taste and a thick and stretchy viscous consistency.

Viili is a mesophilic fermented milk product coming from Finland,
which resembles yogurt. Viili is the result of the action of lactic acid
bacteria and yeasts, which work together to form a velvet-like surface
and a rich smooth consistency of the Viili. The name comes from a
byproduct from the actions of the strains, a phosphate-containing
heteropolysaccharide, called viilian. Viilian is similar to kefiran
produced by kefir strains. Viili has been a cornerstone of the Finnish
diet for and is a super-food with multiple health benefits. It has, in
recent years, gained a world popularity much similar to Bulgarian
yogurt.

Viili comes in three forms — short, long and the original. The short
version has a consistency similar to commercial yogurt with a mild
taste. The long version has a ropy, or stringy, consistency that
stretches much like honey. Traditional viili has a slimy ropy
consistency and is mildly nutty in taste. Our Viili is the traditional
type.

Viili is a mesophilic product, which means you can culture it at room temperature.

This is an authentic Viili heirloom starter. Each pack contains loose
powder mix, in perfect proportions, of the strains required to make the
perfect Viili.
