Wait, that middle description has me all thrown off.
The other two are as you would expect from their homemade vanilla and vanilla bean ice cream. So I guess the big questions is how well do they come together....
Oh, man, they should not have tried that in a mainstream ice cream. Mixing them together makes it worse. What is going on here. It's so... gross. Granted I hate alcohol in my ice cream, and this isn't even real alcohol in ice cream, but gross.
Yeah, I'll be eating around the middle section. So annoyed.
On Second Scoop: Ok, I figured out what the middle part tastes like. I think they were going for a GF Sunken Treasure vibe, but what I taste it root beer popsicle. That probably sounds odd, but realize that this is food science, not some high end scoop shop flavor. Nothing fancy going on here except a blend of natural and artificial flavors. Why am I trying to ruin this flavor? Because I hate it honestly. The flavoring from the middle has infected the side vanillas and that annoys me greatly. Granted, it's my fault for not reading the description more carefully, but I really was just expecting some kind of down triple vanilla flavor.
On Third Scoop? No, wait, I got it now. The middle tastes like vanilla extract!
Verdict? Bleck
Buy Again? no chance
It seems the ice cream game starting to fizzle down. It was like madness with new ice cream coming in. Have you tasted "tasty" ice cream line yet. I haven't tried it. Heard it is bad and most of the stores doesn't have second "flight" of ice cream yet. I think they pulled the plug on it.
ReplyDeleteI had issues with the bourbon. It tasted like bandaids to me. It kind of ruined it for me.
ReplyDeleteYou eat bandaids? Sounds like you’re just saying stuff.
Delete@Alek: ha, just posted my first run in with Tasty over on instagram, there were only a few pints and they were all iced over. Haven't heard many positives but would like to try it still (just been so busy)
ReplyDelete@TheIcon: yeah, the middle section ruins the whole thing :(
If you're eating around the middle section, can we have it? The bourbon brown sugar is the best part of any ice cream I've ever had! Sorry you didn't like it.
ReplyDeleteMe too. Literally bought my store out!
Deletemy sentiments exactly

ReplyDeleteDefinitely agree with Unknown!!! The Brown Sugar Bourbon is the BEST!!! I wish they made JUST that!!!
ReplyDeleteThe Brown Sugar Bourbon is amazing! I was just looking to see if they made that alone. Best Ever!!
ReplyDeleteOur 3rd container since discovering this. And yes the Brown Sugar Bourbon is Beast Mode. At our Shoprite is was sold out.
ReplyDeleteI love this ice cream ~ the blend of flavors taste amazing. I also like the Trio'politan chocolate.
ReplyDeleteI loved the brown sugar borbon its the best
ReplyDeleteThe triple vanilla ice cream is so good I really like the brown sugar bourbon. I will buy this again just because I like blue bell homemade vanilla from Texas but this 3 some here in English Indiana is great
ReplyDeleteI kinda like the flavors of the brown sugar bourbon vanilla, but my problem is with the brown sugar. It's so cloyingly sweet that I can only eat a couple of spoonfuls at a time.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking for brown sugar bourbon vanilla ice cream. Has anyone found it in North Carolina recently? If so, what store? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteBSBV is a limited flavor, so you are at the tail end of it's run. Are you seeing pumpkin and eggnog now instead?

I have never Googled ice cream until searching this Triple Vanilla today. I would buy a barrel of this trio if ice cream weren't such a bad food choice. I could eat Triopolitan all day.
ReplyDeleteI assume they meant "they taste like band aids smell"
ReplyDelete#1 - LOVE TURKEY HILL over all other brands!
ReplyDelete#2 - Great variety / many great flavors.
#3 - HOWEVER, the Brown Sugar Bourbon is (or, I should say, "WAS") to die for!!!! Forget about Santa; this past December (2022) I had been so looking forward to this UTTERLY BIONIC seasonal flavor to again return.
To my dismay, not a one to be found here in Northern NJ. Borderline devastating.
