Based out of Carpinteria and slowly expanding along the California coast it was late-afternoon on Black Friday that Rori’s Artisanal Creamery in Santa Monica was visited, the scoop shop at 910 Montana Avenue a bit understaffed as one of two workers was at lunch but the young lady still diligently letting guests taste flavor after flavor with a smile on her face.
Built on the hard work of Chef Rori Trovato and a base from Straus Family Creamery, the high Milk Fat percentage yielding a smooth consistency to which all-natural local ingredients are added, it was after tastes o Salty Caramel, Malted Milk and sticky English Toffee that decisions were made, an “Itty Bitty” Ball of Pistachio kissed by Black Pepper for just $2.50 bigger than expected and downright brilliant as the heat registers mid-palate with sweetness up front and nuttiness lingering.
Making Cones on-site and additionally offering a few baked goods it was between licks that two Cookies additionally spoke well of ownership, the Snickerrdoodle not about to make converts of those who complain the Cookie is too dry but still good though another round offering up Oats, puddles of Chocolate and generous amounts of Coconut Solids is so soft and chewy that it eats like a handheld bowl of Oatmeal without so much sweetness as to overwhelm.
