    Handy for small scale cheesemaker

    Posted by Sheila Lee Thompson on 14th Aug 2017

    Excellent product and extremely swift delivery to UK. Supplied with strong zip lock bag to keep the packet fresh in the freezer once opened - ideal for small scale cheesemakers. Much nicer texture & flavour than the starter culture I had been making :)

    Shipping was quick! I was surprised that you really can tell a difference in the flavor over the other culture. It was much more cost-effective to purchase this product than individual packets. Looking forward to doing more business with you!

    Good product

    Posted by Vera on 5th Jan 2017

    This is a good quality culture, keeps for ages in the freezer (just used up a batch which is two years old), and would recommend. Postage to France was fast, and will use The Cheesemaker again.

    Flora Danica is The Best

    Posted by Lyn on 21st Sep 2014

    I adore Flora Danica culture! It makes absolutely the very best chevre. I have had people from France tell me that mine is better than any they ever had at home; now that's a compliment! It is so light and delicate, I am happy to spend the extra money for this culture.

    Best Quark ever!

    Posted by Gaby Shackelford on 4th Apr 2014

    I couldn't wait to try the Flora Danica-Mesophilic Starter and it sure lived up to its reputation. I am using it for making Quark out of Goat milk and it is the best tasting Quark I have ever made. It makes it so mild and creamy. I don't think I will ever use anything different.

    OOOO... YES!

    Posted by Stablefood on 26th Jul 2012

    I skim most of my milk for butter and am left to drink the skim, thats ok ;-) ,BUT if you add the flora danica to the skim and let it mature, its soooo creamy and buttery you hardly know its skim. The cheeses I use it in turn out fantistic as well, it lends a buttery slighty nutty(?) Flavor. I have sampled both with and without FD and there is quite a difference. I won't make a cheese without it any more. I hope this review doesn't keep the cheesemaker out of stock!
