La Sorbetteria Castiglione
One of the longer-running specialists in the set, carrying a direct line of transmission from Pino, a gelateria the shop's own site calls 'legendary,' run by the Negrini family for over 60 years. Continuous open-lab production has been the stated model since 1994, not a recent addition.
