Charleston’s newest spot Oddfellows Ice Cream introduces new eccentric ice cream flavors

Brooklyn-based ice cream brand, OddFellows Ice Cream Co., best known for its out-of-the-box and eccentric ice cream flavors and creative capsule collections, is launching its newest Holiday Capsule on November 12. This five-flavor capsule collection is inspired by the holiday traditions of members of the OddFellows team. Details on these tasty flavors are below:

Buckeye – Inspired by co-owner, Mohan Kumar

• Flavor: A peanut butter-based ice cream with swirls of chocolate and mini buckeyes mixed throughout
• Inspiration: Buckeyes were a staple growing up in Ohio (the “Buckeye State”). They were my absolute favorite holiday treat. It’s like the best version of a peanut butter cup.”

Italian Cookie Crumble – Inspired by Marketing Manager Chris Divito

• Flavor: Almond paste base with chunks of rainbow cake, apricot jam swirls, and soft dark chocolate chunks.
• Inspiration: ”I’ve been wanting to do this flavor for years. It’s my favorite cookie. I’M ITALIAN.”

Olive Oil Jelly Donut – Inspired by Head of Retail and Operations, Andy Mullins

• Flavor: An olive oil ice cream with chunks of donuts and swirls of raspberry jam
• Inspiration: “Raspberry jelly donuts fried in oil are my favorite way to celebrate the oily miracle of Hanukkah. Putting them in a classic OddFellows flavor like Olive Oil is a nod to both my Jewish traditions and my ice cream family. Make a latke ice cream sandwich with a scoop of this: a delicious double mitzvah.”

Poppycock – Inspired by Head of Planning and Production, Abby Lavin

• Flavor: A popcorn based ice cream with swirls of caramel and cashew pieces
• Inspiration: “Poppycock is my mom’s favorite. The candy shop close to our house growing up would only stock tins of it during the holidays. Poppycock is one of my favorite treats now because it has become nostalgic.” 

Coquito – Inspired by Graphic Designer, Phil Negron

• Flavor: A coconut ice cream with rum, cinnamon, and secret spices
• Inspiration: “As a New York-born Puerto Rican, I hold a lot of pride for who I am and where I come from. I have a mom who makes Coquito every Christmas. No matter how long we spend apart, diving into a punch bowl full of cinnamon, coconut, and rum is our favorite way to celebrate our annual reunion.”
