No pastes, no extracts. We get the highest quality vanilla beans we can from a small family company that has been family owned for over 100 years- they really know their stuff! We then split the vanilla beans hotdog style and scrape out the exotic seeds to then steep the vanilla deliciousness in our milk. No lab concocted vanilla flavors here, only the real stuff!

Our founders, college sweethearts Gil and Sandra, used to go on dates in college to a lavender farm to pick their own lavender. And now, 9 years later and we still work with that very farm they grew their love at to source our lavender from. Grown in Harrisonburg, VA at Seven Oaks Lavender Farm- we grind up the lavender in-house and work with a local honey farmer for the extra sweetness you find in this flavor.

The tried and true only totally usedifferent. We use real vanilla beans (none of those pastes or extracts) and infuse the exotic flavor from the vanilla bean into our cream. We then freeze the vanilla grass-fed milk, cream, and cane sugar with liquid nitrogen and then add in some decadent chocolate chunks to create an incredible smooth and rich vanilla ice cream with some nice crunch in it.

Real vanilla should be decadent and rich, not just “plain”. Our vanilla is real, a justmazing, and incredibly smooth. With that on top of our grass-fed cream and cane sugar, it’s delectable. Then, we add in Mexican ground cinnamon to add an additional complexity. This flavor makes you feel like getting wrapped up in a warm wool blanket and watching the leaves flutter to the ground on a brisk Fall day.

Coconut and chocolate, edoes it get much better? This is cream is sure to make you feel like you are sitting on the beach sipping a coconut and snacking on some decadent chocolate and who can argue with that?

Add a side of sprinkles to party with your ice cream!

Winning the best ice cream in DC is exciting but it also puts pressure to continue to be the best. Th*is ice cream has won for years on end, the reason- no pastes, no extracts. We use real pistachios, make our own pistachio nut butter, and use that in our ice cream! No, our pistachio ice cream is not bright green because neither are pistachios!

Who doesn’t love Nutella? The Italian chocolate hazelnut spread is a decadent addition to any meal. But, add it into our grass-fed cream and cane sugar, then freeze it with liquid nitrogen and you have yourself an incredibly smooth, slightly nutty, and milk chocolatey ice cream.

House-made caramel and sea salt along with grass-fed cream and cane sugar made an incredibly delectable combo. Combine that with the creaminess and density that come with freezing ice cream with liquid nitrogen and yo inu have yourself an incredible combination.

Amazing butter toffee candied pecans inside of our local and fresh grass-fed cream and cane sugar, all frozen right in our shop with liquid nitrogen. The incredibly smooth ice cream has small sweet crunch that will be sure to excite anyone!

We source as much as we can locally and find some amazing local fruits that we use in our ice cream. The reason it is seasonal, is those fruits are only available locally for very limited times.
