Caffe Panna The Joseph
CaffePanna'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.
The Joseph is labeled as "Strawberry ice cream with soft-baked snickerdoodles and cinnamon blueberry swirl"
The richness and ripeness of the strawberry are present from the very first bite. The ripe base provides a sweet flavoring that remains mild and mellow as the ice cream tempers. The downside to this strawberry ice cream is there is an icy aftertaste that leaves it to be desired. The creaminess and richness are lacking in this base as it tastes gummy. Fruity flavors are very hard to execute but Caffe Panna did a good job, but have room for improvement.
The snickerdoodle cookies are to die for. These cookies are loaded with cinnamon sugar and explode on your taste buds. The cookies stay very soft throughout the experience, which makes it even more enjoyable. The cinnamon blueberry swirl enhances the fantastic snickerdoodle cookies with an extra oomph of cinnamon spice. The swirl is a foreshadow of the sheer amount of strawberry and cinnamon-laced throughout the pint. The swirl offers a unique touch that packs a luscious sweetness to offset the density of the strawberry base.
I had my doubts going into this pint because I am not a huge fruity ice cream fan. The snickerdoodles are one of the best mix-ins I have ever had from Caffe Panna. The base does need some improvement, and the complimenting swirl nearly cancels out the strawberry and blueberry contrast.
