I've been wanting to try Talenti for a while now, solely due to this thread. So I finally get to a store that I know carries it, and I see 7 or 8 flavors, BUT THE ****ERS ARE OUT OF SEA SALT CARAMEL!
Sigh, gotta wait a bit more to try what's being touted as the GOAT ice cream here (store-bought).
I tried the Black Raspberry Chocolate Chip, and it was very good, but not fantastic. On first bite, it had a pleasant taste, but almost needed a bit more flavor. However, that made it easy to keep going, and in fact, hard to stop. So after a while, the flavor was better, and I quite enjoyed it. Not top tier, but very good.
Agree with everyone that the jar, screw-on lid, and labeling are top-notch, and make you feel richer as you eat it.
Came across this article about their origins, seems that it's only been available in most places for a couple years, and their start as a single gelato stand was less than a decade ago. Pretty fast growth and expansion.

Also, it appears that they have 19 different flavors available: this thread has a lot more tasty reviewing to do!
