Batch & Culture
Products

Five jars. One living culture.

Everything starts with organic whole milk and live cultures we source from culture houses around the world. From there we go sweet, savory, or seasonal — always in small, documented batches, always in glass.

Plain Whole-Milk Yogurt

Simple, tangy, and cultured for a smooth, spoonable texture. The one we judge every batch by — eat it plain, cook with it, or build your own bowl.

Mango Cardamom Yogurt

Whole-milk yogurt with ripe mango and aromatic cardamom. Sweet, but not dessert-sweet — the fruit does the work and the spice carries it.

Kachri Raita

From the villages of Haryana

Kachri is a small wild melon that no one plants. It comes up on its own in the sandy fields of southwestern Haryana — around Bhiwani, Hisar, Sirsa and Charkhi Dadri — after the first rains, and village families walk the field edges to gather it.

The melons are split, dried on rooftops through the hot months, then ground to a tart, smoky powder that keeps all year. Stirred into yogurt it makes a raita with a sourness nothing else gives you. We buy our kachri from growers in Haryana and grind it in small lots so it still smells like the roof it dried on.

Pudina Raita

From North Indian summers

Pudina — mint — grows in a tin can by the kitchen door in half the homes across Punjab, Delhi and western Uttar Pradesh. In May, when the afternoon is unbearable, you pick a handful, crush it with salt, and stir it through cold yogurt.

That's the whole recipe, and it's the one we kept. Mint from growers a few valleys over, pounded rather than blended so the leaf stays green instead of turning grassy. Cooling, herbal, the raita you eat straight out of the jar.

Seasonal

Seasonal Batch

A rotating small run built around what's good right now — stone fruit in summer, citrus and cucumber raita when the weather turns. Announced to the list first.

We build every jar around the bacteria, not the flavor

Flavor is why you open the jar. The culture is why we make it. Each batch is a living population of bacteria chosen for how well it survives the trip to your gut — and nothing in the process touches plastic.

Cultures sourced from across the globe

Our starter isn't one commodity strain. We blend cultures from culture houses in Denmark, Bulgaria and India — thermophilic strains for the tang and body, plus L. rhamnosus, L. acidophilus and bifidobacteria selected because they survive stomach acid and bile rather than dying on the way down.

A wider gut, not a bigger number

Diversity matters more than a count on a label, so we culture for a broad mix of strains and stop fermentation while the population is still lively. Nothing is heat-treated afterward — heat is what kills the cultures in most shelf-stable yogurt. Every jar is dated so you know how young the culture is.

Plastic-free, start to finish

Glass jars with steel lids, paper labels, returnable crates. No plastic tubs, no foil-and-film lids, no plastic liners in the vats. Bring the jar back to the stand and we'll take a dollar off the next one — the same jar has been through our wash line more times than we've counted.

Live cultured foods are part of a varied diet — we describe what's in the jar and how it's made, not what it will do for you.

Pricing and jar sizes are being finalized
