Oh man. OH MAN. I've been waiting for this day. Remember me? Kinda the new guy? I'm always looking out for the flavors out of Capo's HUGE stable so I can try the ones I've heard so much about. And finally--FINALLY. IT'S HERE. Peperoncino gelato. Holla(-peno)!
Here's the thing: it's one of those flavors everyone talks about, and it's...it's so not a flavor you're going to find anywhere else. (Let's just say it ain't one of the 31 flavors, ya dig?) And I've been waiting, and waiting...then I get in this morning. Walk past the gelato case. It's here. Throw down my bag, wash my hands, sample...yeah. I get it. Now I know why everyone talks about it so much. It's really good. Almost like the Fior Di Latte's bad-ass older sister, the one who curses a lot and sees nothing wrong with beer for breakfast. Sweet milk, sweet milk, sweet milk....HEAT. Listen to me. I'm gushing. SO embarrassing. But a peperoncino-scuro frappe? BRB:spicy chocolate.
It's not that hot. It's a nice heat. Granted I used to cook in a Mexican restaurant, so my spicy and your spicy are probably divergent. My friends frequently yell at me about my guacamole being a little...vibrant. But this gelato? This gelato is just right. Maybe I should sprinkle some chile flakes on top? Nah. Gilding the lily. So come get some! We're gonna sizzle that chill right outta ya.
Oh, yeah, almost forgot: LET'S GO PHILL-IES [clap clap clapclapclap]

This sounds fargin are-sum ... pair that up with a hop-forward Imperial Stout like Victory's Storm King, and you have a Moment.
