The "world's best" gelato puts flavor center stage. The man behind it is Taizo Shibano (44), who, in 2017, won a contest in Italy for his celery gelato. With his painstaking approach, he has developed more than 2,000 flavors using all kinds of ingredients. Now, he's facing his hardest challenge yet: updating the formula for his shop's signature flavor, milk gelato. Discover how Shibano was shaped by the dairy farm he grew up on, and his relationship with his father.
