Dojo Gelato

Nice feature today from Cincinnati Business Courier’s Biz Blog on the Doj:

According to Christner, Dojo Gelato customers represent a wide variety of people together that includes a business and neighborhood crowd during the week at lunch; older individuals, tourists, and suburbanites on the weekends; and lots of families on Sundays. Young adults between the ages of 20 to 40 are also a big part of Dojo Gelato’s daily business.

“I wanted to do this since I was 20 years old, and I’m 34 now. This is not just some hobby, I live, eat, and breathe everything Dojo Gelato,” Christner emphasized. “I’ve realized that this is a marathon, not a sprint…”

Dojo’s Gelato for October 17th – 23rd

Is nostalgia a bad thing? We hope not. This week we are bringing to you a few of our favorite flavors from back in the day.

Bourbon Vanilla (We use a pure Ile de Bourbon vanilla extract, cold pressed by our vanilla supplier ensuring that this extract has the utmost of flavor and depth. There is nothing “just vanilla” about our Bourbon Vanilla gelato. Most ice cream connoisseurs would agree that vanilla is a good place to start when measuring up an ice cream shop. Our vanilla won’t leave you disappointed.)

Cap’n Crunch (Our Cap’n Crunch gelato is time travel. 1986. Saturday morning. Tight Underoos. You and your siblings fighting over the remote because you have t-minus 10 and GI-Joe is on local Channel 7 but the Bloodhound Gang still hasn’t solved the caper on 3-2-1 Contact. Decisions!)

Caramel (If Dojo had a motto it would be “No shortcuts.” Our caramel is handmade at our store, the moment we decide to create a fresh batch of Caramel gelato. We just have to find a way to make popcorn gelato and before you now it everything will be coming up Dojo.)

Apple Cider Sorbetto (We love apples as much as Johnny Appleseed. Expect Apple Cider Sorbetto to be one of many flavor variations of delicious fall apples available to us right now in the Ohio area. This sorbetto starts off bright and crisp then finishes with grown up tastes of cardamom, cinnamon and lemon. Pair this sorbetto with our Caramel gelato and we promise not to stare as you have a personal moment.) Vegan.

Malted Milk (“Cincinnati’s First Malted Milk Gelato.” Sorry, just a wee bit of local gelato humor. Anywho. Too bad you can’t stuff Dojo’s Malted Milk gelato in a box and sneak it in the movies. While you’re sitting in the theater, watching a picture show, this gelato would have the magical ability to transform the Glen or Glenda’s of the world into the Godfather I, II and II.)

Dutch Chocolate (Speaking of classic films, our Dutch Chocolate is pretty much the Dolemite of gelato.)

Cookies -n- Cream (After your mouth’s papillae got slathered in our Cookies-n-Cream gelato, there will be no turning back between you and our Italian-style ice cream. Grab a spoon. Grab a seat. And just let Dojo’s Cookies-n-Cream whisper its sweet, sweet, song to you.)

Banananilla (Just like grandmamma use to make. Or not. Either way, Banananilla wants to know if you’ll be its new BFF. This gelato has a whole mess of fresh bananas and mounds of hand crushed Nilla wafers waiting to be om nom nomed. You’re gonna blush.

Toasted Almond and Orange Blossom Honey (As the great RATT once proclaimed, “And you’re back. You’re back for more….”)

Lemon-Rosemary Sorbetto (Sometimes we light a few candles, burn some nice Nag Champa, do an hours worth of Kundalini yoga, then wind down with a pint of our Lemon-Rosemary Sorbetto.) Vegan.

Churro (If Ricardo Montalban where still around, this would be his gelato of record. All the way, without a doubt. Mexican Vanilla Bean + Cinnamon.)

Pumpkin -n- Spice (Could possibly be the official Dojo gelato of football season. We hope this flavor will become so popular with you that you’ll begin to wonder why all Pumpkin ice cream isn’t the color of, well, Pumpkin.)

See y’all soon!

Love, Dojo
