"Mount Desert Island Ice Cream has five shops mainly located in Portland, with additional locations in the District of Columbia and Japan. We visited their Portland location for the first time and were impressed by the delicious ice cream. The ice cream is made in small batches with a high ratio of butterfat and low air whipped inside, showcasing their dedication to quality. The flavors were all tasty and the atmosphere was cozy and simple. They don't list all flavors on the wall, so you'll have to visit to see the full selection. The line can get long quickly, so arriving early is recommended. The counter service was friendly and efficient. If you're in Portland, Maine and looking for unique flavors, give this place a try. We tried an ice cream flight with four different flavors - Metz Sugar Pill, Blueberry Sour Cream Crumble, Lemon Poppy Jam, and Butterbeer. Our favorite was the Blueberry Sour Cream Crumble, which had a rich blueberry flavor with a hint of sour cream and a sugary crust. The Lemon Poppy Jam was also delicious and fresh, with a generous amount of jam. The Metz Sugar Pill was a tasty take on s'mores, with a marshmallow base and graham cracker bits. The Butterbeer flavor was different, tasting more like root beer than expected but still enjoyable. There are many other flavors we want to try on our next visit. Overall, the food, service, and atmosphere were exceptional, earning a perfect 5 rating. Check out their variety of flavors and follow for more reviews across America."
