Why People Seek Out Raw Sheep Milk
Raw sheep milk stands out for its naturally high solids content, giving it a rich and creamy character distinct from cow or goat milk. Most dairy sheep breeds are seasonal milkers, producing milk only during spring and summer months, which makes fresh sheep milk particularly rare and sought-after. Many farms that offer raw sheep milk are also the source farms for artisan sheep milk cheese.
