Evergreen Acres Goat Milk Yogurt Review



Fro-yo girl here. While browsing the yogurt section at Bristol Farms in South Pasadena, I spotted goat milk yogurt from Evergreen Acres. Evergreen Acres is a small goat farm in Tres Pinos, CA. They claim to have the “only Grade A dairy herd in California consisting mainly of Guernsey goats, bred from pedigree stock originating on the British Channel island of Guernsey.” Their milk has a high butterfat content. They also make cheese, kefir, kombucha, goat milk soap, etc. And they must have ducks because they sell duck eggs.

Bristol Farms had two products from Evergreen Acres: thick yogurt topped with cajeta and goat milk custard. One 8 oz jar is $6.99. It’s not a bad price considering that it comes from a small farm and includes a cute glass jar. The cajeta sounded too sweet, so I picked the Goat Milk Custard. There was no nutritional information provided.

Goat milk yogurt custard: It looked tasty. The yogurt custard was super thick, soft, creamy, and smooth in texture. However, it also had a grainy quality that I didn’t like. The flavor was intensely sweet yet tangy from the honey and the goat milk flavor was strong as well. It was very flavorful but too sweet. It’s like a dessert. I’ll have to add tart fruit to be able to eat it.

You know you love me. X0 X0, fro-yo girl.

3.5 out of 5 stars.
