Skyr is an Icelandic dairy product, and it’s been a staple food of
Icelanders for thousands of years and has, in recent years, gained a
world popularity much similar to Bulgarian yogurt.
Skyr has a slightly sour dairy flavor, though much milder than the
tangy Bulgarian yogurt. It is thick and creamy, similar to the Greek
yogurt, but has a milder flavor. It is thick, creamy and delicious and
is best served cold.

Bacillus Bulgaricus starters are shipped in sealed sachets.
Transporting the packs (i.e. shipping them

perfectly OK and will not damage the live cultures. We use a
freeze-dried process that keeps the strains alive and comfortable even
during long trips in hot weather.
