Finally got around to trying this famed little ice cream parkour hailing all the way from Taiwan!

The single origin chocolate ice cream while rich in aroma, wasn’t as dense and chocolatey as I’d have expected it to be (think Awfully chocolate’s Hei ice cream, Merely’s Varlhona choco). The earl grey wasn’t very much exceptional, and tasted a tad artificial towards the end (a friend likened it to soap); while the Uji matcha honey got me choking due to the powdery matcha effervescent which I thought wasn’t as well blended into the ice cream on a whole. The honey taste was, distinct though. But the ice cream just felt segregated of its components as it didn’t felt well churned together. Maybe it was just a bad day at the parlor?

While they offer other interesting flavors like the extra virgin olive oil currant ice cream and Mont Blanc, I don’t suppose it would warrant another trip back for me as the serving scoops are pretty small as well. Pity this was a miss imo.
