WHY
SHEEP MILK

We believe sheep milk is the next big thing in mainstream health. Sheep milk as a dairy option has been around for centuries. Sheep milk is not only mild and creamy in taste, it's also highly nutritious, and because it's so easily and quickly digested it supports gut health and is a gentle alternative to cow's, goat and plant-based milks.

An A2-type milk

Sheep milk is inherently A2, with no need for testing or selective breeding, making it a pure and naturally gut-friendly dairy choice. Research suggests that A2 milk reduces digestive discomfort and may be a better option for individuals with dairy sensitivities. Additionally, the higher protein and bioactive peptide content in A2 sheep milk enhances gut health, immune function, and overall nutrient absorption.

Source of protein

Sheep milk is naturally high in protein, containing up to twice the protein content of cow and goat milk, making it an ideal choice for muscle recovery and sustained energy. Unlike many protein-enriched dairy products that require fortification or additives, sheep milk delivers superior protein density naturally, with no need for modification or enhancement. Additionally, the rich amino acid profile, including proline and branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), enhances tissue repair, immune support, and overall well-being.

Gentle on the Gut

Sheep milk is naturally gentle on digestion due to its A2 beta-casein protein and smaller fat globules, which make it easier to break down and absorb. Unlike cow’s milk, which can cause discomfort in sensitive individuals, sheep milk minimizes bloating and supports gut health. Its higher levels of short- and medium-chain fatty acids further enhance nutrient absorption, making it an ideal choice for those with dairy sensitivities.

Smooth & Creamy Taste

Sheep milk contains much higher levels of lactoferrin than goat milk and cow milk. Lactoferrin appears to protect the body from pathogenic micro-organisms such as those that cause bacterial, viral, and fungal infections and may also boost the body's immune function. Learn more.

UNTOUCHED FOR 13,000 YEARS

Sheep milk has been a nutritional cornerstone for over 13,000 years, offering a pure and unaltered dairy source that stands apart from modern alternatives. Unlike cows, which have undergone significant genetic modifications and selective breeding, sheep have remained genetically untouched, preserving the original nutrient-rich composition and superior digestibility of their milk. This ancient dairy maintains its naturally high levels of protein, healthy fats, and essential vitamins, delivering functional nutrition without industrial processing. For those seeking a clean, traditional, and highly digestible dairy option, sheep milk remains the gold standard.

Superior to Plant-base Milks

While plant-based milks are often marketed as healthier alternatives, many contain pesticides, synthetic fertilizers, gums, thickeners, and emulsifiers to enhance texture and shelf life. Sheep milk, on the other hand, is naturally nutrient-dense, requiring no artificial additives to deliver superior taste and health benefits. Unlike almond, oat, or soy milk, which are often highly processed and may lack complete proteins, sheep milk provides a rich source of A2 protein, essential vitamins, and minerals like calcium and magnesium, without the need for industrial fortification. Additionally, sheep farming has a lower reliance on synthetic inputs, as sheep graze on natural pastures, avoiding the large-scale monoculture farming practices linked to soil degradation and deforestation.

Heart Friendly

Sheep milk is naturally rich in heart-healthy fats, including omega-3 fatty acids, conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), and monounsaturated fats, which have been shown to reduce inflammation, improve cholesterol levels, and support cardiovascular health. Studies indicate that CLA may help lower LDL (bad) cholesterol while increasing HDL (good) cholesterol, reducing the risk of heart disease. Additionally, omega-3s play a crucial role in maintaining healthy blood pressure and preventing arterial plaque buildup, supporting overall heart function. Unlike conventional dairy, sheep milk provides these beneficial fats in their most bioavailable form, meaning the body absorbs and utilizes them more efficiently.

No "Goat-like" Taste

Unlike goat milk, which has a distinct and often strong flavor, sheep milk offers a naturally mild, creamy, and slightly sweet taste. Its neutral flavor profile makes it an ideal dairy choice for those who want all the benefits of alternative milk without the overpowering tang. Whether enjoyed on its own or in yogurt and kefir, sheep milk delivers a smooth, clean taste, without the goat-like aftertaste.

Good for the Environment

Sheep milk production has a significantly smaller environmental footprint compared to cow dairy, making it a more sustainable choice. Sheep produce far less methane than cows—a critical factor in reducing greenhouse gas emissions, as methane is 25 times more potent than CO₂ in trapping heat in the atmosphere. Additionally, sheep require less land, water, and feed than cattle, making them a more efficient and eco-friendly dairy source. Their natural grazing habits help promote biodiversity, prevent soil erosion, and support healthier ecosystems without the need for excessive fertilizers or pesticides.
