"Difficult to rate this due to Covid suppressing their style! The ice cream itself is creamier than most I usually encounter and they boast a lot of flavours... However, today at the creamery, I still think they need to up the taste blend we found the vanilla, chocolate, ginger and lemon curd lacking in zest."
