Talenti Almond Butter & Honey Special Batch

Life is basically just screaming into the void, so I'm going to go ahead and scream this review of Talenti Almond Butter & Honey Special Batch gelato into the void of it's old news and this point and maybe not even available anymore.

Talenti says: We blend almond butter with fresh milk and cream to create a creamy almond butter gelato before topping it off with a dash of salt and a swirl of wildflower honey.

It's very hard to categorize what makes a Talenti success. They're generally terrible at mix-ins, but their chocolate flakes are divine. This makes you think their mix-in free flavors would generally be better than the non-mix in flavors, but they have some terrible mix-in free flavors. Their nut flavors are generally pretty good, but some, like Pistachio, are just meh. Whatever the recipe for Talenti success, Almond Butter & Honey achieves it.

The almond butter base had a light, delicate sweetness with almost a floral hint to it. This was complemented by the strong flavor of the honey. The wildflower honey swirl had a dark, rich, and almost woody flavor that was also very sweet. I didn't get a swirl in every bite, but the flavor was so strong that I enjoyed alternating between a bite with the swirl and a bite without the swirl.

I'm rating this 🍦🍦🍦/4. Talenti, learn from this flavor! You have the ability to make some great gelatos, but you don't always do it!
