You don’t have to love ice cream, but it helps. An ice cream
artisan from Corsica is heating up the gastronomy scene with wonderful,
new-concept ice creams and sorbets, including off-the-scale flavours such as
Davidoff cigars, Veuve Clicquot Pink Champagne and Ardbeg Scotch whisky with dark
chocolate.
Ice cream "scientist" Pierre Geronimi |
Created in a hi-tech laboratory
Pierre Geronimi and his team (his head of production and
general manager trained at the prestigious Paul Bocuse Institute in Lyons) perfected
his art – or “science”, as he terms it – and began exporting his ice cream-making
expertise overseas, serving Michelin-starred chefs. Describing himself as a “sculptor of tastes”, Geronimi has now brought his skills to Monaco, where a
new store has opened its doors.
If you’re visiting the Principality, don’t miss the sorbet
infused with Davidoff cigars and Diplomatico rum flavours, made by special
order in the shop’s hi-tech “laboratory”. I wonder if my friend Hans-Kristian
Hoejsgaard, Davidoff’s CEO, has tried it?
You can find other Pierre Geronimi shops in Sagone, Corsica
and Grenoble, France.
A luxury experience awaits.
