Laura Chenel Probiotic Goat Milk Yogurt Expands Distribution

SONOMA, Calif.— Laura Chenel, America’s original producer of high-quality goat milk cheese for chefs and consumers, is building on the success of its award-winning fresh and aged cheeses with expanded distribution of Laura Chenel Probiotic Goat Milk Yogurt. A flavorful, healthy alternative to cow’s milk yogurt, Laura Chenel Probiotic Goat Milk Yogurt in Plain and Vanilla is available in grocery stores throughout California including Whole Foods and Mollie Stone’s, New Seasons in Portland, OR., specialty retailers, and online.

Exceptionally fresh with a pleasantly mild flavor and a smooth, creamy texture, Laura Chenel Probiotic Goat Milk Yogurt is crafted in small batches at its LEED Gold-certified sustainable creamery in Sonoma, Calif. Laura Chenel built its reputation on the successful fusion of traditional French cheese-making techniques and California’s forward-thinking food culture to make America’s first commercial goat cheese. Now, the freshest milk from pastured goats at family-owned farms in the American West contributes to the unique tangy flavor of Laura Chenel Probiotic Goat Milk Yogurt. Strains of live and active cultures, including BB-12® probiotic Bifidobacterium, are added to the milk after pasteurization, creating a probiotic-rich yogurt that’s free of starch/grain additives, preservatives and artificial colors and flavorings. An extremely fresh product, Laura Chenel Probiotic Goat Milk Yogurt is subject to seasonal fluctuations in texture based on natural differences in seasonal lactation. In summer, the yogurt is lighter and thinner while in winter, its texture is thick and rich.

Laura Chenel Marketing Director Manon Servouse says, “You can taste the mild flavor of high quality, local fresh goat milk in each spoonful. Deliciously creamy and smooth with gut-healthy probiotics — this yogurt is a dream.” Now it’s easier to find Laura Chenel Probiotic Goat Milk Yogurt through the store locator on the website or online ordering.

Goat Yogurt for Better Health

Goat milk yogurt can be an alternative to cow’s milk yogurt for lactose-intolerant people or those seeking a dairy-based yogurt with better digestibility due to the smaller fat molecules and different milk proteins in goat milk. Laura Chenel Probiotic Goat Milk Yogurt has the added benefit of:

  • 1 billion probiotics per serving from BB12®, which studies have shown support the body’s immune and digestive systems and promote gastrointestinal health;
  • no stabilizers, texturizers, preservatives, artificial colors or flavorings;
  • seasonal fluctuations in texture and consistency that prove it’s made from the extremely fresh, non-homogenized milk of pastured goats.

As Laura Chenel enters its fifth decade of setting the industry standard for American goat cheese, it remains synonymous with quality and taste and meets consumer demand for healthier, more natural products that are often easier to digest.
