one experience. If you are not a big coffee lover this one may not be your first choice from this pack.
